HI
Well come to HCM
Thank for choosing to HCM
I had gone through the history given here, the history is due to constipation only just eating fiber diet for day to two will not relieve the constipation but you will have to keep taking fiber diet and drink more water for long time without fail, along with that keep the regular habit for going to defecation, no matter if you do not pass the stool, still be inside for some time.
Medication:- Isabgol powder can be tried prior to bed
Advise:- To rule out the pathological constipation better to consult the gastroenterologist.
hope this information helps.
