Hi,
Thanks for writing in.
Change in food habits can have asignificant effect on stool habits.
Yes change from vegetarian to non veg can have a adverse effect on motions.
I would suggest the following.
1. Consume plenty of water that is at least 2 litres per day.
2. Ensure proper amount of fiber by way of vegetables and fresh fruits per day.
3. Regular exercise for at least 45 minutes per day.
4. Stool softners for only aweek to regularize the bowel movements.
5. Avoid constipating fast foods.
6. Probiotics like buttermilk or yogurt will help in digestion.
7. For prostatic infection a course of antibiotics and regular ejaculations to reduce the congestion will be helpful.
I hope my advice helps you in relieving your digestive problems.
If you still have queries please write back to me.
With regards
