Advise Alternate Treatment For Severe Constipation
Hello, I suffer from what people like to call severe constipation. My problem goes much deeper than that. I no longer have bowel movements. I have colonics performed at least twice a week. What can I do? Nothing works. No laxative or bulk forming fiber works. Please advise???

Hello,
Your symptoms seem to be related to constipation. I suggest using over the counter option like Miralax. I also suggest using a stool softener. If constipation continues you may use enemas or suppositories. I also suggest drinking a lot of liquids.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
