Is It Safe To Take Probiotics For Constipation?

I have had constipation for the last two months. I started taking a pro biotic a month and a half ago. It appears that it takes more and more laxative to cause a movement. Phillips MOM works better but if I get a little to much it comes out too loose. I don t want to have to use MOM or a laxative for that matter. One more thing. I could put up with a little constipation if it wasn t for the fact that it makes me feel like my anus is on fire and I pass alt of gas until I have a movement. When I have a movement the gas and burning goes away until I need another movement. My doctor isn t telling me why I am suddenly having this constipation problem or giving me a way to get rid of it. Can you tell me what is going with me and how I can solve the situation?
