You can use stool softner also.
Bulk forming agent like psyllium or methyl cellulose can use in severe constipation.

Osmatic laxative like polyethyleneglycol (miralax) or sorbitol can use.

Lubricants like mineral oil can use for short time.
Lubricants soften stool and facillate passage for stool.

Under doctor suggestion you can start stool softner.
