Hi...

Welcome to healthcare magic.

As per your complain you have constipation problem that can treated by proper diet and lifestyle modifications..

Take a more water per day.. Avoid gaseous foods like cabbage, carbonated drinks and cauliflower...

Take a high fiber foods like whole grains, oats..
Fruits like kiwi and peach helpful in digestion.

Bulk forming agent like psyllium is helpful to you..
Bowel habit training is helpful.

After taking this much care still symptoms are present than consent a gastroenterologist for further diagnosis.

I hope my guidance helpful to you..
Take care.
