Hello,

Eat high fiber diet, drink plenty of water, do regular exercise and also eat whole grain food.

If not improved, use syrup Lactulose at night. You can also use stool softener like Cremaffine plus or Movicol sachets.

If still not improved, then please consult your doctor, he/she will examine and treat you accordingly.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Penchila Prasad Kandikattu
