Suggest Treatment For Chronic Constipation During Pregnancy

I am currently pregnant and have had previious issues of chronic constipation. I have been to the ER on this saturday for this. During my visit I was given an IV, drank miralax, given an enima, and then a more hardcore enima. This has not worked and now my insides are soar. Should I be concerned and should I go back?
