Hello,

You may take high fiber diet with green leafy vegetables. Use Metamucil or Benefiber for the bulk formation of stools.

Use syrp Cremaffin plus. Use peg move powder.

Use millet rice to eat like foxtail millet or brown top millet.

If symptoms not improved please consult your doctor he will examine and treat you accordingly.

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