Suggest Treatment For Constipation

Sir, I regularly suffer from constipation. Bowei is not clear everyday. It takes almost 3to 4days for slow bowel movement. Even after that bowel is not clear. I regularly take fibrous foods and also drink a lot of water. Even after that problem persists. Kindly advice what should I do or what medicine should I take for proper relief.

Hi Dear ,

As per your query you have constipation even after taking fibrous diet and water . Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like Eating a lot of dairy products , Eating disorders , Irritable bowel syndrome , Not enough water , Some medications especially strong pain drugs such as narcotics and antidepressants .and acidity . I would suggest you to consult gastroenterologist , who may order test like endoscopy , barium studies and x-ray of digestive track . Doctor may prescribe laxative or treat as per diagnosis .

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
