General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,

You have symptoms of constipation. Constipation occurs due to inadequate physical activity, aging, as a side effect to the interaction of certain medications, inadequate water intake & certain medical conditions.

Medical conditions causing such symptoms are IBS, neurological disorders(MS, intestinal pseudo-obstruction, hypothyroidism, poor blood sugar control.

You are suggested to visit ER & get evaluated & treated for any pathology causing such symptoms.

In the meantime take antacids, PPI's, Pantoprazole-40 or Omeprazole for relieve. Take high fiber diet, probiotics, stay away from junk food & addictions if any. Take homemade food.

Take stool softeners & laxatives at bedtime. Papaya both raw or ripe, prunes(dried plums), kiwi & green leafy veggies are natural laxatives.

Do regular exercises, stick to a healthy diet, get constipation treated. Severe constipation can lead to rectal bleeding, anal fissures or hemorrhoids.

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

Take care

Regards,
