Category — Constipation-Relief

So about 3 weeks ago, I started to experience stomach pains, accompanied with Diarrhoea. After the bout of Diarrhoea, I have had Constipation ever since, but I had a bowel movement every day, revealing small pellet stool. This morning I went to the toilet, and to my discovery, there were bits of Dark green in there, mixed with a darkish brown colour and chunks of white(?) don’t know what that is. Been three times today but my latest trip discovered that I have no longer pellet like stool but pretty normaly shaped brownish coloured poop? This is still accopined with awful stoach pain, but I’m taking Buscopan for the relief. I would norally take two per day but I have had to exceed to three today, thinking about taking a fourth as I’ in pain as I type. Damn I freakin hate being ill, especially when it’s something to do with your bowels.

Am I coming to the end of constipation? What’s wrong with me?

Everyday for the past few weeks I have been constipated or had diarrhea..it’s driving me crazy and I just want to have a normal bowel movement! My belly is real swollen and I have really bad diarrhea now. And it’s not the relief kind of diarrhea. I feel like I’m going to puke all the time. And I’ll be real constipated and then try to make it better by eating something that will make me go, and then get really bad diarrhea. I’m 12. Can’t afford a doctor, and my own mom never even checks on me to make sure i’m eating!! muchless eating normal! and now i’m really sick and it’s the middle of the night and have no one to help me cause my own mom won’t help! Someone please tell me what to do about this and how I can cure it, please help me im getting really worried.

I am a 43 year old woman with IBS. Usually my tummy does pretty good, or I should say normal BM’s. Lately not so good. I go from severe constipation for 4 days or so, to severe diarrhea for 2 or 3 days. This has been going on for about 3 weeks now. Currently I have gone 6 days with no BM. I have tried Phillips M.O.M., drinks lots of water, and OTC enemas and stool softeners. No relief and I am miserable. Any suggestions?

i’ve been on the pill for about half a year now. the pill i’m on is called celeste. recently, i’ve been suffering with constipation. i find it very difficult to pass stool! it really hurts and my bottom bleeds! i have a very poor diet. i don’t eat much high in fibre and i know this is a contributer to constipation! my mum bought me some senna tablets, which are classed as a herbal remedy for tradional use for the relief of occasion constipation! i haven’t taken them yet as i wanted to know if they will effect the pill, as i don’t want to get pregnant. will they be ok to use. help?

It seems a bit gross, but I have read that you can usually cure someone else’s constipation by inserting a lubricated finger into the sphincter, and rubbing the sphincter and the bottom of the rectal vault quickly in a circular motion. But apparently it’s difficult to do this to yourself, since you already "know" the path of your finger. Sort of like how it is difficult to tickle yourself.

After a while, this should - in most cases - begin to induce peristalsis. The person whose anus is being rubbed will have a strong urge to defecate.

Now obviously this will not always be a first choice for constipation relief … but why isn’t it more popular or well-known in general?

For instance, I did this once for my girlfriend. It provided very fast relief for her, as opposed to waiting for a laxative to take effect, and without the mess an enema can produce.

If two people already have an intimate relationship, this is hardly shocking stuff.

Why don’t more people know about the digital induction of rectal peristalsis?

Has anyone ever taken mineral oil for relief of constipation? If so does it make you go like once or is it an all day thing? I know its supposed to lubricate your intestine or something. hope ssomeone can help!

So i have been constipated for over 2 weeks now.
I have tried miralax all week and dried prunes.
I have been drinking tons of water.

I have terrible gas but no bowel movements. my stomach is killing me.

please help.

I have been constipated for a long time now, yesterday I ate 5 prunes some celery and 3 oatmeal rasin cookies and about 3 bottles of water. I already went one time today but im still really constipated. I drank a glass of high fiber plum juice about an hour and a half ago along with 4 glasses of water. Is their anything else I can do to help make myself poop?
please help me
I just had 3 more glasses of water and Im getting chili for dinner tonight, Do you think I will be able to poop by tommorow morning? the poop I took earlier today was normal sized even after all the fiber I ate
How long should I expect to wait
drank another glass of water and was able to fart twice
Jogged for 10 minutes nonstop
ate chili and another whole glass of prune juice
ate chili and another whole glass of prune juice

Ok i don’t understand why, because my diet if pretty good and i drink heaps of water, but i am really badly constipated at the moment. There is just no bowel movement at all and im starting to get bloated and feeling very uncomfortable.

I’ve taken a laxative and some psyllium husks, but nothing. I really need an instant relief before work tomorrow… please help.
