How to get rid of constipation?




I have recently had really bad constipation and haven’t been able to go to the loo within 4 days. I went to the doctors about it like a year ago they gave me something but that also didnt work.

My questions are:

Why do you get constipation?
How do you get rid of constipation?

I am thinking of getting a colon cleanse as I have been experiencing constipation for a while now. What I need to know is how does a colon cleanse help the body and how effective is it? Also, is it worth the money and how long would I have to use it?

I don’t mean as a maintenance tool, altho that is desirable info. Right now I mean for immediate relief for constipation. It’s not for a baby. It’s for me as a 52 yr old adult. If it matters my weight is 119 lbs. I realize my question will elicit some giggles (who can help it) but if anyone has real info I’d like to hear! The constipation is due to daily meds so that’s where any maintence info would come in.

I am having pressure, not pain, but discomfort like on or around where my pubic region (or possibly pelvic bone) and I was wondering if this discomfort could be caused by constipation and is that normal for only being 4 weeks and 2 days pregnant or is it a symptom of a coming miscarriage?

Ever since I had my gallbladder removed, I’ve had problems with constipation. I know prune juice helps with that issue, but problem is I don’t know how much to drink so that it won’t cause me to have diahrreah (I know I misspelled that). Anyway, how much prune juice would be enough for constipation issues?

My 85 year old father has a great deal of difficulty with constipation. He has tried both over the counter and prescription medications in all sorts of dosages and combinations with little to no relief. If anyone knows of any fruit shakes or any other home remedies I would greatly appreciate your comments.

Do I have irritable bowel syndrome?




I’m 16 and have constant stomach problems. It seems to go through a cycle of intense stomach pain when I eat ANYTHING to long periods of constipation and trouble passing gas. I have family history with both irritable bowel syndrome and celiac disease. I drink a half a gallon of water each day and really have any soda. I just want to know what I have and what I can do.

I had extra cheese pizza last night and had diarrhea. Also I get alternating constipation and diarrhea most of the time even when I don’t eat dairy.

How do you cure constipation?




I’ve been taking ducolax pills for my constipation about 3-4 times a week. I’ve become immune to them now from taking them too much and they don’t work for me anymore. I’ve tried to cure it naturally but after 2weeks it still didn’t work and my constipation got worse. Should I used a different pill such as citrucel? What else can I do to cure my constipation?

I missed my period about a week and a half ago I took multiple HPTs and they said positive. Ive scheduled a doctors appointment. I’m curios if anyone else was constipated as well. (I’m not sure of its too early for constipation or what) thank u!

I suffer with really bad trapped wind and constipation. When I rub and squeeze my belly for a long time, wind eventually passes. Would wearing a shiatsu massage belt on a regular basis relieve my wind and constipation?

How do you cure bad constipation?




I have bad constipation and I’ve been using ducolax pills to cure my problem. I used them four days in a row and now I’ve become immune to them. I tried curing it naturally but it was making it worse after 2weeks. What should I do to cure my constipation? Also does citrucel work better than ducolax and should I used that instead if I should cure it with pills?

I’ve been contemplating vegetarianism for many years now but with so many intestinal issues I figure why bother? I primarily have IBS with constipation–not that anyone needed to know that. My doctor has suggested vegetarianism to relieve the constipation, but so much of the vegetarian diet consists of such gassy foods. Does anyone have any advice for me?

My nine-year-old Tabby has had bouts of constipation throughout her life, but never quite like this. Will giving her raw or undercooked pork help her out?
