Suggest Treatment For Abdominal Pain While Suffering From Constipation

how long does it take for a doctor to chat or answer the question?
She has to drink plenty of water
Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on Healthcaremagic.
I have gone carefully through the details. The entire presentation could be due to constipation. My suggestions would be to ask her to:
* Avoid long gaps between meals. Take small but frequent meals.
* Spicy food has to be avoided.
* It is very important to exercise regularly.
* High dietary fiber intake has to be ensured. Plenty of green leafy vegetables are to be taken. Fiber supplements like psyllium husk can also be taken along. This has to be taken daily at dinner irrespective of whether the problems are present. Restoralax can be taken.
* Please go through the following for a list of fiber rich foods:

* You can give her Junior Lanzol (lansoprazole) once daily before breakfast.
Hopefully that would help.
