What Causes Acute Constipation And Smelly Stool?

Brief Answer:
consider my guidelines to avoid constipation

Detailed Answer:
Hello XXXXXXX Greetings

I had gone through your question and I can understand your concern

Due to Constipation stool may get hardened in the intestine and intestinal bacteria may ferment the stool content leading to production of foul smelling and flatulence

This excessive formation of gas and decreased motility of intestine leads to indigestion and less absorption of nutrients from the intestine which may manifest as weakness drowsiness or a headache

I would advise you following guidelines
Have plenty of dietary fiber and fresh fruits or vegetables
take good amount of fluids like water and fresh juices
Avoid fatty fried spicy junk food like pizza burgers and carbonated drinks
you can laxative or stool softening agents to pass the motion in case of chronic constipation

I hope you will find my response helpful and informative please feel free to ask for more clarification
Best wishes
