Acute Constipation Which Eases Out Only With Stool Softeners. Had IBS Earlier. How To Manage This Condition?

I suffer from acute constipation - I have tried everything possible fibre, water, plant enzymes and stool softener - however I would like to know how I can manage the constipation without stool softeners. Food triggers are rice, bread, chocolate and anything with iron in it. I used to have IBS but now I think it is just acute constipation
