Been Constipated, Abdominal Pain, Gassy. Taken Glycerin, Senna-S. What Is Wrong?

I do not usually have regular bowel movements but have been slightly constipated for a few days. I took a glycerin suppository yesterday evening and got no relief so took 2 Senna-S several hours later and my bowels have barely moved at all. It was really painful to even move last night and today I have been really hurting high in my abdomen and have been unable to release any gas

Hi,
There are many causes of constipation including medications, poor bowel habits, low fibre diets, abuse of laxatives, hormonal disorders, and disease primarily of other parts of the body that also affect the colon.
Take two Herbolax tablets or Garlic capsules at night with hot water daily for one week.
Avoid spicy and oily foods.
