1. is her Thyroid profile normal, and is constipation and blood in stool due to Piles or else (was P/R examination carried out?
2. blood can be due to over straining or constipation can be due to fear of blood, so consult with your health care provider.
3. does her laxative contains any Aluminium?
4. any Physical inactivity?
5.
. attempt for bowel movements 15-20 minutes after breakfast when gastro colic reflex is strongest.
. give her diet rich in fiber: beans,baked potato, peas,brocooli, corn, apple, oranges, peaches, wheat,isaphgol,and cereals.
. give her luke warm water to drink with 5 cashew nuts and 5 raisins boiled in it, and as constipation leads to urinary tract infection, make sure she is taking at least 8 glasses of water everyday.
