Hi,
Your symptoms are related to constipation. However, a medical approach is needed to determine what is causing this constipation:
- diet (not enough fiber)
- candida or parasitic infection of intestine
Therefore, exam of stool for such infections is advised together with eating more foods high in fiber. In addition, taking sena supplements or tea and oral lactulose can help soothe the stool and ease defecation.
Hope it helped!
