Hi so about 9 days ago I had some very spicy food followed by diarrhea, no problem that usually happens occasionally after I eat really spicy food. A week later I have more diarrhea but I hadn't had spicy food for 5 days or so but I concluded it was due to a sudden increase of fibre intake(Bought these fibre brownies with 5g of fibre each) I had about 5 of these brownies the day before diarrhea. My diet is usually very low in fibre so the sudden increase in fibre would explain it. Now a day and a half later I'm having consipation, I looked online for the worst cases like colon cancer(even though I'm 17) or intestinal blockage and non of these symptoms match my case since I only experience abdominal pain and cramping when I was having diarrhea and am able to still pass gas. I am only slightly bloated and have had only the absolute slightest of abdominal "pain". I wouldn't even call it pain that's how mild it is. So I was wondering how to relief this constipation or if a laxative need be, what laxative to take.
