Is Miralax The Right Medicine For Constipation And Hemorrhoids?

I have had constipation for almost a year. I can go but it s always hard and I take Mirlax and prune juice daily to soften my stool. If I don t do this I get pain when it exits at the rectum with blood. My Dr said I had hemmeroids and anal fissures when they inspected. I just recently on Wednesday got a yellow direha after having a random stomach cramp. My stool is still loose with mucus. I just moved haven t found a new Dr is this a cause for concern?
