No Bowel Movement, Passing Gas. Need To See Doctor?
I just got back from Italy last Friday and have not had a bowel movement since. I don t even have the urge to but I have been passing gas. I normally have bowel movements daily in the morning and that did not change when I was in Italy, only since I got back. Should I see my doctor or is there something I can do to rectify this on my own? Please advise.
