Severe Constipation And Bloating, With No Relief After Using Enema And Microlax. How To Treat This?
Hi,
For the past 7 days I have not been able to go to the bathroom. I feel bloated' heavy and feel my abdomen pushing up. I'm not very hungry and at times nauseous. I've tried 2 enemas, 2 micro lax, 3 colace, and 1 liter of the powder you mix with water and drink to clean your bowels for a colonoscopy. I've been able to go very little for 3 or 4 times. But it is so little that I don't feel any better. My stomach is swollen. What do I do"

Hello,
I have gone through your query and understood your concerns. Based upon your symptoms it is almost clear that there is obstruction but to know the level of obstruction you need to go for ultrasonography in your case even a plain xray abdomen can detect the cause. So, dont make any late to consult your doctor as it should be treated earlier. Thank you.
