General Surgeon,  's  Response
Hello,
I can understand your concern towards your symptoms
1) You are experiencing constipation due to difficulty in passing hard stool.
2) You should take adequate amount of wate daily (2.5-3 lit/day), fiber-rich diet to prevent constipation.
3) You can also take stool softener daily at night to reduce consistency of stool which facilitate defecation.
4) If you have constipation since long time, then you need to be evaluated to find out cause of it and for this I would recommend you to undergo colonoscopy once.

Hope I have answered your question. If you have any further questions I will be happy to help
