Suggest Remedy For Severe Constipation

I was diagnosed with constipation with severe back up. I was in a lot of pain. This was 2 days ago. They told me to drink a bottle of Magnesium Citrate, I did this (3 pm ) and nothing happened (I waited six hours). So then I drank a second bottle of Magnesium Citrate ( 9 pm ). This seemed to work, but I still felt that I had some blockage. The next morning ( 9 am ) I decided to try the magnesium citrate again. I drank 2 bottles at that time. I spent most of yesterday in the bathroom and was still having a lot of pain. This morning I still have pain and feel bloated and full.
Help Please!!
