Suggest Solution For Chronic Constipation
I suffer from chronic contipstion for years. I regularly take senna every night and stool softeners. So far these have helped but nowadays their effectiveness is low. I also have hiatus hernia and when I sit on the toilet
I burp a lot. My sphincter muscle has also become tight and pains a lot. Do ia any solution as my food is full of fiber and I have a regular regiment.
