- Take laxatives candies containing senna until you get a bowel movement
- Increase water intake
- Take lactulose or other stool softeners
- Take psyllium or plum supplement as fiber supplement to induce bowel movement.
- Can apply anal enema
If not success, then, go to ER if this abdominal discomfort is unbearable to you.
