Suggest Treatment For Chronic Constipation And Lower Back Pain

I have constantly been going through bad constipation for months now. It's getting to the point where i have bad craps and lower back pain. I take Activia and probitics everyday and still don't seem to help. I also exercise and drink lots of water still don't help. And when i do go I feel much better and feel the pressure release. I'm worried that it might my one of my intestine. Help please.

Hi there.

For a normal bowel movement and motion, you need to eat diet rich in roughage like fresh fruits and green leafy vegetables which will add bulk to the stool. Drink 1-2 litres of water daily. You can take Tablet Dulcolax once or twice a day to pass normal stools for about 4 days. Change your diet. Avoid junk food, processed food, too many probiotics. Avoid stress. Get 6-8 hours of sleep daily.
