Suggest Treatment For Constipation And Pain During Bowel Movement

Hi,



I found myself with slight constipation, and after pushing while going to the restroom I got a sharp pain through my whole abdomen. It felt like i tore a muscle and my abdomen area feels a little bit sore now. Can you please give me an idea of what this might be? I am 43 but in good health, i have had bad heartburn in the past but none for a few months now.

history of constipation.
if you have a long history of constipation and /or observed blood in stool then visit a gastroenetrologist at the earliest.

advice:
-warm water intake
-"fresh oranges" and pear
- avoid COLD milk and yogurt and AVOID junk food(NO burger , pizza) altogether
- drink strong coffee (once only) on empty stomach to aid in bowel movement
- include fiber rich food in your diet
- OTC lactulose drug maybe used also

hope the bowel movement would be normal.

in case you do not pass stool, then its better to meet your treating physician and/or gastroenterologist.
