Suggest Treatment For Constipation, Nausea And Severe Pain In The Back

My daughter who is 25 has chronic constipation and has not really had good a bowel movement for a few weeks. She is now having severe pain in her back and is very nauseous. She has tried Miralax and even a enema and nothing has been effective. Is this an emergency?

Thank you very much for contacting healthcare.

According to your complain you have problem of constipation and abdominal pain from last weeks that may be because of lack of fiber foods and water intake in diet.

Lack of gastric motility cause constipation.
Bulk forming agent like psyllium is helpful to you..

Take more fiber foods like whole grains, oats...etc
Drink more water per day.

Fruits like kiwi ,avocado and peach helpful in digestion.
Lemon water give quick relief in indigestion.

Avoid gaseous foods like cabbage, cauliflower, carbonated drinks, turnips....etc.
Do some exercise more than minute 20 minutes.


Bowel habit training is helpful in constipation.
Use garlic and ginger in food for proper digestion.

After taking this much care still symptoms are present than consent a gastroenterologist for further treatment.
