Hello,
Your symptoms seem to be related to constipation. I recommend using over the counter laxative such as Miralax. I also recommend taking daily probiotics.
You should drink liquids and eat a fibre-rich diet. If the symptoms continue you should use enemas.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
