Suggest Treatment For Severe Constipation

I must admit my embarrassment, however my fear has overriden. My situation is as follows, Ive always experienced difficulties passing waste. (Pooping) Its normal for me ta only have relief a couple times per week. (Aver every 3days)Always accustom to some form of discomfort. At this point I can NO longer shun my symptoms! For aprox a year now I ve been releasing red blood when going to bathroom. At first disregarding it as outcome of strain. Well Im now to the point of releasing what seems to be more blood than waste. Often noticing mucus, and lower back tension,pain on one side or the other. WHATS WRONG W/ME=PLEASE HELP

Hello,

You need not worry much, just relax. Constipation is common in people who do not have adequate diet rich in fiber and the blood coming out may be due to the pressure exerted during the defecation process.

Having food rich in fiber, like green leafy vegetables will reduce the constipation and ease in passing stools and will reduce the bleeding during defecation.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
