Hello,
If these are your symptoms since childhood and there are no recent changes in your bowels, then nothing big to worry, but because it is causing you discomfort , please consult your Gastroenterologist and get your scans and colonoscopy done to rule out if there is any problem and you can be treated for the same plus your constipation. Hope i could help you.
Thank you.
