What Causes Chronic Constipation Along With Abdominal Cramps And Bloating?
I have been suffering with constipation for about a week now. I ve tried several laxatives and have gotten minimal results. I am experiencing stomach cramps and bloating. I have been taking Garcinia Cambogia and forskolin. I have stopped taking them but still having problems getting a good bowel movement. What advice can you offer.
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of chronic constipation along with abdominal cramps and bloating which can occur due to many systemic reasons and it is extremely important to find out the exact cause. Need not to worry. I would advise you to drink plenty of water and avoid intake of outside food. You should consult a gastroenterologist and get examination done like complete blood count, stool examination, ultrasound scan of abdomen, and colonoscopy studies. You should start treatment after complete examination. Doctor may prescribe you traditional drugs like lactulose, milk of magnesia and cremaffin or bisacodyl tablets. Drink one spoon of honey in warm water daily. This will be really helpful.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Best Wishes, Dr. Harry Maheshwari
