Hi.. Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC.. I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns.. As per your complain persisting constipation that is not resolved with stool softeners can be due to formation of Fecoliths or Corpolith that are stones of faeces or in general terms very hard stool that gets impacted in large intestine [colon] and there is resistence in stool evaculation even after taking stool softener or laxatives.. I would suggest you to consult a Gastroenterologist and get evaluated and a thorough clinical evaluation and investigations like Colonoscopy can help in diagnosis and treatment can be planned accordingly.. You can be advised to go for saline and soap enema so that the bowels will evacuate and it will be followed by intake of laxatives and stool softeners for maintaining proper bowels.. Once your bowels gets clear you can then take a good fibre diet, plenty of water and also do moderate workout and take walk after meals.. You can also drink warm water early morning for relief.. Hope this information helps.. Thanks and regards. Dr.Honey Nandwani Arora.
