Hello, Constipation is very common but it can cause a lot of discomfort. Generally it can be related to the diet we use or if we use medications that affect the bowel or sometimes there is no specific cause identified. To help with it you can take some Movicol 1-2 sachets daily for a few days and if you would like a faster effect you can take bisacodyl 1-2 tablets orally, this should not be repeated often because it makes the bowel lazy and can cause dependence to it. Meanwhile please make sure you do have a healthy diet with fruit and vegetables, take fiber supplements, be active and exercise regularly, avoid fast food and fried food. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Regards, Dr. Antoneta Zotaj, General & Family Physician
