I have gone through your history and value your concern. It seems to be acute constipation but certain things are missing in your history. I would like to know about your age, your medications, any past surgical history, medical diseases like hypertension, diabetes, thyroid disease. I would also like to know if your constipation is associated with blood in stools or pain abdomen. This is important so that i can guide you in a proper way.

Hope I have answered your query.
