As per your query you are having symptoms of constipation which could be due to many reasons such as due to decreased gastric motility, gastroesophageal reflux disease and inadequate intake of fluids and fiber-rich diet.
Need not to worry. You should avoid intake of sharp, spicy and hot food substances. I would suggest you consult a gastroenterologist for proper examination. Doctor may order a colonoscopy, barium studies and blood test for hormonal changes. Doctor may prescribe fiber supplement, osmotic laxatives, and stool softeners. You should start drinking a lot of water. Take a diet rich in fiber supplements and do light exercises and avoid fatty and heavy meals.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
