A doctor has provided 1 answer
Go to doctor: Go to your doctor, urgent care or hospital if this is a big change for you. If you often go 5 days between bm's then it's not as urgent. However, if you normal poop daily, you need to see a doctor for this. If uncertain, call your doctor and ask to be seen.
