Treat constipation: Did your doctor talk to you about trying to alleviate the constipation? Miralax (polyethylene glycol) is an OTC powder that mixes with water and can help with constipation (used to be prescription). In addition you can take a stool softener such as colace. If you have not had a BM for days and have a good bit of bloating then adding Sennakot for a few days will also help.

Be sure: But fluids, prunes, and stool softeners are a start. But need rectal exam and possibly colonoscopy since at this age you should not be having this.
