A member asked:
How many days of constipation can go by before you should see a doc?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: This may be a minor issue easily resolved, with change in diet containing more roughage and use of a stool softener. Hard to know what you mean by constipation, but if you are having abdominal pain or fever, see a doctor asap.
