I don't want to take medicine either, so maybe a natural way to have a poo?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Constipation remedy: Think about your colon! moving heavy load of old stool. Bowel regimen is indicated. Goal is 2 soft bowel movements daily. Water, juices (1.5 liters daily), fiber tablets, laxatives (milk of magnesium or miralax), stool softeners, probiotics, and walking are all non-prescription things you can use for your bowel regimen. If you have fever, vomiting, get evaluated. Colonoscopy at age 50.
