Cart vs. horse?: It's difficult to determine if the constipation is causing the pain or if some other process is causing both the pain and constipation. If you've tried some common OTC interventions such as a a fiber supplement or stool softener without any relief, then it's time to see a doctor for a thorough medical evaluation and treatment of the underlying cause of your distress. Best wishes.
