A member asked:
Had a normal bm thursday morning, nothing friday or this morning ( sat)..took glycerin suppository and only went small amount. could i have impaction?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
More history needed: Need more history here to determine imp-cation risk. Do you have any anatomical bowel problem? How long has constipation been a problem? 3 days or years? Any blood in stool? Other medications you have tried? Enemas? Fleets? If short term, probably not impacted. If long term, chances of impaction increase. 8 fruits and veggies daily and 8 glasses water a must!
