Not sure but...: Hi wassup! i'm not sure what you mean when you say you literally feel inflammation but constipation can cause tremendous discomfort. You might try taking 3000 mg of buffered vit c every hour until you have a bowel movement- sooner or later i guarantee this will work and the high doses of vit c may help your cold too! if the feeling of inflammation persists please see a doctor to evaluate!
