A member asked:

Constipated for 2 weeks but have the urge to go and i get dizzy, lightheaded and vomiting while in the bathroom. have ibs?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Work from below: If you are constipated and have the urge to have a BM but can't, insert a glycerin rectal suppository. If no results, Insert a dulcolax rectal suppository or a fleets enema. In other words work from below rather than take strong laxatives which are more useful when you're constipated but have no urge to have a BM.
