Two issues: Constipation: Take a fiber laxative like Metamucil and drink enough water so that your urine is colorless. Pin worm: Consult the site given below, you may need to see your doctor for a prescription: http://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/pinworm/basics/definition/con-20027072 Wish you good health!
