Meds r causing severe constipation (hurts to walk) used suppository last night but still so much pressure. can i take metamucil capsules this morning?

Constipation: What you are describing sounds like you may also have developed an external thrombosed hemorrhoid or fissure. I would set up an appt to see a general surgeon or colorectal surgeon and then a GI doctor to help manage your constipation and symptoms , especially if this is a chronic issue.
