A member asked:
Have ibs, feel like i can't make my rectum contract enough and never feel empty , i go to toilet every 3 or 4 days though i increased my fibres intake?

Those are the: symptoms of irritable bowel. A stool softener like colace (docusate sodium) might help, but your symptoms will probably persist. f you are regular every 3-4 days, would stick with that
