A doctor has provided 1 answer
Passing hard stools: You can experience pelvic and lower abdominal pain prior to passing hard stools. Constipation can cause pain. You can soften stools if you increase your water intake and eat high fiber foods such as whole grains, fruit and vegetables. If pain also occurs other than when passing stools followup with your doctor
