A member asked:

I have bowel movements everyday but it's hard and dry regardless of consuming plenty of fluid and vegetables.(it burns) any solution?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Constipation: Lots of fluids/water= 48-64 ops/d vegetables and whole grains are good and less carbs/starches, less milk products in diet. Mirilax OTC at night to soften can be taken until better habit occurs.
