Back injury: You don't mention how old your back injury is. You probably have a contusion of your spine and such bone injuries take days to weeks to heal. An xray of your spine is advisable. Significant spinal and muscular pain can impact bowel function, and make BM's quite uncomfortable. Use a rectal glycerin suppository to make passage of stool easier, or you may need a dulcolax suppository or fleets enema
