Stool softener: It may help to take a stool softener, or better yet a fiber laxative like Metamucil. Drink enough water so that your urine is mostly colorless. You may also increase your intake of fiber foods: Consult this site for fiber foods. http://www.mayoclinic.org/healthy-lifestyle/nutrition-and-healthy-eating/in-depth/high-fiber-foods/art-20050948
