Constipation, excessive flatulence and bloating?

3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers

No known disease?: Each person with constipation needs to be sure there is no other disorder causing it. If constipation is just due to slow movement of the food and poop through the gut, then the things to try are vegetables, water, prune juice, prunes, fiber plus water, Miralax (polyethylene glycol), Senokot or other senna, milk of magnesia, other laxatives... A doctor can evaluate and prescribe helpful meds too.

Using this site: You get the most from this site when you describe a health issue with features such as symptoms, duration, past attempts to treat, etc and then ask a clear question. Just posting some symptoms with no clear question does not allow a focused answer in the limited space allowed. You are welcome to start over. Posts are not linked so each must be complete.
