Constipation: For chronic constipation a diet containing fiber(either through food or Metamucil like supplement) and good daily intake of fluid is essential. Exercise helps. If you go days without any urge, take a gentle bowel stimulant like senokotS daily. If you have urge and can't move, work from below with rectal dulcolax suppositories or fleets enema as needed. New meds for irritable bowel C available
