For as long as i can remember ive been constipated (since i was a kid). however, over the last week my feces are normal. should i be worried?

No: You may have accidentally changed your diet/stooling habits to a point where it works better. I never like to treat normal. Realize that you should try to stool every day to keep this better pattern going.
