Stomach/bowel issues. been going on for a while. never really been able to use the bathroom as much as i probably should. i experience constipation. sometimes it worsens with eating. bloating. sometimes get relief from bowel movement?

Constipation: Make sure you drink adequate fluids daily and eat enough soluble fiber or take a fiber supplement like Metamucil daily. Insoluble fiber may cause too much gas. If you have very little urge for a bowel movement, try taking a gentle bowel stimulant like SenokotS daily according to instructions. Regular exercise helps. A gastroenterologist can advise you further as needed.
