Constipation.: Would recommend a good healthy life style to minimize constipation. Increase fibers in diet with fruits and vegetables and whole grains. Increase water intake, decrease caffeine, alcohol. Increase exercise and sleep well. If it still persists, will need to see a physician to look for other pathologic causes.
