There are many options for treating constipation & gas pain. But most importantly, you need a comprehensive workup to identify the underlying reason. Please consider booking a primary care visit with your doctor to begin the workup.

With such a prolonged problem of constipation, not relieved by good fluid& fiber intake,regular exercise and taking daily bowel stimulant like SenokotS according to instructions, my recommendation is to directly get an evaluation by a gastroenterologist to determine the type/cause, get appropriate testing,treatment & follow-up. This does eliminate the primary care MD but expedites the investigatio
