A member asked:
Total inability to defecate after recovering from a 3-day viral fever. tried milk of magnesia, domperidon, hot milk, glycerine, etc. didn't work. there seems to be no bowel movement. he hasn't defecated for four days now. what could be the reason?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It is very likely that he has not had enough oral intake. Unless he has developed abdominal distention, abdominal pain, and vomiting, watch and wait approach would be appropriate.
