Diet modification: Use a diet diary to determine if you can what foods might be constipating you. Secondly cut down on dairy products which are constipating you. Also increase the fiber you are eating in the form of fruits, vegetables and high fiber cereals. Make an appointment with a gastroenterologist for a possible colonoscopy to see if you have any type of obstruction.
