Specializes in Family Medicine

Constipation: Are you saying that your constipation and gas are being caused by zinc? I recommend a good dose of magnesium and getting some exercise.

I took a suppository. I got an average amount out as Ive been constipated. But it feels like I still have more to come out. When I push nothing comes out. Just gas. Do I take more laxatives or do I just try eating more fibre and drinking more water?
