Many options.: It is suggested to drink plenty of water. At least 8 glasses of water a day. Make sure to eat plenty of fiber including fruits and vegetables they even make fiber tablets which you can take found in pharmacy. They also make over the counter medications for constipation such as MiraLAX (polyethylene glycol) which should be used as directed. See a physician for appropriate treatment.
