what should be done in a situation of constipation?

Answer 1

Try a fiber chewable like fiber-con or a taste free powder that you can mix in your foods if you are in need of quick relief (at least a day). Immediate relief, try a vegetable laxative. They are safe and effective in about 24 hours or less and generally do not cause cramping. Senokot is a good one. Read the label, it will say it is a vegetable laxative. Things like x-lax are not as good for your body to use, but will give immediate relief (like less than 6 hours).
Otherwise, eat more roughage...read labels. You should consume no less than 21g of soluble fiber per day. A fiber tablet or powder can help when used regularly, to supplement, if you are not eating enough or you require more than the 21g of fiber recommended. Some people simply need more because of slower metabolism.

Answer 2

Do not take laxatives. Eat what you can digest. Have green leafy vegetables, drink lot of water have lunch / Dinner at fixed time as far as possible an avoid junk food.. Avoid Smoking, Drinking and Drugs. Regular exercise is a must.
