If you use stool softeners do not go beyond recommended dosages, this can cause problems.
The best way to treat constipation is by drinking more fluids and eating more fiber. The problem can go away in as little as a day.
You've heard the saying an apple a day keeps the doctor away, there is truth to this saying. Prune juice is good but personally I can't stand it. Apple juice is really good
Stay away from anything that isn't natural... unless the problem persist and the doctor recommends it.

There are several ways... You could take laxitives (get the "gentle" kind), or increase the fiber in your diet. Fiber makes you regular. You could try drinking mineral oil (best when mixed with orange juice or something). Laxitives and oil are the fastest ways, they take about 4-6 hours. Fiber's more of a long-term solution.

Go to a local over-the-counter pharmacutical store.
They have a variety of products, milk of magnesia, lubricating rectal inserts, etc.
If you really don't feel like going to the store, you can apply vaseline or another lubricant in ur butt hole and try to let it out gently.
In the long term, eat fiber and take a crap before your intestines turn your poo into small, brown pebbles.

Watch your diet. Make sure you are eating enough fiber, Fruits and green leafy veggies. There are some natural means of stool softening also, check with a nutritionist or a chiropractor that handles nutrition concerns.
