hello, i need some kind of opinions. I apologize for being graphic but i can't explain it any other way. I have a hard time going to the bathroom to poop. I don't poop at all in about 3 days but when i do, the actual poop is big enough that it tears the anus as it comes out. (sorry, i know this sounds nasty) i know i tear because it hurts so bad and blood comes out. What can i do to relieve this. is there something i can eat to make me go more often or something i can take (medicine, pills, anything)? i appreciate your help. thanks!

Fibre, fibre, fibre! Try atleast 7 servings of fruits n vegetables (one serving is the size of the palm of your hand). Atleast 3 litres of water, and exercise that causes your whole body to move e.g. running, and swimming, and jumping compared to just sitting and lifting weights!
Also stay away from the crap that clogs your body, like high sugar/ fat/ refined/ manufactured foods.
Hope it helps!

I eat lots of hot peppers, and I never have a problem, but until you stop the tearing and bleeding, that's not a good recommendation for you! Whatever you do, DON'T take the advice of people who "prescribe" a laxative without a license to know what they're talking about. Prunes and prune juice, All-Bran, figs, and possibly oily foods that lubricate may be good choices, but even there, it's possible (not likely, but possible) to do damage. Avoid white bread and especially cheese, which are binding. And if only to ease your mind about the possibility of infection, it might be wise to see a doctor in any case.

you're having ciatic(sp) nerve issues. they'll subside while your infant is born. interior the intervening time get a complicated adjustable well being midsection mattress. positioned you television by making use of it and each little thing you will be able to desire to be delicate. Lay flat on your back till your infant is born. then you definately would be ok. Get some friends that may additionally assist you and save you delicate. upward push up purely while necessary. do not permit any well being practitioner convince you which you quite want a spinal operation. you will be able to even have gas.

Go to the health food store and get Super Colon Cleanse (good fiber source) and drink plenty of water. You can also drink a small glass of prune juice everyday. I eat raisin bran or oatmeal for breakfast at least five days a week. Eat plenty of fruits and vegetables and cut down on fried foods, white breads and sugar. Good luck to you!

Stool softener. Or just drink a glass of warm water with some epsom salt.
You need to go every single day. If you don't, you increase your risk of toxicity... which can really hurt you (more than the tearing).

You need to start eating more fiber!!! There is this new yogurt that says it will make you more regular in 2 weeks... I think it is called Dannon activa. Sounds like you need to change your diet. You also need to drink water like crazy to flush your system and make an appointment with your dr!

Drink LOTS more water first of all. Then add more fruits and veggies to your diet. If it still continues, do to your doc b/c it could be a sign of something more. Good Luck!

you should probably go to the doctor because in a place like that if you were to get an infection that goes through your bloodstream you could die.
not trying to scare you, but you should seriously get some help
