Bunged up, constipated! 1st time

[parker1313]

I'm all bunged up& need a big bowel movement. This is new to me.
What can I do?
What will clear me out quickly?

Probably best to ask a pharmacist or a gp/nurse - some of the laxatives can be dangerous if you can't pass anything at all.

Water, weak coffee and something with a bit of fibre. Go for a walk - exercise always help shift things.

Water, dried apricots, prunes, sunflower seeds etc.....

You could try a couple of sachets of fybergel to soften the stool, they can help ease that dull tummy ache you can get with constipation.

Avoid heavy foods foods today.
