You can do a far better job yourself!!! You know your body far better than anyone else!!! Do a Castor oil cleansing....See Sources for explicit details. Obtain a Fleet Bagenema set it is large volume and holds 1500ML. Relax and take in the whole 1500ML each time(Ask at Osco pharmacy - they will order you one - Cost is between five to ten dollars) and take tap water enemas (or distilled water)until what comes out is clear!!! Be sure to use warm water and to add a teaspoon or two of table salt to each enema to cut down on absorption. After a few 1500ML enemas it is possible to take 3000ML don't rush doing this though you will have to work up to this. After a good clean out like this it is good to eat yogurt to put a good flora in your bowel. I added yogurt to my regular diet to maintain a healthy flora. I do this procedure once a month with great benefit to my health. Feel free to write to my email with any questions. Relax - Do not be afraid!! Good Health to You!!!

I am not a doctor, and if you are experiencing problems, only a doctor can diagnose the cause and provide the particular treatment you need.\n\nEpsom salt laxatives (magnesium based) can "evacuate" the entire colon, but are generally not used to "clean" the colon. (The term cleaning, as used for GI surgery, etc)  Usually a Phospho-soda laxative combined with a bisacodyl enema are used for surgical cleaning.\n\nThere are several types of laxative preparations, each with different actions.  A pharmacist can recommend over-the-counter brands that might best address your needs, however, if you do not experience relief when using them by the package directions, it's best to consult a physician.

Go to the pharmacy and ask a Pharmacist.. Or you could wander up and down the medicine aisle until you find a product that says LAXATIVE or STOOL SOFTENER.. \n\n--dietary habits like a low intake of dietary fiber or inadequate amounts of fluids also could be your problem..\n\n--intervention is the increase of fluids (preferably water) and dietary fiber. The latter may be achieved by consuming more vegetables and fruit, whole meal bread and by adding linseeds to one's diet\n\n--Laxatives may be necessary in people in whom dietary intervention is not effective or inappropriate. Stimulant laxatives (e.g. senna) are generally avoided, as they may worsen crampy sensations commonly experienced in constipation

It  is not normal, you should try to have a movement daily, even in the case you have a "big" colon you must try to have a movement daily.\nFirst try in natural ways f.e eat one salad, three kiwi fruits, and a spoon of honey,  every night!\nIf this does not work see your doctor. \nThe more movements you have daily the better for you.

I would take a stool softener and drink lots of water, not a laxative. You need something which will work through your entire digestive system from the stomach down. A suppository and enema only work from the butt up (and they don't work themselves up through the entire intestinal track). It will take a couple of days before the stool softener works, but it is the least harsh method for your problem. Good luck !

I suggest reducing the amount of grains you eat to prevent this on a regular basis.  Grains contain fiber and while fiber can help with other issues, too much fiber can clog you up.  So, try reducing the amount of grains you eat in a day and see if the tightness subsides. \n\nYou can also try some an enema, but the effects will only last a short time.  I might also recommend the Celebrity diet (not so much to lose weight, but to cleanse the colon).  It's a 2 day juice fast that really cleans up the colon.  Since you are drinking juice for two solid days, the colon gets a break during that time and it also gives plenty of time to expell anything that's in there.  If you combine the  juice fast with an enema, that's about as good as it gets.\n\nIf you choose an enema, be sure to absolutely trust the person giving it to you.\n\nEating more fiber as someone else suggested, may make things worse... so I would be careful with eating too much fiber.   Fiber can't be digested, so it ends up staying in the colon only to be passed.  Too much of it left in the colon can feel like a brick or a large lump.  Worse, too much fiber left in the intestine will become food for the bacteria which may then produce a lot of gas (making the situation worse by making people bloated and gassy).  I've never had any difficulties when I don't eat enough fiber (that is with being bloated, gassy or feeling like a brick is in there).  I've had loads more problems when I eat too much fiber, though.

You're overdoing it. Be sure to do as much as you can without hurting yourself. Try to do a long set. You may have a hernia. Better get it checked out.

First, quit trying to make your body fit a schedule.  That's artificial and will cause more problems in the long run - it may even make your suffering worse.  What you want is a good easy clean bowel movement.  If you get to that point, timing shouldn't be a problem.\n\nSo - add more fiber to your diet.  However, you don't have to do the nasty metamucil/bran sludge thing - the following will give you fiber:\n\nWhole grain breads (easy way to add more fiber if you eat white bread or that "whole wheat" bread that is slightly browner than white); brown rice, oatmeal, whole wheat variations on pasta;  beans; dried fruit such as raisins or apples; veggies, especially the crunchy ones (don't need to be eaten crunchy, just to start crunchy);  ditto fruits, especially apples. However, probably the only fruit juice that will help is the OJ with extra pulp.  \n\nOrange peel is very good for fiber.  If you eat an orange, nibble on the peel when your finished.  If you eat toast, try marmalade.\n\nSo how does an oatmeal raisin cookie with some candied orange peel sound?\n\nOh, and drink lots of liquids, while you are at it.  The lower intestine can be too good at sucking out liquid.

Increase your intake of water and fiber.Fruit has lots of fiber.Also raw vegetables,Oatmeal,nuts,and whole grains.Don't do laxatives.That is only a temporary fix.You also could become addicted to them.Diet is a major factor contributing to Constipation..Medications can play a part as well.Talk to your Doctor if this goes on for a long period of time or if you notice abdominal pain.Exercise can also make you more regular.A lazy body can make for a lazy colon.

Try gentle exercise. Take a short walk each day. Gradually increase your walking time until you are walking for at least 20 minutes. \nMake sure you drink enough fluids. Most adults should try to drink between 8 and 10 glasses of water, noncaffeinated beverages, or fruit juice each day. Avoid alcoholic beverages and caffeine, which can increase dehydration. If you have heart failure or kidney failure, talk to your health professional about what amount of fluid is right for you. \nInclude fruits, vegetables, and fiber in your diet each day. Have a bran muffin or bran cereal for breakfast, and try eating a piece of fruit for a mid-afternoon snack. \nSchedule time each day for a bowel movement (after breakfast, for example). Establishing a daily routine may help. Take your time. Don't be in a hurry. \nSupport your feet with a small step stool [about 6 in. (15 cm)] when you sit on the toilet. This will help flex your hips and place your pelvis in a more normal "squatting" position for having a bowel movement. \nIf you are still constipated: \nAdd some processed or synthetic fiber—such as Citrucel, Metamucil, or Perdiem—to your diet each day. \nTry a stool softener, such as Colace, if your stools are very hard. \nTry a rectal glycerin suppository. Follow the directions on the label. Do not use more often than recommended on the label. Do not use a suppository while you are breast-feeding unless your health professional tells you to. \nIf constipation persists, add a saline laxative, such as Fleet Phospho-Soda or Milk of Magnesia. You should not take these types of laxatives if you are on a sodium-restricted diet or have kidney problems or high blood pressure. \nYou may occasionally need to try a stimulant laxative, such as Ex-Lax or Feen-a-Mint. Use these preparations sparingly. Overuse of stimulant laxatives decreases the tone and sensation in the large intestine, causing dependence on laxatives. Regular use may interfere with your body's ability to absorb vitamin D and calcium, which can weaken your bones. Do not use laxatives for longer than 2 weeks without consulting your doctor. Talk to your doctor before using an enema. Your doctor may need to check your symptoms or may suggest a different way to treat your constipation.

Straining when having a bowel movement will only lead to hemorrhoids as time goes bye.  You need more fiber in your diet.  Metamucil is a good source of fiber and it will stop the need to strain when having a bowel movement.

1) Eat less salt\n2) Use a diuretic\n3) This may sound confusing but drink more water , as this would avoid putting the body on starvation mode and prevent water bloating
