You need to see a doctor right away. This might be a sign of something serious and you can actually die if you become impacted (backed up waste in your intestines) and do nothing about it. Please see a doctor because he/she can prescribe medicines that can help you immediately. One word of extreme caution, if you are prescribed something called "Go Lightly", DO NOT I REPEAT DO NOT mix it with SUGAR to sweeten the taste! My mother almost did that when my sister had to use GL and the pharmacist started screaming that my sis would have a "Colonic Explosion" and it would KILL her. Please Please Please Get to a doctor immediately--they CAN and WILL help you ASAP!

Chronic constipation is caused by a lack of fibre in the diet. Look for ways to increase your fibre intake as this will help your colon create large, soft stools which are easy to push out.
Fruits, vegetables and whole grains have lots of fibre in them.
You can also get fibre supplements, if you take these make sure you also increase your water intake as they can soak up water in your intestines and make the problem worse.
Don't ignore the urge to go as this can make the problem worse, you may stop feeling the urge at all and your body will be stuck holding onto stuff it really needs to get rid of.

While constipation is not recognized as a degenerative disease or serious disorder, people who are constipated often feel bloated, uncomfortable and even sluggish. Constipation by itself is miserable enough, but sufferers often experience painful bowel movements that can become compounded by hemorrhoids that form due to straining.

There are a number of reasons why people get constipated. These include not eating enough dietary fiber, not drinking enough liquids (water), lack of exercise, ignoring the 'urge' to have a bowel movement and plain old stress. Other causes can include having a lazy colon that does not contract properly, causing waste materials to pass through the colon slowly, food allergies that can cause the colon to contract, or mechanical obstructions that inhibit the movement of waste materials. Many prescription drugs and certain neurological disorders can also slow down the movement of waste materials through the colon. Constipation can also be brought on by an abuse of laxatives that over time can damage the nerve cells in the colon and interfere with its ability to contract properly.

Fortunately, there are a number of things you can do to relieve chronic constipation naturally.
Constipation Prevention and Treatment
Consume a high fiber diet made up of lots of fruits, vegetables and whole grains. If that is not possible, incorporate a dietary fiber supplement such as psyllium hulls, Natures Sunshine's Nature's Three or their Irritable Bowel Fiber into your daily health routine. Dietary fiber holds water and help to keep the stool soft, while added bulk help to move the stool through the colon.


If other fiber supplements fail in your attempt to become regular, try taking Chitosan (a form of dietary fiber) along with vitamin C. The chitosan binds to fats from the foods we eat making the stool soft and smooth. The vitamin C helps to activate the chitosan in the stomach.


Drink plenty of water, especially if you are taking supplemental fiber.


Try eating a few dried prunes or drinking some prune juice. In addition to adding fiber, prunes have a mild laxative effect.


Avoid sugar and other processed foods.


Begin a regular exercise program to help promote normal bowel movements.


If you think allergies are the cause of your constipation, try an elimination diet to help you to identify what may be triggering your body and causing your colon to contract.


Meditate, do yoga, go for a walk. Do things that will allow you to reduce your stress levels and help your body to relax. This can help relax your colon.


Get a colonic to flush out any old fecal matter that may be trapped within the colon or try a colon cleanse.


Take a good probiotic such as acidopholis or bifidophilus to help promote a healthy environment within the colon.


Peppermint (3910-9) has a long history of helping relax the smooth muscles of the gastrointestinal tract.


Supplementation with magnesium and large doses of vitamin C, have a mild laxative effect on the body.


If all else fails, herbs such as casgara segrada, turkey rhubarb or herbal combinations such as Natures Sunshine's LBS II and LB-X can be used to evacuate the colon. While these should be used with caution, they are less aggressive than many commercial laxatives that are available at the supermarket.

put a vaccum cleaner in your assssshole you lil prick..

Are you on Meds that cause your Constipation? My Pain Meds Are SOO constipating that I have to take a stool softener every day and watch what I eat ,NO CHEESE!! easy on the meat & dairy. Drink LOTS & LOTS of water!!!! The trick is to keep the poo soft so it don't hurt or cause you to bleed. This is some thing I have been living with for 10+ years. By following the simple routine above I have gotten myself on a daily schedule , I go every day at the same time,like clock work and no more pain or tearing!

You should see a doctor. You may have IBS, irritable bowel syndrome. in most people this causes the runs, but for me it's constipation. I'd take a stool softener a couple of times so you can go without hurting then you need to change your diet immediately and eat more fruit and vegetables and some grains. I found that cutting down on eating read meat and fried heavy foods helped. As well as increasing my salad and raw veggie intake. I get that brocolli slaw in the bag at the store and make cole slaw out of it. I also am drinking more orange juice and v-8 and drinking A LOT more water. eating a granola cereal has a huge impact on my stool too! I GOOD one! Then, when I go, it just does it's thing and I don't have to push at it and it doesn't hurt. Don't keep it in, it will cause more problems that way. Probably why it hurts you and you bleed. Start your new diet right away and in a few days, things should start going back to normal in about two weeks, you'll start getting permanent relief. But you have to stick with the diet. My salads include romaine lettuce, spinach, shredded carrot, tomato, onion, cabbage and cucumber and some broccolli slaw. Be creative, but make sure you eat a lot of the stuff. I finally found some relief and I think you will too. Best is to see a doctor too in case there is something else going on. Changing your diet will only help you in most cases. Let me know how it "goes". Good Luck!

Cayenne is supposed to help and a web search for constipation + cayenne will tell you more.
