I know you said no laxatives but try some bulk fiber laxatives. It makes you more regular.



Ok basically, you picked up some nasty bug from that place. What I would suggest you do, is eat stuff with a lot of fiber. (whole wheat toast, dark veggies, fruits, etc.) Those will help bind some of the crap up. As for being constipated, it's more pain from your colon. Keep on the clear fluids and try to have some bowel movements as you can.

I work at a colorectal clinic/surgery center.



Most cases of constipation respond to conservative treatment such as dietary and lifestyle changes or mild laxatives.Dietary changes include getting enough of the recommended daily amount of fiber (20 to 35 grams), drinking 64 ounces of water or juice a day, and limiting foods that have little or no fiber, such as ice cream, cheese, meat and processed foods.Lifestyle changes consist of exercising, reserving enough time to have a bowel movement and having a bowel movement when needed.
