Swallow at least 20 swallows of air don't burp or else you have to start all over again after 3 minutes swallow more air and that's all there is to it when it works let me know I was worried reading problems people were having with constipation a hole bottle of prune just worked to good then I thought of swallowing air as that is what I needed to do to push the hernia back in and it worked so I try it for the hell of it and went to the bath room leaving a dump simple

Make a cup of strong coffee, and stir in 5 teaspoons of virgin olive oil. Does not taste as bad as you think!!! You will have a gentle result in 12-36 hours. Be patient. One oily coffee now keeps me regular for three days. This has succeeded when all manner of laxatives have failed in the past. TRY IT!!!!

Warm prune juice is the answer. When I was backed up in Germany once I couldn't find prune juice in the supermarkets. But in the UK it is widely available. Pour a glass of prune juice and put it in the microwave for 20 seconds. Test the temperature with your finger. If necessary, put the glass back in for 10 seconds. Note that the juice should not be hot, and just lukewarm won't work either. Once you think you've hit the right temperature, drink it down in one go. This has an absolutely disgusting taste, but about an hour later you will start to feel like you're ready for the toilet. The effect of just one glass of prune juice can last for several hours, so be prepared to visit the toilet more than once. Especially useful to remember if you decide to go shopping.

In mine, there is family history of bowel cancer and due to the problems in the NHS now, my screening hasn’t been happening as it should. I’ve no cause to worry ( at the moment anyway) but I do think that honest conversation about “ embarrassing” topics like this needs to happen. I wish you were my doctor.

I take a magnesium citrate pill every night. 250mg. If I don't drink enough water and/or I sit too much, I get constipated. I noticed that every time I fly to Europe, or drive half a day... I eat prunes from Costco when I remember, but mostly walking, drinking enough water and the 1 pill of magnesium citrate at bedtime works the best for me

I was soooooooo happy to have come across your video. I have had IBS-C since i was 5. I cannot tell you how many times i went to the ER with hideous pain. I have had all the tests and they always come back normal and it is just IBS-C. I suffered to the extreme. Then 3 yrs ago i thought to myself that if you are impacted the doc will remove it manually. Ppl have anal sex. So i tried to dig it out with a glove on and it worked really well and have been doing it ever since. Seems all it is was it just wouldn't come out so all that was needed was to get a little out and the rest would follow. It has been Heaven sent. I call it THE CURE. I am a 76 yr old female.

Vegetarian for 51 years, eating a lot of whole grains, fruit, vegetables. But now and then I get constipated. I learned when I was 21 that part of it is some kind of emotional thing. I remember writing a paper for college. Once I finished writing the paper (not typing it as in the old days you had to do but finishing with the creative part), I would need to run to the bathroom. Whenever my mother or sister would call me, I would have to run to the bathroom. Finishing things can do it. When I need to take something, I like AloeLax with fennel. That always helps.

If you're from SE Asia like me with some lactose intolerance then cold milk works. Anal douche is very effective for me but I've only needed to use it several times. You can buy an attachment to screw onto the shower hose, be careful not to turn on the water too strongly and test the temperature first. Do not let too much water in each time and it works after a few seconds. Have a bowl ready to avoid messing up the shower floor. As for medication lactulose works gently as stool softener. Some people with chronic constipation have lost the contractility of the bowel muscles so senna might not be so effective.😮

An elderly neighbor was unfortunate to have acquired a very uncouth caregiver.

The caretaker refused...and she did this kind of behavior often. I purchased a small bottle of . Glycerine, and a plastic dropper, and it was just enough to soften the hardened stool that i is sometimes the reason for temporary stops.,Caretaker was eventually let go!

My home remedy: brown lentils and brown rice. I cook them together (50/50 mix) in my rice cooker (following the directions for brown rice). Gets things moving, but it's solid and comfortable.

I've also used salt as a laxative. You have to eat a LOT, like a couple of teaspoons at once dissolved in plenty of water. And then wait like 30 minutes or so. It basically gives you diarrhea which moistens/lubricates the stuck poop. Use at your own risk if you have high blood pressure or other conditions that would make it dangerous to eat so much salt. I have the opposite problem (my blood sodium tends to run too low, and my body gets rid of sodium MUCH too fast), so I have to eat a lot of salt to avoid cramps, which is how I inadvertently discovered this trick. Might be a lifesaver since pretty much everyone has salt at home but you might not have another type of laxative on hand, or you might have already run through the ones you do have.

There are health practitioners that do a procedure called high colonic. It is an effective enema, cleaning out the entire colon. It is done with tubing and tanks so that there is no odor, and they cover you for privacy. A gentle abdominal massage is done , which helps move things along. I get one done every few years, and feel really great afterwards. I always wondered why they didn’t do them in hospitals when patients have constipation post surgery.

Hospitals can't any make money if you're healthy at home. That's the entire problem with American health care. They don't WANT you to be healthy!! Do you know how much profit they made during the entire Mexican Beer sickness???

@@anitagurns9480 …..it doesn’t have to be a doctor, it’s more like a license a massage therapist would get. You can try googling “high colonic” and see what you get, or ask a naturopathic doctor or center for a reference.

@@anitagurns9480 In big cities, they come a dime a dozen. I've tried it once, and I didn't like it all all, in fact, I think they can often do more damage than they claim to "fix." There are many more ways of cleaning your colon that this, believe me. Just look for natural remedies on the internet.

The enema works as a last resort for me all the time. Usually the first time, sometimes the 2nd. I will try taking a magnesium supplement as a preventative measure.

Do you know if you can use an ear wax bulb syringe as an enema?

​@@heisannhoppsann90you can by a hand enema syringe. Faultless makes a good one. I use it every time after a bm. It leaves a little water behind in the rectum to keep the next bm softer. It's soothing for hem too. You can add a tiny bit of salt to the water if there is bleeding.

Hopefully, people use a "finger cot" to protect their finger before checking back there. (first aid supply dept of drug store). And first put organic coconut oil on outside of the finger cot.
