Dear Justin
Thank you for visiting health24.com.
It sounds like if you are suffering from constipation. In order to eleviate the symptoms and to correct your bowl movements, you should take Laxette syrup, 10 - 20 ml, twice daily, as well as two Softlax tablets at night for a period of at least one week. The medication are available over the counter at your nearest Pharmacy. If the symptoms persists, you should consult a GP and have an abdominal x-ray done.
Kind regards
