Hello doctor, my constipation is a bit different from everyone else, about a week ago I was constipated (due to less vegetables and water) and I still have it, after I found out I had an apple. If I am constipated, I eat and drink more, my stools are quite good and I can pass it, but my previous constipation stools still can't be discharged, I feel I can't push out, so the doctor asked for advice. Please advise on how to treat prolonged constipation to help expel all stools. Thank you doctor!
