I have not gone to the bathroom for about 4 days. I have been on a protein vegetable diet. How do I cure myself of constipation? I am taking senna tea right now. I hope it will help.

Do you excercise?
Regular jogging helps keep the bowels moving.

one time i drank a spoon of cayenne pepper mixed with water, it definitely got rid of the constipation but with the side effect of explosive diarrhea for hours but it burns and may have given me a temporary hemorrhoid, that was years ago i wouldnt do it again but it got rid of the constipation

I agree with prunes. Also, it might not hurt to try a big ol’ cup of coffee.

Coffee is my go-to laxative.

For sure coffee. Apples. Avoid dairy. Metamucil. If you need to take a med for it I recommend dulcolax

I take Miralax every day. Despite its name, it’s not a laxative. It’s a stool softener. It’s safe to use every day. Just mix with water or other beverage. It has no flavor. I take mine with water.

In the first nursing home I worked as an aide, i learned 1\2 cup prune juice to 1\2 cup apple juice mixed well and warmed up would get things moving.
