If you are constipated, try the following:
· Drink two to four extra glasses of water a day (unless fluid restricted).
· Try warm liquids, especially in the morning.
· Add fruits and vegetables to your diet.
· Eat prunes and/or bran cereal.
· If needed, use a very mild stool softener or laxative (such as Peri-colace or Milk of Magnesia). Do not use laxatives for more than two weeks without calling your doctor, as laxative overuse can aggravate your symptoms.
