I'm Constipated

2017-08-26 15:29:05
I've been unable to poop for a week. This always happens and it won't come out unless I take laxatives. I get the urge but nothing would come out. I looked up every possible solutions (eating more fiber, drinking more water, etc.) but nothing seemed to work. I'm wondering if there's any medicine that I should take that won't harm my body? thank you
