Laxative misuse
Over last 2 years became dependent on laxatives.
Having fissure for last 5 years.
To avoid the surgery started taking bulking and softening laxative.
Want to get rid of laxative abuse as this will harm me in long term but fissure pain increases as soon as I do that.
Plz help how to get rid of this habit,my fiber intake,water intake and junk inhibition is on point so plz don't advise that.
Can suddenly stopping laxative will make me more constipated?Plz give some practical suggestions.
