Slow bowel movement

Question

Slow bowel movement

Asked for Male, 31 Years

I am taking cremaffin 10ml since last 4 months for fissure problem which is almost healed along with movicol 25ml in the morning and night. But I notice that my bowel movement has been decreased and not enough pressure is attained when I go to toilet which caused not complete excretion. Is it due to prolonged laxative use or any other factor?
