I’ve been constipated and I’m extremely worried

Posted , 3 users are following.

i recently got my wisdom teeth out and i was taking tylenol 3 for the pain. unfortunately, that plugged me up and its been four days since i have properly pooped. i know its there, and i know it wants to come out but when i get on the toilet, it feels like it wants to come out. but it never does and when it tries to come out, its extremely painful. so at this point i don't know what to do and i'm becoming extremely concerned. And i know one thing for sure i am not turning to pushing as an option. So please if anyone has any suggestions or tips please let me know. it would help alot.

    This sounds like a fairly simple case of constipation - so, my usual answer, take an enema or dulcolax suppository
