How can constipation be healed without fiber?

Answer by  bvaniea (312)

Increasing the amount of water you drink during the day can help re-hydrate the intestines. Massage on the abdomen can help move fecal matter in the intestines, acupuncture can help encourage the body to function properly.

Stool softener works, also try drinking a small glass of prune juice. I'm going to warn you though, it tastes like yak urine. Not that I know what that tastes like. But I imagine that's how it would taste. Choke it down and you'll be pooping in no time!

Constipation can not truly be healed without fiber. You can use a stool softener and drink plenty of water to help soften things up. If it continues you need to contact your doctor.

Increasing the amount of fruits, vegetables, and grains that contain fiber naturally can help to relieve constipation. Beans are helpful too. This will take a day or two to become effective, usually.

Constipation can be treated with over the counter laxative. The only way you will not be able to treat constipation with a laxative, is if their is some kind of blockage. Although laxatives can help relieve constipation, if they do not work after a certain about of days you should stop using them and see a doctor.
