Pain from constipation
My girlfriend has been very constipated for the past week and a half. We tried stool softener and laxatives and still no luck. Is there any harm in trying the suppositorys as well? She has already taken the oral duloclax. It says 1-3 per dose and she took 2. Please let me know so that she can get some relief. It’s cause a lot of pain in both her stomach and her back.
