Its 24 hours and I cant still poop because I feel like I have strained for too long and Im scared Please what can I do as I feel weak already 

Thank you
Answer: Hello there and thanks for using Wellvis

Sorry about your symptoms 

May I ask if youve been vomiting since this started Are you feeling bloated Is your abdomen getting bigger Are you able to pass wind fart

If you are vomiting or not passing wind those are signs that you should urgently report to the nearest hospital You may be having an intestinal obstruction

However since youve taken laxatives with no improvement Please kindly visit your nearest hospital for thorough physical examination and the appropriate management

Hope this helps and get better soon
