There are many things you can do. Here are a few suggestions:
-Increase fiber intake
-Stop taking metal ion supplements (such as Calcium, iron, and aluminum) which may be included in a daily multivitamin
-Try glycerin suppositories (beware, these will work within 15 minutes)
-Exercise
-Call your doctor if none of the above works
Hope this helps.
