Symptoms of constipation may also include abdominal discomfort, bloating, and a feeling of incomplete evacuation. Treatment for constipation often involves dietary and lifestyle changes such as increasing fiber intake, drinking plenty of fluids, regular exercise, and sometimes over-the-counter laxatives or stool softeners. In some cases, medical evaluation may be necessary to identify and address underlying causes of constipation.
