Why am I constantly constipated?

I seem to be constipated closely lately and the only point that seems to relieve it is to insert one finger into my anus and that seem to give the gas held inside too a release. Is this everyday? Does anyone know what I can do for this?Why am I constantly constipated?
Ex-Lax to temporarily help the constipation, and basically make sure you drink plenty of sea and eat foods rich within fiber like vegetables. After a week or so of impartial eating you should not quality constipated and regularly pass a stool (it vary from person to personality depending on metabolism). If your stool is hard to overrun or you have blood when you wipe after you need to increase your marine and fiber intake.
If its that bad possibly you should see a Dr. But not enough roughage and dehydration cause constipation. Irritable bowel sydrome can also grounds it, along with bowel infections. But that does come across kind of extreme; if it be me I'd get it checked out, but its probably nil.
This is such a common problem surrounded by the US and the causes are so diverse.
Constipation means different things to different citizens. Some people experience strain when they try to stir to the bathroom, while others have what they occupancy ‘bloating’. Some patients complain that their bowel movements are pebble-like, marble-like, or flat and ribbon-shaped, which doctors call scybalus. In the medical community, the largely accepted definition of constipation is: smaller number than three bowel movements a week. Another way the problem is defined is straining, complex stool, or incomplete evacuation more than 25% of the time.
See if this information helps, a bit. I hope so!
