Q: Big Problem

After being constipated for a week (taking very small bms like twice a week) I find that when I eat, I feel like I am actually getting backed up.. I can't burp naturally, like I have to turn every which way to burp to relieve myself of bloatiness. It kind of scares me... Anyone else have this problem?

Take a laxitive,if the laxitive doesnt make you have a large bm in the next 48 hours seek medical attention, dont worry at all, they can just do a ennema (how ever u spell it)
