If you have trouble with your bowel movements for more than two weeks, you should see your doctor. He or she may ask for these tests to find the cause of your constipation: 1  Blood tests to check on hormone levels. 2  Barium studies to look for any blockages in your colon.
The worst thing now is the feeling that after a bowel movement, I feel that I'm not finished. So one of the things I've been doing for years is inserting my finger to get what's left out. I know this sounds awful.. and totally gross.. but I can't seem to break this habit.hen there are times when I feel an urgency.. lower abdominal cramps and the feeling I need to have a bowel movement.. and there's nothing there (maybe some mucous and a small amount of stool, but not enough to cause such an urgency).
