    Make the appointment ASAP.  You are very young and have a history ofconstipation, it could be a partial blockage from compacted stools.   After that you should think about changing yur diet to help you become more regular.  Ask your doctor about a diet.

     

    See your. Doctor!

    Dear Chelsy,

    You did the right thing when you made the appointment. Don't let them brush you off. Make sure you get a definite answer. Probably you will need a colonoscopy, when they go up and look around.

    I wish you good luck,

    Laz
