Chronic Constipation And Terrible Pain.

A MySpondylitisTeam Member asked a question 💭

Does anyone else have chronic constipation and terrible soreness and pain in your intestines? I can barely walk sometimes. It hurts to just sit up or lay down.... I hope someone can let me know if this goes with spondylitis.....

Also. I started using NativePath (natural feed cow grass) non flavor in my coffee. I add 1 scoop twice a day. There is no taste at all. It helps with my stomach issues, joints, helps with bone loss. Etc. I really recommend that. And my spine doctor is thrilled I using it. Because it helped so much.

I know that you posted this concern five months ago but I have been experiencing the same symptoms lately. I started taking organic psyllium husks at bedtime. Also, warm water with a half of lemon in the morning might help.

I have IBS associated with my spondylitis. Intestinal inflammation. It's very painful. I take Lialda given by my gastroenterologist. Have you seen a specialist for your pain? Untreated my pain would only get worse but with the right dose, it is managed well.

When I have irritable bowel pain so bad that It’s painful to walk, I take Bentel or dicyclomine. It’s a smoothe muscle relaxant which takes the pain away. You will need a prescription from a Doctor for it. It’s a life saver. You have to take it as soon as you get even a hint of crampy pain, but it works quickly.
