Stool softeners are just a band-aid. They don't address the root cause of your constipation. In addition to diet (eat more fiber) and hydration (drink more water) a commonly overlooked contributor to constipation challenges can be related to your pelvic floor and hip muscles, which are all connected.

    The grade of someone’s prolapse can’t be reversed without a surgical interventions. However, the severity of someone’s pelvic floor symptoms from a prolapse can be significantly improved, if not fully resolved, with pelvic floor physical therapy AND learning how to manage/resolve constipation is an important strategy for improving any type of prolapse symptom(s).

    For over a year I have been having incomplete bowel movements. Seen several doctors with no results. I'm 70 years old and don't know what else to do. I need help. Can;t live like this.

    I’m so sorry you’ve been going through that. That sounds really challenging. It’s important to rule out internal issues within the intestines and GI system, and pelvic floor muscles when incomplete emptying is occurring. Has your physician referred you to a pelvic floor physical therapist? I often find with my patients who have incomplete bowel movements that we need to work on resolving pelvic floor muscle tightness for them to be able to fully empty.
