A. Hai good evening !! Instead of using stool softner do tummy massage apply warm castor oil or coconut oil gently massage for 5-8 minutes in clockwise direction with finger tips. Include fibre rich foods fruit,vegetable ,cereals,pulses,grains - Papaya,pear,grapes,orange,banana,cucumber,bottle gourd,curd,ragi,jowar these will increase bowel movements avoid constipation.
