Instead of direct stimulation of your anus with your finger, try jostling one buttock while defecating. The vibrations transmitted to the rectum reduce friction with dry stool and stimulate expulsion. Also try to go more than once per day. This technique has help me so well after 20 years of my own constipaption that I'm compelled to share it.
I pray god to relieve u soon from constipation
You can consider some lower GI tests to ensure there isn't an anatomical or physiological problem leading to the symptoms.
A lower endoscopy can evaluate for polyps or masses. More specialized testing can include anorectal manometry, motility studies, endorectal ultrasound, or defecography. Each of these tests can evaluate for more uncommon causes of constipation - such as motility disorders or problems with the anal sphincter.
A referral to a gastroenterologist can be considered to discuss these options. If everything is negative, a routine bowel regimen can be recommended.
Followup with your personal physician is essential.
