Incomplete Bowel Movements

Greetings to all,

I am currently 25 years old.
One and a half month now I am experiencing some incidents of incomplete bowel movements. It all started as a constipation episode because of the lack of hydration and proper eating but even though I started eating properly , a part from the discomfort seems to persist. I used lactulose syrup to alleviate some of the discomfort, but after a couple of days it is still there.  
I go everyday to the bathroom but because I can't complete my bowel movement, I usually need to have a second or even a third visit after approximately 1-2 hours.
I try not to struggle much, because I am afraid of getting hemorrhoids.
Can you give me some advice on treating this?

Try Mira-Lax and use Benefiber -- Benefiber you should use everyday to make sure your getting enough fiber, which will help you go. Mira-lax will make it easier for you to go- stop using when your problem is over.
