Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I am a 26-year-old male, six feet one inch tall, and weigh around 265 pounds. I have experienced persistent bloating and abdominal pain for the past two weeks, along with changes in my stool pattern. Despite taking senna laxatives, Gas-X, and Metamucil to address these issues, constipation and bloating persist. Please help.

Thank you.
