For as long as I can remember I've had a problem of taking about a minimum of 45 min on the toilet trying to make a bowel movement. When I do go there is little amounts in the bowl and sometime sI don't even go. This happens everyday at least once and for some reason on the weekends I don't even go! It is also pretty difficult to go. It involves a nice amount of pushing. Lately I've had some abdominal pain and yesterday felt like a muscle cramp in there but only on one side of the abdomen. If I get off too early say about 30 minutes I have pain all day and feel like there is still some left. Lately this has been causing a lot of problems and I just need help. Thanks for any answers in advance.
