I'm on holiday and this is my second week away from home. I often find it difficult to poo when I'm not in my own home.

This past week I've pooed probably not even half as much as I normally would. The worst it got was not going to the toilet for 4 days. I feel like I've pulled stomach muscles and I have some back pain (both of which could be from the hiking I did yesterday and the day before), is it likely to be from constipation?

I read horror stories on google about people dying from constipation and it made me really nervous. Please can someone reassure me that it's probably just from change of diet and/or environment and if the constipation does become life threatening then the stomach pains will be much worse and I will be throwing up, in which case I would go to a doctor.

Any help would be great! I'm worrying the my bowels are blocked, even though I have managed to poo a small amount whilst being away.
