    Fresh cherries (about 1/2kg) and 1/2 l of sour milk. Diarrhea is guaranteed. Or very strong senna tea.

    It is known that Egyptians used senna tea to relieve constipation. This tea is used for medium and chronic conditions of constipation.

    A quick one would be a water enema - warm, clean water in a standard enema bottle.

    An overnite remedy would be prunes or prune juice, or a stool softener, or a big dose of vit C should cause a movement.
