Update: Extremely worried I may have an impaction

Hello this is an update from my earlier post. I had a a decent amount of warm prune juice with butter this morning and have only had liquids this far. I had to use the restroom a lot with liquid stool because I think I drank a little too much prune juice. I'm in the restroom right now and I'm still struggling with getting out the hard stool I know is in there. What should I do now? Will the prune juice effects kick in at a later date?

Extremely worried I may have an impaction

Hello everyone, I have been dealing with bowel issues my whole life and just recently it feels worse than it's ever been. I have dealt with ibs for years now and up till a few weeks ago I was going regular. Just a couple weeks ago, I would get a good amount of stool out but there'd always be a feeling that there was more stuck in there. I kept on with my days as I could still pass gas/stool even with this. Up till a few days ago my stool was solid like usual but later that evening it had gotten narrow. Now I got diagnosed with ibs a few years back so I know how inconsistent it is but as the days have passed I've gotten more abdominal pain near the groin and less full stool. I passed flat stool this morning and afternoon but as I am typing this now I have only gotten liquid stool and extremely small soft bits out all while feeling like I have a lot more inside. I'm a 23 yr old man and I have been consistently taking miralax and metamucil every day. What should I do? Edit: I forgot to mention that I know I got a hemorrhoid recently and that as of right now I haven't made a bowel movement but have passed lots of gas if that means anything.
