How do you know you have a blockage?

For the last two or three days I have had little or no bowel movements. I have taken Benefiber as my doctor suggested but nothing. I barely have gas (that is unusual). I am taking monistat for yeast infection, but I dont think that has anything to do with no having a bowel movement. I am drinking more water than usual but I still have symptons of dehydration. I am peeing regularly. I am concerned but not sure I should be. Should I give it a couple more days or call my doctor today? I have some ankle swelling and that concerns me as well. I may be overreacting or am I under-reacting? I feel kinda bloated but not sick or anything. I usually have a small bowel movement everyday so I guess this is quite unusual. I don't eat a lot of meat but lately I haev been able to eat more. What do you all think?
