Not passing a stool for a couple days or so is not necessarily a problem, unless you're the kind of person that passes 3 stools a day. In other words, your bowel habits determine how constipated you are. If you normally pass a stool only 3 times a week, you are still considered to have normal bowel habits.

Getting on to your question, it varies on how constipated you are. If you are constipated for only a few days and then your bowel habits return to normal, there is nothing to worry about. Only when constipation lasts for a long time or is combined with other symptoms do you need to contact your doctor.

Even still, being constipated is not good for your bowels and it is wise to drink a lot of fluids and eat fiber to prevent this symptom.
