I am sorry Benny is not feeling well. If you really think he is constipated you can try to add caned pumpkin into his food to help increase the fiber. However it might actually be he is having diarrhea. I think taking him to a vet would be the best idea for a full physical exam,. that way the cause of the crying can be detected and addressed.
