It's called constipation. Go get some over-the-counter medicine and follow the instructions, including the part that talks about when to see a doctor if symptoms are not decreasing within a specific time period.

Depending on the cause, there are moderate to severe risk factors of not being able to pass waste. Technically speaking, if a person is totally incapable of having a bowel movement, other complications will begin to occur and death will follow. That's almost surely not the case for you, but our bodies do pass waste for a reason.
