I agree with Slim, once my female didn't poo for 3 weeks. And it did on Sunday. She was just fine, just took awhile.
I own
0.1 normal Padme
1.0 normal (first snake) Cave Johnson
0.1 het. pied Chell
1.0 het. pied Wheatley
1.0 Leopard gecko Muffin (given to me by my little sister, she named it)
As you can see, I name my snakes after Portal and Star Wars characters.
Soon (hopefully)
1.0 pinstripe
1.0 cornsnake (or 0.1)
1.0 BCI boa

Do you mean a massage? 
I have tried this (unintentionally) and gotten pooped on by my corn before... a few times. Massages definitely help! Good advice ZacharyPoller.

From what I see in those pics, you don't have a medical condition on your hands. Give your snake some time, I'm sure everything will come out alright...

Leave him alone. Looks like he might be going into shed (pink belly is a sign). The bloated look is called 'sausage butt'. It's relatively common.
Most snakes will hold in poop until a shed. So I will bet you'll have a nice big poop the next time you find a shed.
Snakes don't really poo often like other pets. They can go weeks to months without pooping and be perfectly fine and healthy.
Don't forget to keep your humidity up.

Yeah, I see pink and sausage butt. You will have poo soon enough.
If nothing ever changed, there would be no butterflies.
