My corn recently was moved into a new aquarium a month ago and pooped right before I moved him. I have not found any poop since and it is beginning to worry me. I have searched a few times and have found nothing and she has a bulge towards her vent but even if I massage it or soak her in warm water and try to gently massage the poop out, nothing happens. What should I do?
 
A vet trip is the next step I would say.
Do you feed in the cage or out?. It may be compacted
 
I almost always feed outside the cage or feed on a platform in the cage where her food doesn't come into contact with the substrate.
 
Update

Well I was holding my corn today and she pooped on me. It was great. Now I definately know that she isn't compacted or having digestion problems. I will take a poo on my shirt for that.
