Hi try some orange juice to make you go or a prune or try drinking lot of water what did you eat past 2 days, don't eat any eggs until you've gone to toilet as they bung you up more I've sometimes had bouts of this or the reverse it can be controlled with diet usually xx

Also I think the pain will be as you've got what's trying to come out your intestine stuck in there is pressing on the intestine wall and I often get this pain I was told I have IBS 6 years ago and I suspected this some years before on food intolerance, you can always get a laxative from chemist or call to speak to pharmacist but someone more experienced should help you on here in the meantime, let me know how you get on and I'm thinking with Xmas new year gone you may have eat too much and different food, take care hope you find some relief from this soon if not already also try walking about and give your intestine a bit of a rub, Mandy

Hi Tewbarz ,

Have you spoken with the doctor about the issue? They may have you come in/call and get a prescription for some laxatives to be either mixed into a drink or given as a pill. How long has this been happening? What have you been eating recently?

YOU NEED TO BUY CHIA SEEDS YOU CAN PUT THEM IN ANYTHING .I PUT A TABLESPOON IN MY OATS I MAKE ON A NIGHT THEN PUT IN THE FRIDGE FOR THE NEXT DAY. EAT PLENTY OF FRUIT AND VEG AND DRINK SO EVERYTHING GETS FLUSHED OUT. ALSO HAVE APPLECIDER VINEGAR AND LEMON IN BOILED WATER EVERY MORNING. AND THEN THERE WILL BE A NEW YOU. GOOD LUCK. 🐱 🐹

Try and do some walking or any sort of movement. Look up all the things you can do with the CHIA seeds.🐱🐹

From my experience, a 2 step process is needed, 1 your current situation needs to be fixed ASAP, 2 an ongoing program should be started

Currently , you are either impacted or quickly getting there, where your stool has stayed in place allowing any fluid that was present in it has or is currently being Re absorbed, resulting in a stool that is dried in place, stuck, and must come out.

If you can’t remove it safely at home, you may need to go to the hospital for professional treatment

I found that miralax is the best product for this issue, after consultation originally with my dr. Suggest you call dr and see if a combination of miralax plus ducalax with a lot of fluids is ok. I might include a self enema as well to get at this problem.

If you are brave enough and can stomach it , you can try to carefully help remove the matter with your fingers to help things along, also using Vaseline to line your Rectal walls to decrease friction and potential tearing. BUT you must be VERY careful not to create tears in the Rectal wall. Carefully trim your nails help insure this doesn’t happen.

On an ongoing basis, taking a good fiber powder with your fluids is a good maintenance program together with a good diet with healthy fiber foods with fluids.

At some point , a colonoscopy might be recommended.

Good luck!

I wish I could do that. I have a hemorrhoid and I bleed a lot. I hope it works for Tewbarz.

Maybe there is something else going on. It could be IBS. It could be inflammation. I just read another post where the person found they had a hernia. I am hesitant to write this because I am not trying to scare you. But maybe see your doctor to see what may be going on.
