Suggest Treatment For Constipation And Rectal Bleeding
Question: I have rectal bleeding, and have been constipated 3 days now. I only bleed when I try to go.
A friend suggested fleet enema. I have taken ducalax, but still haven't had bowel movement after
8 hours. Still have some abdominal pain, but not as bad as before. I am thinking I may have colitis
of some type, what can I do, I must get better in 2 days to take care of my 90 year old mother. She
used to get colitis, diverticulitis, or something like I have. I know I have a bad diet, and need to make
immediate changes.
It's urgent that I do something now, or at least within a few hours, or ASAP
