Hi,I am Dr. Subhankar Chakraborty (Gastroenterologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hello, I am a male, 25 years old. I have a strange problem related to bowel movement. I am not able to pass stools completely. This is not because I have constipation. I eat salads, fruits, drink sufficient water. My stools are normal but they stop halfway and then the internal pressure just goes away and I am left half clean only. Its like after a certain time my reflex actions pull the stool inside and anxiety add on. I am not able to be totally relaxed and concentration is only on the bowel movement. I am not able to distract myself. I donot know if it is the stress or anxiety. Is there a way to regain the internal pressure even if one's stools stop midway? I know its not natural but hope there is some way. Can you please help? I am depressed because its ruined my life for a long time now. Thank you very much.
HI Well come to HCM I really appreciate your concern, as you said this is not constipation but this could be due applying undue force during defection if you are going to exert the force then this would nullifies the defecation contraction force and you wont be able to pass the complete stool, and such applying force is functional condition, because of over consciousness about less stool passing or incomplete defecation, but as matter of fact this may not be the really cause, so do not apply force and everything would be fine, take care.
