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.
colon problems....I have had IBS for years suffering from constipation. This past week it has been very difficult for me to have a bowel movement. I feel the urge to go but when I go it feels like it goes to a certain point and then I can t push it out. This morning I felt back there and it felt like there was something hard there stopping my stool from coming out. when I used my muscles to retract it
Your symptoms seem to be related to faecal impaction. I recommended using over the counter option like the counter laxative such as Miralax. If the symptoms continue I recommend manual remove.
You should see a doctor for this procedure. I suggest you to drink liquids.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
