Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I was severely constipated and hadn t had a bm in almost a week after trying myself with Miriam 3x daily for 3 days I went to the ER and the did an enema and it worked to clear me out completely! Now a day later when I went to the bathroom and had a normal bm there was quite a bit of blood on the toilet paper when I wiped. So I wiped again and the same happened! Is this normal? I m worried!!!
According to your complain you have problem of severe constipation problem that may be because of inadequate taking of water and fiber in diet. Any intestinal obstruction may cause severe constipation problem. Irritable bowel syndrom may ruled out.
You mention some amount of blood in stool that may be because of ulcerative colitis or other intestinal infection. Hemorroid or anal fissure may cause blood in stool. Abdominal ultra sonography is helpful for diagnosis.Colonoscopy is helpful fot further diagnosis. Consent a gastroenterologist for further diagnosis.
I hope my guidance helpful to you.. Take care. Thank you.
