I feel like I have to take a shit but when I go to the toilet, nothing comes out. What am I supposed to do?
Miralax (or the store brand equivalent) works wonders. It won’t help that day, but you should be able to dominate one the next day.If Miralax doesn’t help, there’s a colonoscopy prep called “GoLYTELY”. It’s behind the counter at the pharmacy; you just have to ask for it. That name is bullshit. Call into work for about 2 days, and be ready to sleep in the bathroom. When it hits, IT HITS. Hardcore. My husband had a bowel obstruction. The doctors were about to do surgery, when an old Cajun nurse slipped in our room with a big bottle of this stuff (about a gallon), and just said “Honey, start drinking. As much, as fast as you can. You won’t be going to surgery, I promise.”Jesus, was she right. We finally had to unhook all his monitors and let him drag his IV to the bathroom. She gave him bag after bag of fluids. No surgery the next day. Clean as a whistle.If neither of those work, you may have a serious blockage of some kind. Time to head to the ER. Lack of bowel movement can make you extremely ill if you let it go.
After going #2, do you wipe until there's absolutely nothing, no smear whatsover, on the toilet paper?
yes, if you leave poop on your bum, you may get a rash.
I feel like pooping but nothing comes out HELP?
Sounds like you don't have any blockages, so there are lots of things you can do. Here are some: 1) add lots of fruits and vegetables to your diet. This will give you tons of fiber!! Pretty well any fruits and veggies will do, but the darker colored ones like strawberries, broccoli, greens, prunes (stewed prunes are like rocket fuel for producing poopies!!) are the healthiest and usually best: 2) Drink lots of water.... your pee should be almost clear: if it isn't, then you aren't drinking enough 4) Substitute whole grain cereals like 6 or 12 grain cereal or oatmeal (the coarse stuff is best, although it takes a bit longer... but the quick-cook will do. Just avoid the "instant" oats.. too refined) for your special k and trix. Packaged cereals have VERY little fiber, and very little nutrition: they are useless and produce consitpation as you are finding out. 5) Prune juice or stewed prunes. Works well!! Good luck with this. Whole grains, lots of fruits and veggies, lots of water and prunes.. you should be pooping in no time!! Also, its much healthier - they add artificial vitamins to most cereals and white bread but its just NOT the same as the real vitamins you find in whole grains.
Is it normal to only go to the toilet once a week?
It’s not normal, but it’s not necessarily a problem either. I have a friend who, for many years at least, went to the toilet for a #2 once a week every week. The same day of the week and generally the same time of day, too. He had a favorite toilet at the college campus where he was a professor and he would arrange his schedule to be near that toilet for his scheduled weekly dump. He is, despite this fairly unusual defecatory habit, in generally good health.He obviously did #1 far more frequently.
Why after pooping I feel like there is more left but when I push nothing comes out?
As Tasha’s answer said, you may be constipated. Poop should be solid, but not hard, and “logs” basically.If you decide to take a stool softener, try something more natural. Never take a stimulant laxative. Try metamucil or even epsom salts. Yes, you heard me right- Epsom Salts. However, Epsom Salts are strong, and not good for people who need low-magnesium or sodium diets- in general, they are a last resort, if you’ve nothing else on hand and no money and/or insurance.Metamucil is very good, and is more natural.Things like prune juice, and other natural foods or drinks with natural fiber are best, if that is enough to do the trick.You should have a healthy poop at least once, or even twice a day- if you eat 3 meals, or even two decent ones.Fiber is key. Eat fruits and especially green vegetables!Happy “Constitutionals”. ;)*EDIT: I need to add that many medications can cause constipation, amongst other things more serious such as health problems. At any rate, you should be pooping as described at the very least, once a day. If the symptoms do not go away after eating more fiber- then within a few days you really need to talk to your doctor.
I couldn't pee after getting fingered?
My boyfriend fingered me last night for a while and it was great. But after, i really had to pee but i when i sat on the toilet, nothing came out. I tried again a little later, only a little came out. Not til like 2 hours later could I actually pee everything out. I've done a little research and people were saying they felt like they had to pee because of orgasm coming on and stuff. But i know that wasn't the case, because I really felt like my bladder was full, i had to keep moving like i usually do when i have to pee, and it hurt to lay on my stomach. Is this normal? or should I be worried?
Bright red blood on toilet paper?
I am a 16 year old male. About 20 min ago, i went to the bathroom and pooped. When i pooped, it felt like it was stretching out my anus and you know it just felt like a really big poo...I burped like twice because air came up (dont know if that matters) and i thought nothing of it. Now me, I look down and look at my stool just because its what i do. I saw three pieces, i think one broke in half, and they looked normal. So i sent a text on my phone because i felt no pain. When i wiped, i looked and there is bright red blood covering most of the toilet paper surface. So now i start sweating and worrying, while lightly swiping my anus with toilet paper. After the first wipe, most of the blood was gone, and every wipe after just had a little bit of blood. The blood was sometimes a little dark, but it looked brown so i think it just mixed with some of the poo. I feel fine now. I personally think I stretched my anus out too much and it kind of cut (anal fissure?) and made me bleed. For my whole life, when i wiped a little too hard after cleaning my butt, I get just a LITTLE TINY amount of blood on the toilet paper. This is when I think nothing of it, but just now was the first time I ever saw so much blood. The only pain i felt was a slight stinging pain when the poo was coming out, just like it was stretching it too much. I saw no blood in the toilet water! Should I be worried?
OMG boyfriend just saw my "number 2" in the toilet how embarrassing what to do?
This is sooo gross and I am so embarrassed but I went to the bathroom #2 and I am on my period and I did not flush because I was about to take a shower and it always burns me when I flush right before so I waited til after but FORGOT. I live with my bf of 3 years (hes 22) and he came home and went to use the bathroom and then I hear this yell "oh my gosh" then "you went to the bathroooommm ahhh i wish i hadn't seen that" and things of that nature. I ran to flush it and because I am on my period the water was red and cloudy (gross-SRY!) and I tried to play it off like oh I am on my period you just saw a tampon ugh calm down. I am SOOOOO EMBARRASSED .I know...everyone poops, But I feel liek that changes the way a guy sees his girl, that is not cute at all it is nasty and something you do NOT want your man to see. I have myself locked in the bedroom right now and do not want to face him!! What should I do...this is the worst!!
