I'll have to try this whole wiping thing sometime, I guess there's lots of other people doing it so perhaps it's a good idea.Artificial Emotion, I'm going to echo what's already been said: Subway sandwiches are not giving you the fiber you need. It's fine to eat meat but try to incorporate veggies and fruits every day. I like Wendy's salads and take them home mixed with my own romaine and spinach. Broccoli, carrots and cauliflower are tasty with some yogurt or creamy dressing and fill you up nicely. Same with baked potatoes.
I had a yoga instructor tell me if you're not having two bowel movements a day, you're constipated. My GI doctor did not agree with that assessment. For the mess left over from bowel movements, unscented baby wipes have been a big help to me. I've had IBS for years and found that certain medications seem to amp it up.
Specified, don't ball up the bathroom tissue- that's wasteful. Instead, fold it over a few times and you won't need to use so much.![]()
I find I keep having incomplete bowel movements where my rectum doesn't seem to fully evacuate. Sometimes I have firmer poops which don't make a mess and I barely need to wipe to clean myself but more often than not I can't squeeze out the whole stool. I keep wiping and wiping but I still see poop on the toilet paper and by the end of the day my ass becomes dirty again.
Is there anything I can do to solve this issue? Any tips?
No I agree with CH.
You need to go pretty deep. Relax your anus and swipe as deep as you can. You don't even need to "finger" it, just swipe hard while relaxing your anus.
Not very much. It's better to work on incorporating more fiber into your diet. As a simple trick you can usually add some grated carrot to almost any dish. Ditto sliced mushrooms or peppers.Will pribiotics help?
wat about hot dogs?
