Avatar m tn They resected my colon and removed the entire rectum. They were able to reconnect the colon so I did not have to have a colostomy. But now I have a constant feeling that I have to have a bowel movement. I take 3-4 Imodium per day. I need to get back to work but worry I may have problems. My work is very physicial for 8 straight hours.
Avatar n tn Ulcerative colitis is a disease that causes inflammation and sores, called ulcers, in the lining of the rectum and colon. Ulcers form where inflammation has killed the cells that usually line the colon, then bleed and produce pus. Inflammation in the colon also causes the colon to empty frequently, causing diarrhea. When the inflammation occurs in the rectum and lower part of the colon it is called ulcerative proctitis. If the entire colon is affected it is called pancolitis.

Avatar n tn I had ulcerative colitis and had to have my colon and rectum removed. I have something called a J-pouch to replace my rectum and generally everything works well! Several times I had motility issues with my small intestine but it was medication related (anethesia from surgeries close together, anti-diarheaa) and improved within 2 weeks.
Avatar f tn Six years ago he was diagnosed with ulcerative colitis, and it extended from inside his rectum all the way up and around the first bend in his colon. He never took medication for it, because he's hardheaded - but he smokes, and the nicotine had kept him from ever having any flare-ups. Today he had a follow-up colonoscopy, and the doctor seemed very shocked to find that my husband has absolutely NO signs of ever having the ulcerative colitis.
Avatar f tn Hi, I'm a nutritionist who has been suffering from chronic bowel problems my entire life. As a result I've learned a great deal about them. I hope I can help you. First of all, are you on a high fiber, low animal fat diet? (Be honest with yourself) In other words, do you eat lots of whole grains like..brown rice, whole wheat bread, oatmeal,etc..and raw vegetable salads, raw fruit, and beans?
Avatar f tn Call your doctor and explain you have only had two bowel movements in a month. If you really have only pooped twice in a month and have been eating normally, your colon is full of hard, impacted fecal material. Don't take anything (laxatives or anything) lest it increase the pressure on the hard stuff that is blocking things.

Avatar n tn I have fluid around my rectum diagnosed by sonogram in Jan 08 and by CT June 08. The fluid amount is greater on the CT. The CT was then followed by a CT-guided drainage of "pelvic" fluid, which after two attempts could not yield any fluid. I have had two bouts of terrific abdominal pain, one in April and one just before the CT, that lasted two days each. My internal med doctor felt that originally it might be kidney stones vs liver disease vs diverticulitis.
Avatar n tn Can you describe the pain you feel? Abdominal pain is rare in colon cancer. Cancer of the colon and rectum can exhibit itself in several ways such as: bleeding from your rectum or blood mixed with your stool; fatigue and pale skin; abdominal distension; abdominal pain; persistent nausea or vomiting; unexplained weight loss; change in frequency or character of stool; sensation of incomplete evacuation after a bowel movement or rectal pain. The duration of symptoms usually takes 14 weeks.

Avatar m tn Hello. It isn't safe to place something in your rectum such as deodorant as you've been advised on a previous post. We advise you to go to the ER for this experience.
Avatar f tn I had Rectocele graft When the Doctor did the surgery he some how went through my colon. I was very sick after surgery stayed in hospital 3 days. I had trouble having bowel movement. I had infection and sick for 2 weeks. I was telling the DR. that something was pulling and hurting my tail bone and worse with bowel movement. He looked in my rectum and said the arm of the graft was through the colon and stitched to my tail bone he cut the arm in half.
Avatar f tn Cancer has spread beyond the middle tissue layers of the colon wall or has spread to nearby tissues around the colon or rectum. Stage IIB: Cancer has spread beyond the colon wall into nearby organs and/or through the peritoneum. Stage II colon cancer is sometimes called Dukes B colon cancer. Stage III Stage III colon cancer is divided into stage IIIA, stage IIIB, and stage IIIC.
Avatar f tn One would remove my entire colon and join my small bowel to my rectum. The other one would leave 6 – 8 inches of my sigmoid colon. Do you know which of these is most often done for colonic inertia? Is one more effective than the other? In addition, the one taking my entire colon would join the small bowel to the rectum at a right angle. The other one would attach the small bowel going straight down into the sigmoid colon. Do you know which of these techniques is best?
