Common Questions and Answers about Colon cleansing using enemas

I think it depends on the type of enema. Using enemas frequently for constipation can cause your rectum to "forget" how to have a bowel movement naturally. Using enemas for "colon cleansing", I believe is not good, because your colon doesn't need any cleansing, it does this itself.
Sometimes sipping on plain old hot water and/or putting a heat source, like a heating pad or a hot water bottle over the painful part of the colon actually helps. And, since you need water often when your colon is constipated, there is no harm in using a bit of hot water and drinking it like you would tea or coffee. In fact, steer clear of real tea (black, green or white) and coffee and any herbs that are known to be diuretics, because these will draw water away from the colon.
I have never had to do enemas, but have you tried adding magnesium citrate to help your muscles?
i've herard enemas are good for weight loss and stomatch bloating, is this correct and where can i buy them please?
how about enemas? is it also very harmful as laxative ( dulcolax )? Just wonder for the condition of such patient, what is the best solution if they can't quit using enemas and laxative? Is total colectomy operation is the best solution or worst decision?
I have made many comments about the same issue. I noticed the mucous during cleansing. At first dark, but now tissuey after doing a lot of cleansing and colinics. I hope you can find some of the posts made on similar questions. Under the ribcage is generally gallbladder blockage to the bile duct and liver toxins - I've been going through this for 5 years - took a long time to figure out the problem.
Rest your colon usually just means don't eat things that make your colon have to work harder. What you should eat varies from doctor to doctor. It doesn't mean that you stop using your colon completely.
My next is, how long have you been using laxatives and enemas? If those things are over used...your colon could become void of the good bacteria and enzymes needed to properly breakdown and propel the stool down and out.
You don't mention your age, sex or any history of illnesses. I am left to assume many things.
I have diverticulosis. I also have Sjogrens syndrome...
ve been using enemas 3 times a week for about 4 months just to be able to function. When my surgeon reversed the colostomy (with open surgery) I had terrible adhesions. I also sometimes have pain and a tight knotted feeling ewhere the colosomy scar is and beneath the scar in the colon. Does anyone have any clues as to what might be causing my problems? After reading the other posts I suspect it could be adhesions, nerve damage, partial obstruction.
If constipation is a problem, try switching to a diet which guarantees at least 40g of fiber per day, using supplementation (psyllium husk supplementation like Metamucil) if necessary. Using chemical laxatives can lead to a further weakening of the colon, which can lead to further constipation, which can lead to other conditions. In short, fiber is your friend.
Specific detox diets vary — but typically a period of fasting is followed by a strict diet of raw vegetables, fruit and fruit juices, and water. In addition, some detox diets advocate using certain herbs and other supplements along with colon cleansing (enemas) to help empty the intestines. Most detox diets last seven to 10 days.
Some people report feeling more focused and energetic during and after detox diets.
Lately I have tried mixing vinegar with warm water and doing small 8 oz enemas, frequently; I have released tons of opaque tissue. It feels good when I release it but I can't find anyone who can tell me what it is. I am going to assume it is lymphatic tissue that has attached to colon lining. Of course 'opaque' tissue won't show up in tests I suppose and that is why they can't find anything wrong with me.
My GI has run thousands of tests on me and has diagnosed me with chronic constipation. He said at this point there are no more medications for me. I saw a colon surgeon and he said colon removal surgery was an option. My GI says we should just do the daily enemas for now but I am in constant discomfort with back pain and fatigue, and the enemas are no longer offering relief. What type of doctor do I need now, after my GI and colon surgeon. Are there motility specialists?
please see a urogynecologist...you most likely have pelvic organ prolapse! I developed this after my hysterectomy and also look into pelvic floor dysfunction...I understand your misery as I have been living since 2005...went from laxatives, to mag citrate to enemas to colon hydrotherapy...dr's saying I was addicted to the above methods...after a 6.5 hour surgery correcting my anatomy I went from the above methods to going 4-8 times a day...
s advice have been taking 4-5 enemas at home about every other day. Even with the enemas there is minimal production and/or relief, not to mention to unbearable cramping pains! I have had an abdominal/pelvic CT scan, lower GI, sigmoidoscopy, as well as many abdominal X-rays with no diagnosis. My pathology report has come back normal from my flex sig., however, my surgeon did say that during the procedure he noticed an area that was somewhat rigid and would not inflate with the air.
