A differentiere way to have bowel movement
Posted: Sat Oct 03, 2020 6:18 pm
Hi
Thanks for letting me ask about some challenges I have with my bowel program.
I live in a home for the physically handicapped and need help with any physical task, including going to the toilet. I can not sit on the toilet, so I lie on a couch in the bathroom.
I'm sorry if I'm too direct, but I've read some other topics in here, so I think I can ask about this.
For daily I use Peristeen anal plugs, from morning until I go to bed. They work really well for me. I have only very few accidents.
My regular caregives on site perform my bowel program.
Now they have changed my bowel program after the hospital I am affiliated with has changed their guidelines regarding my bowel program. so I have been hospitalized for a few days, to get my bowel program adjusted. Over the last six months, my bowel program has taken longer and longer and harder to get completed. I do not know what I think about it.
Since I was discharged from the hospital five years ago, I have been using the suppository for half an hour before my caregivers use digital stimulation for about half a minute up to three times. At the same time they give me abdominal massage which also has a good effect.
After giving one or two suppositories and waiting for it to work. Then they start with digital stimulation.
Now they need to insert the finger 2 to 2.5 inches and moving in circular motions about three minutes at the rate of approximately one second per turn.
i feel like it's a long time, sorry my language, they need to have a finger my anus, but that's what my caregivers were instructed in.
at the same time they have been instructed during or between doing digital stimulation, to do perianal massage / support, to relax my sphincters. They press two fingers on the area between the anus and scrotum in the direction of the anus, and continue pushing in pulses of 3 to 5 seconds each.
They have said that I and my caregivers should try the new method, for two months, to assess whether it is better and whether it helps me.
usually I am determined and persistent when the hospital suggests new ways to help me with different things, and although it is not too uncomfortable, it is a special feeling to have to be stimulated in the three places at the same time.
I'm going to continue and do as the hospital suggests some time, but I'm really in doubt about their suggestion to do so.
I need to hear from you what you think about it? I do not want to spend so much time on my bowel program, so I really want to give it a try. I hope you will share your thoughts on it
I apologize for my wording, but I needed to use Google translate to express myself accurately.
Thanks for letting me into the community.
