Reply to "Time Spent In Bathroom / Difficulty Emptying Pouch"

You may be suffering from Fissures within the Anal Canal.

A day or so after my takedown surgery I experienced a similar sensation as yourself, kinda feeling like I needed to go but nothing happening and once I finished, I'd have to dash back and start over; at the time I didn't know what expect but I had the sensation of needing to pass something more than what was coming out, which was never ending.

I managed to apply ilex paste just within the Anal Sphincter which provided instant relief of the pain and discomfort and also stopped the desire to keep opening my bowel.

However, on the ilex Paste packaging, it clearly states For External Use Only, so bear this in mind, although for years, every so often, I've applied the ilex Paste internally and without issues.
