burn so bad, you can't poop?

fqMember

last night i had some spicy salsa. Silly me.

all night my butt was on fire! i may as well have sat on a platter of chiles

Well, it burned so bad that..... I COULDN'T POOP! Poop tried to come out, then ouch! burn!, it "slithered" itself back in. It almost felt like i was very strictured and had to strain. i sat in the bath, which helped. but no matter how much i needed to poop, my brain did not let the fire-hot-acid stool pass through my anus. a reflex because of the pain, maybe?

has this happened to anyone? the butt burn was so bad, that you couldn't poop?

or do you think it is another problem entirely? like stricture again? UGH.

thank you!

When it comes to butt burn, I can't remember it feeling any different between spicy or un-spicy food. Zinc Oxide has always defeated it though.

I'm just about three weeks out from having takedown surgery and
went a little crazy earlier this week and had a couple of small
chile verde burritos. Just chile verde wrapped in a flour tortilla,
no rice, beans or salsa added. It was spicy and I thought I was going
to be paying a heavy price for it but wasn't too bad. Diced Jalapenos
or Serranos in salsa might be taking it to a whole new level though....

Thanks ... Has it ever burned so bad that you can't get poop out?
Or is this probably something else? Help!

There might be a little pain excreting bowel movements but wiping myself clean is where I'll feel the pain the most if I have butt burn. It doesn't happen to me much but I always have zinc oxide on hand just in case.

UGH, turns out I have a fissure.

!&*%$^ it hurts so bad!

Doc says to have sitz baths.

- What causes a fissure?
- How long before it heals?

thanks.

I was going to say, this sounds more like a fissure than standard butt burn. Sitz baths and Calmoseptine help, however, you can also get prescription cream with lidocaine if things get very uncomfortable.

thanks, Spooky.

What causes fissures in j-pouches? I don't ever want it again, so if there is anything I can do to prevent it, i will try it.

thanks
