wondering if any of us with troubled intestines(lol like everyone on this site i guess) from time to time in any day has a real painful bm as in feels like acid coming out..then rest of day could be ok as to output..might add this happening with no real change in diet..

wondering if its just a question of the mix of foods that causes that..any ideas on this..tonight had one of those experiences and out came my sitz bath after i went..relief..

Try to wipe clean after every time with generous amount of Vaseline. That will protect for next movement. Calmiseptine works too, but I only go to that if repeated problems. Can be acid in food- spicy or tomatoes/ sauce or if intestine more empty. I also take Colestipol to reduce my stomach acid. Good luck!

ljz do you take this colestipol everyday or how do you use it?

and i think this sensation i am talking about is not a burn from irritation its i think in the output itself because i can feel it build up inside down there when i have to go..more likely acid caused by food,empty?

i know the other sensation from irritation of wipes this is definitely different..
Rebecca, I take 1 gram pill of Colestipol with each meal and at bedtime. Actually this is small dose, but has made the difference for me! I think it attaches to bile, but however it works it feels like it neutralizes the output so even with my 15-20 movements per day I have no BB! I still maintain my Vaseline routine with every movement and tuck a round cosmetic cotton pad or Tri-folded 2 squares high quality TP up there. No exceptions. I do notice if I miss a dose, and may occasionally have little BB after eating tomatoes/sauce, but I follow each dietary splurge with bland food to keep it in tow. Have hardly had to use Calmoseptine past 2 months. Just switched to Lomotil instead of Immodium, and am using Canasa suppositories for Cuffitis, diagnosed yesterday, so hoping to get my # down below 10! Good luck Rebecca! Hope you can talk with your Dr. or nurse about trying Colestipol or similar product.
