Suggest Treatment For Constipation And Rectal Blockage
Question: I suffer from extreme constipation. my stool gets blocked by a ball like dried like stone at the end of rectum so I have to strain to pass this out with great difficulty then the rest flows out normally. what should I do. If I take 1 tablespoon of Cremmaffin every night then I have no problem.
Brief Answer:
Rectal obstruction: Get a proctoscopy done.
Detailed Answer:
Dear user,
Thanks for your faith in Haelthcare Magic.
I will directly answer your question by politely asking you to go to a surgeon so a PR (Per Rectal) examination can take place and a proctoscopy can be done. This is the best way to assess your real condition. I believe that what you have is a rectal polyp or a thrombosed internal haemmorhoid. The fact is that you need to be physically examined, so that you may benefit.
You're OK.

Dr. Neel Kudchadkar

As mentioned earlier I had recently a radical porostatectomy(robotic) done on 25 th feb 2015 the cancer was contained in the prostrate itself. Can I do a prroctoscopy so soon after the surgery as its not even a month. Untill such time can I take cremaffin every night before sleeping as I feel comfortable to pass a soft stool.

Brief Answer:
You can take it, there are no issues.
Detailed Answer:
Dear XXXX,
I sincerely feel that Cremaffin is an excellent choice for a laxative. I will show you another option - why not try Isabgol for perfect bowel movements? Isabgol is a naturally occurring substance extracted from plants. A table spoon after dinner mixed with milk, should work wonders.
I feel that Cremaffin is also a good choice. You can continue taking it, however you might prefer Isabgol, if you try it.
Considering all factors, you are OK.
Feel free to contact me.
Best wishes,
