Hi,I am Dr. Subhankar Chakraborty (Gastroenterologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
My bowel function, ie the action of the bowel that causes the elimination of fecal matter, is basically non-functional. The only way I can have a bowel movement is to strain my lower abdomen muscles. This started several years ago after a severe case of constipation.
Detail history and physical examination give exact idea.. Barium abdominal x ray helpful in diagnosis... Colonoscopy can done for further diagnosis.. Consult a gastroenterologist for further diagnosis..
I hope my guidance helpful to you.. Take care. Thank you.
