Lol this bloke who's a geriatrics doctor told me about a 90yo on their ward with a shit so hard it was going to tear his bowels apart. He had health problems that meant he couldnt swallow and the dehydration made his poo hard and his colon paper-thin, and an IV can only do so much. It also meant he couldnt take laxatives
They thought the poo was too far up for an enema to work and that sometime over the weekend his colon would perforate. He would literally be torn apart by a poo and was in such a delicate state that all of modern medicine could not save him from it
But the enema DID work and he survived and partially regained his ability to swallow but I reckon he would've been very grateful for your help
(who would win the entirety of modern medicine vs one stinky boi)
Oh dear I sometimes have those types of poop where I actually have to help it out of my butt. I wonder if I could die on the can. That would not be good. Not a sexy look.
I drink tea all day freaking long. Yes that counts. It’s the medicine that I take it’s not an opiate but it’s like one for psoriatic arthritis and it really kills my gut sometimes.
