Brief Answer:
Ensure high fibre diet

Detailed Answer:
Dear Ms

I would suggest the following remedy

1. Ensure good intake of fibre : 2 serving of vegetable salad and 2 serving of fruits especially citrus fruit will ensure adequate intake of fibre in diet.

2. Regularise your bowel habits : Apart from passing stools whenever you have urge to pass stools, also fix up time for passing stools preferably early morning . Spend. Good 30 minutes . Hot seitz bath before passing stools will be helpful.
To a tub of lukewarm water add 2 spoon of antiseptic solution. Sit in it for 15 minutes. This will relax muscle and help in easy passage of stools

3. Daily exercise; 30 minutes of brisk walking everyday will also promote intestinal motility and help in easy passage of stools

4. As much as possible avoid junk food

5. Retention Enema : 2 to 3 retention Enema will help clear loaded colon. This will facilitate easy passage of stools.
You can get it under the supervision of your Physician.


Do get back to me if you need any further assistance, will be glad to assist you.


Wishing you and your family a very happy and healthy life.


Take care

Best Regards
Dr Deepak Kaltari
