First years of IF were amazing - soft poop on time, every single day. But after like 10 years, something happened, and I either get these pretty hard, yet kind of soft? but greesy like poops that haaardly pass through, or these that have hard beginning and soft mid and end. Sometimes I just want to drop IF, but I would feel horrible overall eating breakfasts again.

A couple of points I would like to make. First (and as always), Dr. Chung makes excellent points here. I saw Dr. Chung for the first time on a video consult, after which he became my regular proctologist. I live close enough that I can go to his office. Second, I learned that he takes a very 'regular guy' kind of approach. He does not hide behind grand words and self-aggrandizing doctor-speak. he represents a medical practice mind set that I wish was far more common.

Kindly, could you run this by Dr Chung and see how much he laughs or agrees? My doctor is a good surgeon and good doctor but he sees his patients for like 3 mins and leaves. Doesn’t give much info.

@theeradic5629 Месяц назад

@@Jimmy_The_Goat I would say it worked. I would have targeted I didn’t have to get the surgery but the cardizem cream wasn’t working well. The only thing that worries me is that sometimes I still can’t sit for as long or comfortably as I could before which is inconvenient because I drive for a living. I still have to wipe a certain way which is different than before. I still get itchy from time to time. Nothing feels the same which sucks. However, I still feel the surgery was probably necessary and it did ease the pain immediately. Doctor said I’m 100% healed. When I exercise, i.e. play basketball or push ups, I feel most comfortable after that. So maybe I just need to strengthen the area properly. Idk. It worked. I would recommend it. Just make sure you have a great trustworthy doctor. Took about 2 weeks for real relief after the surgery but it was less painful immediately after compared to the unbearable pain I was in prior.

@yellowdiamonddoesntapprove6632 5 месяцев назад

Dear Dr Chung, I want to first of all thank you for your consultation a few months back that really changed my attitude towards my problems with my fissure. Your channel gives me so much positivity and hope that when I get my flare ups I'll have relief. I admire your transparency and a lot of the things you say hold a lot of truth, particularly the fibre intake being a unique thing to each person. Moreover, I think the kind of fibre is also very different depending on each person. I have found a lot of relief from fruits that get me going a lot more than vegetables do. Fruit is so demonised because of its sugars, but I think people forget how wonderful it actually is for the gut. It's what you said - everyone is completely different and should experiment with their diets. I have found food/poop diaries to be extremely useful!! Again, thank you for talking about a subject that a lot of people suffer in silence with. I hope your channel continues to grow and grow (I'm sure it will), and that you continue to give us not only good information, but pretty dang GOOD VIBES. Have a wonderful day doctor and thank you!!

Dear Doctor Chung! You do not know how much your videos helped me. I had been suffering from anal fissure for the past 4 months. I am at a stage where it has healed 90%. I feel no pain and blood stains. Just slight discomfort, though. A lot of times, I had severe pain. So much pain for up to 12 hrs every day that sometimes I even got suicidal thoughts. Your videos made me learn about my lifestyle mistakes. I started owning my pain and have taken steps to be healthy. Dr Chung! I can't thank you more. Your videos not only give remedial ideas, they are also a way to get psychological relief from the depressive mental pain one goes through during anal fissures/ hemorrhoids. Thank you so much on behalf of thousands of patients. To the patients, please keep hope. Good days will come. Meanwhile, keep steering your lifestyle towards health. All the best! 🙂

I had a colectomy scheduled a few years ago because I had a BM evey 2 weeks and was diagnosed with colonic inertia. I tried just about everything to stop being uncomfortable. I would drink 3-4 liters of water daily and ate my fruits and veggies. Magnesium Citrate didn't work for me. It gave me a lot of gas, made me distended and very uncomfortable. A couple of weeks before my surgery, my friend gave me a bottle of 400mg magnesium oxide capsule and those saved my life, honestly. I now have daily BM. I take about 2-3 capsules daily but now i need to figure out my diet and how to stay regular. There are times where I'll have 4-5 loose stools a day. Or i can go a few days without a BM if I forget to take my magnesium. What it all boils down to is that everyone is different and there isn't a "one size fits all" remedy. Everyone's body chemistry is different and we need to find which formula works for our body's blueprint. But magnesium is definitely a magical remedy for many digestive ailments. It's a shame doctors don't turn to it before prescribing medications.

A small bowl of bran cereal and almond milk for breakfast and one before bed and a glass of apple juice with each meal, a few yoga techniques like the wind pose for instance, and a massage using an upside down U from the ascending colon to the descending colon works wonders. Sitting with one leg crossed over the other at the knee or higher and switching periodically can also get things moving. As an aside: If you use one of those potty steps to raise your feet, you are doing a modified version of the Yoga wind pose. I have found that raising a single foot, start with left and then lowering it and raising right creates a sort of 'bicycle' twisting action that can get things going. I have a child with autism who has severe constipation, encopresis, etc. Update: Wanted to add one more tip, roll a rolling pin under its own weight (Dont' press down on it!!!) upwards on the ascending colon and downwards on the descending colon side. It helps to breakdown those stubborn clumps that are stuck.

I felt sorry for what my intestines colon rectum went through all those months of severe diareah. I have regained my strength and its a year later. Iam still on a strong Probiotic and I eat lots of fermented foods. I avoid antibiotics at all costs sice Iam high risk and try and stay healthy. I dont know why Iam telling this I guess bc I have PTSD from the hell I went through w Cdiff. Thanks for all you do Doctor❤ I love your channel!

I only had Cdiff for a few weeks and am still traumatized by it so I can only imagine how bad it was after 8 months! I am trying fermented food too and I think it is helping. The food intolerances are what really drive me crazy. I could eat most things before Cdiff and now have to watch everything.

I first went to the Dr with mild abdominal pain. He thought maybe I have kidney stones and prescribed Amoxicillin as a general antibiotic. Well ten days later I was painting the toilet red with straight blood, I thought I was going to die, I wish I would have died. The ER almost had to remove my colon but thankfully not. I will forever have ptsd from the hell I experienced and the long recovery. I now wash my hands 20 times per day, bleach the bathroom every week, and stay away from all public bathrooms and restaurants. I’m actually crying just thinking about what we’ve been through. Wish you all the best for the future. Fred.

Dear Doctor Chung! I’ve had chronic diarrhea for three months. I went to a GI doc who gave me a stool sample test. It came back positive for Norovirus. I never even knew I had been sick with that! I just thought it was a severe flare-up of my usual IBS, due to recent stress. I have a colonoscopy scheduled in a couple weeks. For now, could this be post infectious IBS?? My last colonoscopy was three years ago. No IBD found, just a few small, benign polyps.

Dr. Chung, the first 1/4 portion of my poop (poop log) is very hard and clumpy. The log is one piece but the first 1/4 portion is hard & clumpy and then turns into a more softer log. To the point of causing bleeding at times. Is this something more serious or blockage somewhere in the GI tract or just constipation?

Hi Dear Dr. You are doing a real wonderful job here, advising fischer,hemorrhoid sufferers. I am from India. Since covid vaccination my problem of Fischer got worst(I came to know it after 2nd dose) and now the sphincter muscle is so rigid that every morning I get lot of pressure from inside but due to shrinkage of sphincter muscle I can not get rid of poop easily (which is actually soft) so many times I am on toilet seat and trapped in between passing stool process, doesn't understand what to do and I apply force which results in fischer then more swelling, pain, legs pain. It's a terror entering toilets when you have Fischer. Now a fistula has developed. Literally life is not fun anymore. I am constantly examining myself, my diet. I hope someday I will get real relief. And some food Literally helps you in this. Thanks doctor, I may write you a long letter about my this episode. God bless you. 🙏

My experience: After 2 years of misery (chronic IBS-C), I ended up with prescription 45ml Lactulose each day, after every other med had failed. Now, it’s like “clockwork”, I can go every day with perfect softness. Stuff works like a miracle. No pain, no side effects, for me. About two hours after taking it, it’s 💩 time. Of course, it works best, when combined with a healthy diet and lots of liquid intake. Also a blessing for the inner hemorrhoids, that were on the verge of prolapsing due to all the prior straining and long sitting sessions 🚽. Now, all is good, and everything can slowly heal. 👍

I am taking from 6 months , how to wean it off. .... Can we take it forever

@V8-friendly 5 месяцев назад

@@rachangoudapatilnidoni5058 Fairly safe to take, even prescribed to pregnant women, my gastroenterologist said. Just gradually reduce the dose to a point where you can go to the bathroom regularly without constipation. Was told a clear sign of a dosage being too high, is diarrhea. I started with 45ml/day for a while, now 30ml/day still works. In a few weeks trying 15ml. This stuff does not get digested or absorbed by your body. Large colon doesn’t like it, attracts water to get it out, which makes stool soft and then makes you have the urge to go. Only thing to watch long term, is possible imbalance of electrolytes which can be checked by a simple blood test, which I have done twice a year. Definitely less dangerous than those stimulant laxatives. Works for me, hope it works for you. Only side effect, In occasionally have is bloating/gas. Greetings from Ohio, USA, Marco

@@rachangoudapatilnidoni5058 My gastroenterologist said it is fairly safe, so even pregnant women can take it. Your body does not digest it or absorb it. Large colon gets irritated by it, absorbs fluid and softens stool, which then makes you go to the bathroom. A dosage too high manifests in diarrhea. A dosage too low manifests in constipation. Only long term, electrolytes should be checked which a simple blood test can do. I have this checked twice a year. My only occasional side effect is bloating and gas. If you want to wean off, just gradually reduce dose. There are no withdrawal effects, just constipation might come back. Drink plenty of water, have a good balance diet and add some exercise to it. Certainly much safer than chronic use of stimulating laxatives. I am not a doctor and I am just writing here what my gastroenterologist told me. Hope, it works for you.

It takes time for intestinal Microbes to adjust and establish new microbial communities that are responsible for breaking down the fiber. I was Learning about a Clinical Stuy that showed success in people who had problems with fiber... The process of introducing new fiber was long & Gradual. sometiems i think there is a bit of Rediclousness that can be part of the process (like adding in a tiny speck of broccoli into the meal of High School students Cafeteria Lunch....showed the students were more likly to eat more vegetables afterwards....i think there was a "Trick" component to the Experiment...where the Speck of Broccoli is so small, you are not sure if it is there by intention or accident.)

I have lipoedema and like a lot of lippy ladies, I adopted a low carb, sometimes keto, sometimes carnivore diet and ate all the things that can cause constipation! Mostly Meat, eggs, cheese…also did a lot of fasting and l’ve lost 25 kilos…but l still felt shit!! That’s because I was constantly full of it!! I had these terrible stomach attacks, incredibly painful and debilitating. I thought it was a heart attack the first time..called an ambulance and everything. It wasn’t. Then I thought gallbladder…or ulcer…stomach cancer….MS….parkinsons……the doctor just game me omeprazole. Eventually I saw a gastroenterologist, and he said it’s good ole fashioned constipation!! I could not believe it, but it made a lot of sense! Something so….simple, yet so impactful (pardon the pun!) Needless to say, I’m back on the fibre, drinking waaaaay more water (I have always been terrible keeping up with fluids) and the irony is, I actually prefer eating like this! I feel like a right idiot. My only worry now is if l put all weight back on!! I’ve been a bit carb-phobic. Anyway, I hope the intermittent fasting will still do the trick in helping me lose the weight I still need to lose whilst following this more balanced, high fibre diet. 🤞🏻 Thanks for these informative videos!

I was using magnesium for years, then I was put on antibiotics for an infection and the pills weren't supposed to be taken with magnesium. I got really constipated and really strained on a bowel movement. I got a fissure and it's been months and am going for a fissurectomy soon. I have been using diltiazem and bought the Pranicura but don't like the menthol in it. (they should have put in lidocaine instead!) I find Desitin works best to relieve the discomfort I also use Recticare cream like you had recommended.I take the magnesium every night and I have had no problems. I also have Colace too. No more hard poops! I eat a lot of fiber in my diet. I am bad at drinking water but am trying to get better at that.I am in my sixties and NEVER had a fissure before this!

@VelGoesBrrr 5 месяцев назад

I walk 5km (~45min) almost everyday (just before lunch break), don't eat too much proteins, toss in some 30g of nuts mix and drink at least 1.5L of water (unsweetened tea morning and evening + 2 coffees during the day). Not crazy, but it works perfectly for me! I also avoid alcohol outside of events: It becomes a spray mess really quickly :/ I started using a portable bidet (as japanese toilet style is not an option right now, but I plan to buy one) and wet wipes (specially made for hemorroids too) and care to not wipe or just really gently. I got there by myself after seeing a proctologist who immediately told me to go to surgery (with laser, but still...) after having my first (and hopefully last) hemorrhoidal thrombosis. I couldn't resolve to go to surgery after 'just' that (I went through hell for some months though...). Right now, a full year after, and for about ~4 months I am almost free from it (although, I'm starting to think it will never get back to 'normal', I have almost never pain, almost no pain even when I do, minor discomfort for some 2-3h after going to the bathroom) and still feeling it can get better but not sure. Thanks Dr Chung for your friendly advices and for sharing it with everyone needing it out there! :)
