Enema: An enema is used to stimulate the colon so that you can have a bowel movement. So, when you place the liquid inside the bowel it causes the bowel to increase its contractions. Also the liquids from the enema will make a rushing sound as it pushed in the colon. I usually don't recommend frequent use of enemas for my patients. If you are having to use them regularly you need to talk to your doc.
