A member asked:
If you have a bowel stricture from crohns inflammation and fibrosis, is bowel prep safe? pre-prep only going to toilet once every 35 hours (not normal for me) and after going have severe pain?

Stricture: If you feel that you're constipated,bloated and having some abdominal cramping, I would be concerned about your taking a strong laxative like a bowel prep. I would like to have the opinion of a colorectal surgeon who can assess the degree of stricture in your colon.
