A member asked:

How do i know if i perforated my colon? i've been feeling confusion ever since i did anal masturbation, altho i think i only got like 5 inches w/pen.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

? recent incident ?: If it would ever happen you would develop fever, abdominal pain and nausea within hours. Untreated this would lead to death within a few days if not sooner from massive infection. The colon is pretty forgiving, so don't assume you perforated it if you have some minor pain.
