A member asked:
What enema or suppository is best when you have the sensation to go and the stool makes it to the rectum but the stool is too hard and painful to pass? in other words, stimulation isnt the issue, but the mass is hard and painful to push out?

Colace is usually helpful for constipation with hard stool. Diet modification with increase in high fiber like bran, beans, fresh fruits. Also drinking warm water instead of iced drinks tend to help. Consider prune Juice . Fleets Enema can help but A visit with PCP/Gastroenterologist might help to prevent avoidable complications
