Proctitis and plugs

@Switchable Susie… you're the only one I can ask …

I'm an estim junkie. Most days I spend an hour or so with my estim gear..my wife isn't into sex anymore so I go my own way.

I use among other things, electric butt plugs…

Yesterday I had a colonoscopy. It was nited by the gastrointestinal surgeon that I have proctitis…. I have no symptoms, but I wonder if the plugs have caused that irritation.

I'll be talking to the surgeon, but I'm unlikely to throw this into the discussion.

In your experience could the estim cause irritation that appears to be proctitis?

Sorry wetman, but SSusie isn't on here anymore…….

I’ve had proctitis a couple of time. It was just an irritation of the colon

thanks guys, I didn’t know Susie was gone…. I know what it is…and its the rectum, not colon.

She was the only one I could think of with the experience to answer… 🤔

@wetman An inflammation of the rectum is the question I also asked myself. I started estim only 6 months ago and during an enema I felt a sensation of heat in the rectum even though the water was not very hot. I was surprised because it was the first time I had noticed this sensation.

I had also noticed that when I had gas I felt a sensation of heat in the anus. I stopped using anal probes 4 months ago and during my last enema I no longer had this sensation of heat (not more for gas). The rectal mucosa is fragile, it is possible that electric arcs could have caused small burns.

I had a similar experience, I was having problems with urinary incontinence after surgery, and was using an anal bipolar probe with a Tens unit for pelvic floor exercises. I believe I over did it and had the same expierance you mentioned. I must say the treatment fixed the pelvic floor issue, but it took a couple months to get over the new issue. If I start back up with the probe, it will be short sessions for shure!!!
