What is the most uncomfortable enema you have ever had?

When I was 12 years old and had the measles the doctor made a house call and after examining me and determining that I had the measles and hadn't had a bowel movement for several days he gave my Mom a 2 Oz. bottle of white liquid medicinal soap and told her to give me two 1qt. hot soapsuds enemas, one after the other to clear out my bowels using half the bottle of soap in each enema and making me hold them in for 5 minutes . The first enema was hard to hold and gave me bad cramps. It only brought out some small hard lumps. The second enema made me feel sick to my stomach and at one point as I was expelling it I started sweating and feeling weak and almost passed out. To top it off the doctor told her to give me a daily soapsuds enema first thing every morning using whatever soap she normally used, which was Ivory bar soap, until the spots dried up, so I needed up getting 8 soapsuds enemas over the course of a week. He believed that whenever I was too ill to go to school I should be given a daily soapsuds enema to keep my bowels emptied out during the illness so that's what my Mom did. A number of cousins went to the same doctor and got the same treatment when they were ill.

Milk and Molasses hands down. After two hours of cramps and gas and agony I took a clear water rinse and eased my agony. I am not likely to repeat that one.

That routine was common in the fifties. My siblings and I had more or less the same routine when we were growing up and so did our friends. The sick one always got a couple of enemas in the morning then another rinse enema before bed until the illness passed. The ones that weren’t sick got daily enemas at bedtime until the illness passed. This routine continued well into our teenage years when we were responsible for our own enemas.

By far a Barium enema I had about 15 years ago. It was all ok until the Dr. said I do apologize for this and pumped my gut to almost busting pressure. By far one of the most painful experiences I have ever had. Also, I was on the toilet for at least a half hour pooping out the Barium, so much so that the next patient was there and needed to use the bathroom, so they kiked me out and sent me to another bathroom.

I have been given it 3 times and the most uncomfortable Enema has been a M & M Milk and Molasses Enema the strongest and deepest cramps I have ever experienced ever .

It has been a long while since

Dr bonners omg it burns. I could never handle more than a teaspoon full any more than thatI start the enema and right away I got to let it out. 2nd to that is milk and molasses OMG fucking cramps, gas unreal. barium enema i had twice jesus, mary and joseph they pump a LOT of air and it hurts like hell

The most hellish enema in my life was several years ago.

I was constipated quite hard. And, moreover, there was several days business trip, with departure scheduled tonight. 8-9 hours in a car, on a road with weak infrastructure (2 extremely dirty WCs per 400 km). And long meeting right after that.

I was urge for fast cleanout without additional issues in near future.

The enema was 4 liter of hot (40C, ~104F) soapy (80ml of liquid Castile soap) and salt (120mg) water. I take it in a hot shower which was relatively easy for the first 2.5 liters. Than i stopped the flow for couple of minutes and started again with help of inline pump. When bag was empty i was overbloated. It was not painful but very uncomfortable.

Now it still was okayish... But when i start releasing water it flowed like a fountain with short interruptions. My guts was in agony. It was like something owned my insides via large tube covered with sandpaper. It was hard to breath and fever.

After couple of hours i was so clean that next productive defecation was only after several days. But the cramps was with me for about a day.

Wanna use this recipe for hard punishment, but nobody from my play partners deserve something that hard.

A long time ago I was recovering from an upper arm fracture. The pain meds had caused some constipation and the fracture meant I could not hold the bag so I convinced my spouse to give me a soapsuds enema. At that time, we used the Ivory liquid hand soap in the pump bottle. She filled the bag with hot water and a load of Ivory (way too much as it turned out) and started to give me the enema. I could not hold it and only about half of the bag was instilled before I made a run for the toilet. The expulsion was incomplete and the process had to be done over. Again with lots of hot water and soap. This time the whole bag was emptied but not a lot of retaining time. The expulsion was very uncomfortable with a bit of nausea and severe cramps.

Not into painful enemas, but two I experimented with that I found discomforting: 1) a quart and a half of carbonated soda, 2) a two qt bag blown up and capped with air. First cramped and burned, second one cramped and didn’t want to come out.

For me it was the M&M my wife gave me on onxe at my request OMG thought i was going yo die cramps woudnt stop and umlike any thing i ever tried before

Growing up I received a soapsuds enema every Saturday. They were not with an enema bulb but a full 2 quart red bag. My mom could make the most cramping enemas I've ever experienced and I always had to take the full bag regardless of the cramps. I sure would like to know the enema recipe she used.

Mom's nurse friend gave her a double balloon nozzle which my mother started using on me when giving a milk and molasses enema. I would lie on my left side and she would slowly insert the lubricated nozzle attached to a small bulb syringe and slowly squeeze the warm enema into my rectum. I could feel the bulb against my anus as the nozzle was fully inserted. Then the balloon nozzle was inserted and I felt one balloon inflated inside the rectum and the other outside my anus. She would set the timer to thirty minutes and leave. The enema plus the inside balloon caused me to have an erection. I would hear my stomach gurgling from time to time as the gas caused by the enema traveled up my colon. After about twenty minutes I would start to feel an urge to go but I couldn't because of the balloon inside. I would masturbate as the cramps and urge to go increased. Mom showed me that the enema was supposed to be retained for thirty minutes according to a book on medicine she had. The final ten minutes were very uncomfortable as the gas in my rectum would cause a strong urge to go until it gurgled up into my colon briefly giving me a respite followed by more cramps and stronger urge to go. I would try to cum as close to the time the timer rang as I could. I began to enjoy the painful pleasure this enema produced.

Vinegar in water enema.. Too much vinegar. Thought I was going to die and never will do that again.

@itsameah Did that the 1st time I tried it, didn't get much in and it wanted to come out. Did a couple more later and was careful not to add to much. Liked the tingle but haven't done them in years.

For me the most uncomfortable enema I ever had was a Barium enema for UC and IBSC. They really should go by your size and height I'm 5'2 and 120 lbs at the time of the test back in the 90's. But they filled me up till I thought I was going to pop, and had me moving into different positions on a cold X-Ray table. The test kind of brought back all my childhood memories of my Mother giving me enemas twice a week when I was younger and the fights I put up at that time.

For the most part, I've never met an enema that I haven't liked.

What about uncomfortable enemas? I've met a few of those, but I can't say I entirely disliked them.

I've always been a curious person and I like to experiment and try new things.

Once, I thought it might be fun or at least exhilarating to first inject a little baking soda water followed by some vinegar. It was indeed exhilarating, to say the least. It produced a plethora of gas, as was to be expected, but it was much more than my bowels were designed to contain so I had to deal with quite a bit of bloating pain. I managed to explosively pass approximately 51.6988 percent of the gas within a few seconds, and, yes, the resultant rumbling rattled the windows and caused the chandelier to sway. I had a boatload of cramps while the remaining 48.3012 percent of the gas took its sweet time working its way back down to the rectum to be expelled over the next hour.

Another time, I put a tad bit too much soap in my three-quart enema. I was curious to see what cramps from an enema really felt like. I had never experienced much in the way of cramps with an enema because I had always used just plain water. So, I poured in triple the recommended amount of Dr. Bronner's Peppermint Soap to make sure I would feel a few cramps--I mean, more is better, right? Needless to say, I got a quick and fairly brutal lesson in enema cramps. Now, I use just the prescribed amount of soap, and I generally use Johnson's Baby Shampoo which is very mild and nice.

Even counting my two uncomfortable enemas, I can still say I've never met an enema that I haven't liked. I mean, I didn't love them, but I still liked the learning and the experience. However, once is enough on some things--I won't be doing those two again.

Several years ago I had surgery for hemorrhoids and was given a Fleet enema prior to the surgery. The nurse that administered it told me she hadn't slept well the night before. That became obvious as she missed the target and stuck the tip against one of the bulging veins. I instinctively moved away because of the pain while she began to squeeze the bottle and some of the contents leaked unto the bed sheets. The fleet didn't work because the bedding got more of the solution than I did. She was very apologetic and offered to give me another but I declined . First time in my life I turned down an enema.

The nurse obviously didn't know about the painless and preferred way to insert the nozzle when giving an enema. The nurse must properly prepare the posterior hole prior to pushing in the nozzle (nice alliteration, no?). Prior to inserting the nozzle, the nurse should insert a well-lubricated finger into the anus. The finger can gently find the oriface because it can "feel" the area and find the hole before applying too much pressure. The finger manipulation relaxes and opens up the anus so the nozzle can easily make its way into the open hole and not into a sensitive, throbbing vein.

Of course, if the hospital found out that the nurse was using this improved method for giving an enema, she or he would have been fired, but how would the hospital find out? I'd never tell!

P. S. to @ronniewater. Sorry, about the hemorrhoidectomy. I had a hemorrhoidectomy many years ago and it was the most painful recovery out of my now 26 surgeries, mostly because after a day of healing, the next bowl movement, without mercy, rips out half the healing from the previous 24 hours in a most excrutiating manner. many years ago and it was the most painful recovery out of my then seven and now 26 surgeries, mostly because after a day of healing, the next bowl movement, without mercy, ripped out half the healing from the previous 24 hours in a most excruciating and unkind manner.

P. P. S. I'm disappointed that in all my 26 surgeries, including the hemorrhoidectomy and an inguinal hernia, not once did I get an enema before or after the surgery. My first surgery was in 1980.

Hi, for me it was J&J Baby Shampoo !

Headache from hell after a 2x litre bag.

NEVER again.

I ass ume it was the Anesthetic in the solution...

I was aware that it contained Local Anesthetic (to stop eye irritation) butt didn't think there was a lot, wrong..

Too much soap and felt awful for 2 days. I did it to myself. Wish I hadn't

@waterworld2 Possably you used too much J&J. For me J&J is a very mild enema solution with no side effects. Although I realize everyone's system is different.

...many years ago I tried the M&M-Enema - NEVER EVER - It was the worst mistake I could ever have made.

There is nothing I would classify as a local anesthetic in J&J Baby Shampoo.

I don't like large volumes of water, especially for my first enema, it causes me quite a lot of pain. I'm horrified when I hear people getting more than 2 liters of water into themselves.

- for sure, it is not the quantity, more than the quality of the solution, that was prepared !!

I would have to say, the 3H enema my grandmother gave me the summer I turned nine. Up until that point, my siblings and I normally received a one-quart enema. However, the 3H enema I received that summer afternoon, was two quarts for both the soapy and rinse phase of the 3H enema. Using a 24 inch colon tube for both parts fully inserted in my colon. That was by far, the roughest enema I ever received. Afterwards, the following evening at bath time, grandma had our teenage aunts give my siblings and I a daily quart and a half rinse enema using a long-curved douche nozzle for a week.

@Rick6981 Wow, i thought we had an enema culture, and really did, but not like your place!

That says it for sure, "We are water butts,, Girls see to it." 😘 Oh my! 😋

At our place, a good ways back off the road, 1/3 mile, and behind a barn, was our wind-mill pump and water tank for the cows. My memory goes back to the late 1940s, No phone. Visitors on horse would show up and whistle, setting off the dogs. Automobile, set the dogs off already, but they would blow their horn or Ahh-Oooo-Gahhhh, similar to Sireen, but distinctively noisier!

Summer time, we bathed back there. As dad had his guts spilled in WW-2, should have died but amazingly lived against all odds, he usually took cold enema too, in the process. Having drinks of beer, or whatever it was, he was known to get louder than the dogs. Us, sensing the fun, stuck our butts out asking for some too. Used to have a black n white photo of him with a heavily bigged belly and mom's D cup brazier strapped on. (it was quite a while before we figured out the drink connection) We even had party squirt contests, as things progressed. 🤣 The tank was 4 foot high cement rectangle that seemed real long, but was only 4 X 10 foot. Our ducks never got in it. But would run and get splashed when a cow pee-ed. Dad prized duck eggs.

My most un-comfortable enema comes when i start playing with 9/16 thick colon tube. Getting bigged, sometimes i want to see how far i can get it to go in, passing over the top of my belly button is a goal. It is a struggle, but having lots of J-lube squirted in there helps. Caution must be observed to keep it going forward and not doubling back. The 9/16 silicone hose is more discoverable when feeling around with finger tips, and is less likely to fold back, but sometimes it tries. So both hands are entertained. Usually my right works it up, while my left is happy feeling for it under the skin, a definite learning curve that never gets old. Another tuffy comes when i want to deliver coffee into the transverse colon. That definitely takes practice.

3.5 quarts of water is my limit. I have probably never exceeded that more than 3 times in the last 20 years, none before that and probably never more than 3-1/2 ever again, as 3 quarts is really a little past plenty anyway. I measure my volume by weight on bath scales, which can get tricky too. 🫤

Anyone handy with a small lathe,, we could use some Delrin (Polyoxymethylene, POM) terminal buttons for 9/16 od silicone hoses, (with kind of a petite mushroom shape) stem 3/8 inch X 1/2 long and cap 9/16.

My grandmother was a retired Registered Nurse and a firm believer in enemas for kids, teenagers, and adults. On top of that, when doctors of the era (circa nineteen fifties) made a house call for someone sick in bed. Nine times out of ten, a daily enema was prescribed for the duration of the illness. Enemas were commonplace and a part of daily life, being used for a variety of different issues.

@Rick6981 . I've read your many postings on Grandma teaching your teenage aunts to give you and your sibling(s) enemas. You mentioned in a previous post that the frequent enema ritual was part of teaching hygiene (health education). Whether intentional or not, it sounds like grandma was providing some sex education as well.

My grandmother taught moms two younger sisters personal hygiene as preteens along with how to care for and give children enemas. Doing so, to give them practical experience taking care of children under her supervision. At the time, I was six years old, and the older of the girls twelve and her sister eleven. We learned a lot from them. Just like, they learned a good bit from us. An in a lot of respects, the girls were more like older siblings than aunts.
