Gas - Post Enema ?

This might sound incredibly ignorant, but is post-enema gas an issue? Are there any hazards with taking gas-ex or something to prevent it? I have a fantasy I'd like to initiate, but I want to be prepared for what I think may be an issue for me.

Gas is sometimes a bi product of an enema. just let nature take care of it of lay down on your right side and the gas will work out easier

Gas can be painful after surgery. Mt wife gave me 3 or 4 enemas the week after I was home after surgery. I layed on a towel and rubber sheet on the bathroom floor. She used her yellow folding douche bag with the enema nozzle. She made me take two qts. and hold it as long as possible. Since the nozzle was little she held it in place while the water flowed. During one enema I got an erection. She said nothing, just reached down and rubbed the tip until I came. She cleaned me up with a warm wash cloth, gave me a kiss, and said that was my reward for bring good about having to take so many nasty enemas. She learned how to give enemas from her mom a R.N. I never told her how much I enjoyed the terrable enemas. I just try to be constipated as often as possible. We blame it on a lazy bowel

Gas after an enema, especially a series of larger enemas can cause gas. It will work itself out and it isn't a problem. There is generally little if any smell since there isn't any feces, and the only problem might be other's hearing your butt humming! 😁

One thing that used to be used to help with gas was called I believe a "Harris Flush".

An enema was administered to a patient in the Sims position, and then while leaving the nozzle in place, the bag is lowered to below the level of the patient, and allowed to backflow into the bag. Then the bag can be raised again and the procedure is repeated a few times. During the "backflow" part of it, gas will move from the bowel into the bag, providing some relief.

Another one was to use a "Flatus Tube" which was a colon tube inserted into the rectum, with the outside of the tube placed into a basin of water that was lower than the level of the patient. this enabled the gas to "vent off".

Like most medical enemas, I don't think either method is used much anymore.

Switchablesusie, I just wanted to say that I appreciate all the information you have posted. I'm learning.

My mother had her gall bladder out in the early 60s. She and a family talked about there enemas while in the hospital. They both agreed the Harris Flush was the best. My guess it was there favorite.

I sometimes think I have gas after an enema and it's enema water leftovers. As soon as I fart I know the difference. WHAT A MESS.

Any solution that has sugar add like molasses or honey or even any serup will cause gas build up and it can be washed out with a few plain water enemas witch should help with your gas problems

Gas is in your intestine before. Gas is the reason You get cramps when tryieng to give yourself a larger volume enema.

Because of gas, lots of poeple go to their doktor complaining of Pain in their upper region of their belly.

Only on Your knees with Your bottom up, it will escape, therefor giving yourself an enema in the knee-chest position allows the water to pass by the gas and reach the upper colon.

Sometimes it is good to give Yourself a smaller enema and hold till it really churns in Your belly, than release it mostly with a burst of gas following. After the gas is partially eliminated you may proceed with a larger enema. Preferably in your bathtub with a rubbery cushion under Your behind to have this elevated. If You are halfway clean inside you may consider to expell in this position and will be surprized how much gas will still come out with the water. But after the enema their should not be any of it left in you.

^^^^^ Gas may be in your colon beforehand, but for many, an enema also results in gas production the lasts for varying periods of time during the day. This is related to the changes in colon contents and changes in the proportions of different types of colonic bacteria that remain.

I eat a lot of fruit and veggies,my doc told me my gas problem caused by my diet.However,after two enemas the gas is gone.

Yes, the gas presently in your colon is gone, but it comes back. The enema only temporarily clears it out.

Gas may be there and it might not be. You can have cramps with or without gas, although the pains are usually sharper with gas.

There is a device that can be purchased from Beth Tyler called a Flatus Release device that you put in the rectum prior to enemas to let the gas out. My wife and I have used this tool on occasion to get gas out before giving an enema because if you don't get that air out, then you will have bad cramps and feel full without taking any water, which will ruin your sexy enema session.

If gas becomes a major problem, check out under-tec.com for underwear with built in fart filters.

After having a colonic or enema I usually have to pass what seems to be aninordinate abount of gas. It will sometimes cramp, but usually just passes out without pain or discomfort.

One problem with gas, is that , of course it tends to float up as high as possible in the colon and so does not come out well unless you stand on your head!

Passing a colon tube can be effective, massage of the belly, hot water bottles and patience all useful as can a further soapy enema which I think causes more contractions and helps expel

Gas is a natural product of the flora in your colon that builds up pressure and causes fecal movement so you can poop. Massaging the belly during enemas helps the water to move the gas and fecal matter. Breathing helps to reduce the pain. As much as possible I try to retain an enema as long as possible until the gas cramps calm down. The amount of volume and discomfort you encounter depends a lot on previous bowel movemnts.

You could also try to relieve yourself of some of the existing gas by using one of those flatus release devices, or a rectal dialator that has a hole in the tip. Just insert that for a bit before your enema. Also, make sure there is no air in the hose or the shaft of the nozzle before you start. No sense adding extra air to the existing gas.

Another suggestion is try to avoid bulb enemas. Since it is quite easy to get air injected when you reach the end of it. You have to be careful with those and also you always have to refill them all the time etc.. Better with a bad or something.. Also add some salt in the water to help minimize cramps. Also make sure temperature is not too cold or hot.
