Modern Doctors and Enemas

I recently encountered a young doctor,perhaps in his 30s, who seemed to think a warm water enema was as invasive as a heart transplant. At least he acted that way.

Has anyone else encountered such an ignorant idiot?

There are lots of ignorant idiots out there. He sperms to fit the bill. That’s an extreme comparison

I heard from some doctors even smalls enemas can “destroy the balance of bacteria in the colon with terrible consequences“ and should be avoid. that‘s what I usually listen when I need to discuss about anal sex

Wish our medical expert who loves enemas were here to comment on this.

Unfortunately modern medicine thinks that way.

They still do use them for constipation relief in hospitals. Not for other medicinal cures other than procedural preps. For most people -as evidenced with our healthy enema enthusiasts here - there seldom is little any of disrupting your colon bacterial flora.

With regard to disrupting colon balance, a warm water enema is trivial compared to many antibiotics doctors hand out like M&Ms. Last summer I was given an antibiotic for a UTI. After a few days the runs started and got worse during the resat of the course. I took Florrestore to no effect and went through several 200 pill bottles of Imodium. The runs lasted nearly 6 months.

@Sean sounds like C-Diff following antibiotics killing off all the flora. That’s hard to get rid of as it keeps coming back. Takes awhile for the normal flora to reestablish.

@gwhap

That's certainly possible. I did have C Diff some years before and such things never really go away fully. Antibiotics are a mixed blessing.

Modern doctors prefer to prescribe pills or small enemas like microlax.

Just playing the cynic here. Nobody makes any money from home enemas. Well, other than Chinese silicone molding outfits anyway. Doctors can't control them and pharma makes nothing. As I said elsewhere on this, follow the money.

C. B. Fleet, Inc advertises as a Prestige Consumer Healthcare company. They make money from enemas and suppositories. Many other manufactures put their label on enema related products, Walgreens, Vedco, CVS,…………..
