"High Volume" Glycerin Enema

I've been doing 2 oz. 50/50 glycerin/water enemas and am looking for ways to move the solution higher up in the colon.

Has anyone ever injected a small volume glycerin/water enema and then taken a higher volume say 500 ml clear water enema to push the glycerin higher up in the colon?

I tried a smaller volume 150 ml syringe of clear water and it seemed to move the cramps higher up and made them longer lasting.

You can try colon tube.

But simple to dissolve glycerine in high amount (1-2L) of water and do high enema.

In several prior posts I've suggested that small volume glycerin enemas should be given high into the recipient's colon, using either a bulb or piston syringe, with a colon tube, about Fr 22 red rubber, inserted about 10 inches. If a small glycerin enema is given with a conventional applicator, the purgative action really only empties the recipients rectum. But, given high, preferably with the recipient in the knee-chest position, and retained until it really works and the urge to expel is intense, a bowel clearing poo usually results. It only takes about 2 Oz or 50ml to be fully effective.

I have added about 4 oz glycerin to a 4QT bag with some JJ in it and got a really nice clean out with a colon tube.

I have allowed 300 ml of pure vegetable glycerin to flow into me above a large inflated double balloon nozzle inserted in my rectum followed by 2700 ml of warm water. The 300 ml was sufficient overflow the top of my rectum and flow “down” my Sigmoid colon before the water was introduced. As the warm water flowed down the tube behind the glycerin, it was not only pushing the bulk of the remaining glycerin out of the tubing, it was also mixing with the glycerin that was clinging to the walls of the tubing. Upon reaching my rectum, I imagine the water both “pushed” and mixed with the glycerin to produce a variable concentration that had a bulk concentration of 10%. The 3.0 liters was sufficient to enter and fill my transverse colon.

The double balloon did its job and held the enema in. That much pure glycerin had two effects. First, it stimulated very intense contractions both in my transverse colon and most of all in the descending colon to the point of nausea. Although I never vomited, I came very close with a certain amount of heaves. I had a plastic trash can in front of me, just in case.

The second thing was totally unexpected. It sensitized my colon and rectum in a way where there was this constant tingle and extreme sensitivity to the pressure of the nozzle and the enema. I cannot be sure but it could have been the spasmatic contractions of the muscles of the lower colon and rectum. As a result of that my rectum and perhaps my Sigmoid (or a good portion of it) “closed down” as in clamped down. It was a self-sealing enema. It did feel like a “cramp” or a seized muscle like a “charlie horse” of the rectum. Try as I might, I could neither expel or even insert a small nozzle with a hose to give the enema a path out. I was sweating as my body (as indicated by the elevated heart rate) tried to relieve itself. In the meantime, the upper end of my colon was churning away trying to force the enema out with no real path.

Finally, after 15-20 minutes, I was able to insert my smallest diameter nozzle part way up my rectum. It didn't allow a pathway out, but it did provide a way to irrigate my rectum to slowly wash and dilute the glycerin that had coated my rectum. A little time later, I could get the nozzle in to the point that I would supply a little more warm water and get my rectum to relax. Finally, a path opened and the enema began to flow out. it was a well-dissolved sludgy expulsion by this point. It was tough to take a rinse enema and I allowed my rectum and colon a little while to recover and relax.

I finally got a small diameter but longer nozzle into me and flushed out the enema. The last enema I fed into me was a baking soda enema that had the desired relaxing effect. I was very cleaned out by that time and my abdomen muscles were quite tired.

I tried a small extension tubing on the syringe and was able to get the glycerin a little higher into the colon.

This delayed the cramps and urge to expel and moved the cramps higher up into the colon.

Any recommendations as to a good closed end colon tube?

It's very difficult to get a tube high up into the colon and I would like to go in about 10 inches with the glycerin.

My reference for a colon tube for small volume enemas, like glycerin or 1-2-3, is a red rubber catheter, about Fr22 or Fr24. These are sold as urinary catheters by many suppliers for about $2 each. You want to use a size that's not so small that they kink or loop back, but not a size that's so big that most of the enema solution does not go into you but stays in the catheter.

When inserting them, you should try and insert it between the bowel wall and the poo. If you insert the catheter into a lump of poo it won't go up high where you want it to go. To do this, insert at an angle into your rectum. Of course, lavish lubrication helps a lot. NEVER use force during insertion.

I use a Fr24 and a 60ml catheter tip piston syringe for glycerin enemas. A syringe full, given with the tube up 10 to 15 inches, results in a very complete, impossible to resist, poo within 15 minutes

Get one of the disposable bags or buckets, the tubes are @24fr and very smooth pliable material. I can always insert one 15 to 20 inches with a small amount of lube, they always insert very easy compared to my big fancy tubes, especially if you're in a hurry..

Get two disposables cut one tube off connect together for extra length works like a charm

Those disposable bags come with a funnel shaped adapter on each end.

If you remove the fitting isn't just a square cut piece of tubing with sharp edges?

I would think the square edge might not be as easy as a smooth rounded, closed end catheter?

Interesting. The few I have seen have had the bag end heat-welded in to the bag and the “butt end” has a rounded tapered part and then a side eye in it about an inch and a half in.

Found some 22 FR closed end catheters. Injected 4 ounces of 50/50 glycerin/water about 10 inches up into my colon and the result was wonderful.

Didn't start to react right away but I could feel the contractions higher up in my colon.

After 5 minutes I could not hold on and the release was from higher up in the colon, not just the rectum.

Resulted in a very good evacuation followed by several deep colon rinses…

You did it correctly. That's the way to give a small volume glycerin enema as I've written elsewhere, and, given that way, you can expect a bowel clearing poo within 15 minutes or so. The longer the enema is held, the more potent the effect.

The rinse is not really needed if you poo a lot, because doing so should sweep out the glycerin. However, the rinse may reduce additional poos in later hours.

Now this was an interesting read…. hadn't thought about it before until reading this thread

The bags being used for enemas with the hard plastic tapered tips are most likely Kangaroo feeding bag kits pressed into enema service. The tubing diameter is also usually about half that of the regular large volume disposable enema set tube. If it is the reduced size tube it will be difficult to avoid curling up when inserted. A dual bag set can be seen at this link: https://www.google.com/search?q=kangaroo+feeding+bags&sxsrf=AOaemvLLGxANuQnFBeDnwoLoCIE8D3gDrw%3A1630874232299&ei=eCo1YYTLEabl5NoPhb6SCA&oq=kangaroo+feeding+bags&gs_lcp=Cgdnd3Mtd2l6EAMyBQgAEIAEMggIABCABBDJAzIFCAAQgAQyBQgAEIAEMgYIABAWEB4yBggAEBYQHjIGCAAQFhAeMgYIABAWEB4yBggAEBYQHjIGCAAQFhAeOgcIABBHELADOg0ILhDHARCvARAnEJMCOgQIIxAnOgUIABCRAjoICC4QgAQQsQM6DgguEIAEELEDEMcBEKMCOgsILhCABBDHARCvAToICC4QsQMQgwE6CwguEIAEEMcBEKMCOgQIABBDOgsILhDHARDRAxCRAjoHCC4QsQMQQzoICAAQgAQQsQM6BwgAELEDEEM6CgguELEDEIMBEEM6DQguELEDEIMBEEMQkwI6BQguEIAEOgsILhCxAxDHARCvAToLCC4QgAQQsQMQkwI6CggAEIAEEIcCEBQ6BwgAEIAEEAo6BQgAEIYDSgQIQRgAUI64Qlj7-EJgjJVDaAFwAngAgAFjiAHsC5IBAjIxmAEAoAEByAEIwAEB&sclient=gws-wiz&ved=0ahUKEwiE56f61-jyAhWmMlkFHQWfBAEQ4dUDCA4&uact=5

If the bag is using clear PVC tubing, there are two ways to cut the tubing and obtain a rounded tip. One is to simply shear the tubing and then heat the end of the cut tube to soften it. Once the vinyl softens due to the heat it will round off leaving a smooth rounded tip. You can use an alcohol burner as the heat source or the more safe alternative, a heat gun. They are inexpensive, around $15.00 by mail. Ignore ads promoting $100.00 units, the low cost heat gun units work just as well. Keep in mind that even the heat gun blows air which will produce 3rd degree burns so be careful.

Another method to separate the tubing is to heat the point where you want to separate the tube with the heat source. Once the plastic softens to a very pliable state pull the tubing apart. Once separated and away from the heat source, both vinyl tubing ends will round off forming a smooth open end. You will need to roll the tubing in the heat source so the tubing is uniformly heated around the tubing circumference for this to work. Watch the tubing while heating and you will see a subtle change in the light from the heated tubing indicating the vinyl is changing state.

If you need a bulb style tip to aid in retention of the tubing, you can heat about two to three inches of the tubing at the tip end. As the plastic warms it shrinks longitudinally and bulges outward at the end of the tube. Saran Wrap, the clear plastic food wrap is essentially the same plastic and when used to cover a bowl, applying heat will shrink the plastic tight leaving a drum like surface.

Please allow the tubing to cool adequately before using.

While the Kangaroo bags look like an enema bag, they are different. First off the lumen (inside diameter) of the tubing is generally smaller and the tubing is fitted with a conical catheter tip catheter, like some piston syringes, rather than the tip being rounded with aside eye, as for use as an enema nozzle.

Actually, if you are giving the enema with a standard catheter (there is essentially no difference between a catheter and a colon tube of the same french number), or better with a Foley catheter, a Kangaroo bag works very well as an enema bag, as is. A30cc Foley works well as a retention aid.
