How do you keep from being sore?

Hello all. First post here.

I have experimented with enemas over the years and my mind always thinks one thing should happen but then something different does.

Here is what I mean. I decided to do a full enema one day because I wanted anal sex that night. So I figured I would clean out everything in hopes that I would be ready as the day went on.

Well, it wound up being that I spent the next few hours emptying out and by the time I was actually done, I was so sore that there was NO WAY I was going to have anyone back there.

So is there a way to stop the soreness of having so much water being expelled over time? Maybe I am doing it wrong?

There are two things I'd recommend to help alleviate your problem. Since it is the lower colon you are trying to clear and clean, I'd suggest using a smaller enema with a stronger purgative like castille soap. After your first elimination, smear your anus with petroleum jelly. This will sooth any potential burn from additional evacuations. You should then be able to accommodate the evenings finale with less discomfort.

I guess some anuses aremore sensitive than others. Use lots of Vaseline. That usually coats the inner membranes sufficiently to prevent that burning sensation.

The biggest problem is WIPING too hard and too much. BLOT instead. Also wash with water after expelling and BLOT. Vaseline can help some people when used as a lube.

I make sure to use lots of vaseline, each time I have an enema

I haven't read the replies, but I always just jump over into the tub (right next to the toilet) and just wash off.

Wiping too hard of the anus is the reason for the soreness.Here's what I do to solve the problem.Always lube the anus area after each expelling.When wiping,avoid wiping anus directly,instend,wipe around the anus then lightly pat the anus itself.Then lube with Ky or a hemorrhoidal cream.

Expelling the enema in most cases does'nt cause irritation or soreness,but wiping does.Let the good times flow.w/m73yrs/Western Ma

It has been my experience that being careless about cleanliness and/or not drying properly after washing can cause soreness. Most of the time it goes away by itself within a day. My mother always used zinc oxide ointment on us when we were kids if we complained of a sore butt. That stuff works like a charm and I still use it today when needed. Not quite as greasy as Vaseline.

Another thing, don't push too hard when trying to expel. That aggravates your hemorrhoids. Also, a good body lotion after cleaning up always helps. You tend to dry out your bottom with repeated trips to the toilet.

I have had no problems at all since I started using Burt's Bees hand salve as lube---go ahead laugh---it works---

Yes, the anus can be quite tender after one (or more) enemas. The method we use is: after each enema, do not begin cleaning until you have expelled for the last time. First, gently wipe the area around the anus with a soft cloth (or soft tissue) until dry. Then, gently pat your anus dry. If someone else is willing to 'clean' you, so much the better.

I keep a nice warm wet cloth and use it to pat dry. Makes things even nicer

Try using a handheld shower sprayer and wash off thoroughly with warm water after each expulsion. Then pat dry with a towel. You won't have the friction from repeated wipings with toilet paper. Also make sure the tube or nozzle is relubricated each time you insert it up the receiver's rectum. It's always better to use too much K-Y that to not have quite enough.

A lot of soreness can be eliminated for multiple enemas if a colonic set up is used. You expell thru the larger tube therby saving the anus the "work" of having gallons of water flow thru it.

A little Preparation-H works wonders and also Neosporin ointment on any possible anal fissures. Keep it as external as possible.

Well folk, I have a rash in me arse and will be seeing the Dr today about it. It started when I bought a bottle of Castile Soap from Trader Joe's....instead of Dr. Bonners. It was a lot cheaper.

Well, it burned me little bum and it took way too long to wise up. Tried PrepH and Neosporin...this has been going on for over a month. My 'visitning nurse' has insisted that I see the Dr since it isn't responding to anything. (I did get rid of it and went back to Dr. Bonners...but still a problem.) The nurse thinks it is a 'yeast infection'. I'll keep you informed.

I don't even wipe .. I just use water flow to clean up when I'm done. Definitely feels a lot better!

Preparation H is what works best for me...

Use soft toilet tissue or washcloth and blot, don't wipe or rub. It's the shearing on the mucous membranes that really causes damage.

If i am doing a series of enemas i'll blot instead of wipe and use a soft cloth. Then i will rub some good quality body lotion in between my cheeks to keep them moisturized. That works wonders for me.

Is the soreness external or internal. I have a silicone colon tube that always seem to be squeaky no mater what lube you use. If it is one of those days and I have to do allot of in and out to get the tube into me, my anus get sore around the inside. It is always a compromise between the tube sliding in easy and being able to hold the tube to insert it. I find Crisco to work the best. Water based lube are gone as soon at they see water, using oil is too messy and if you use to much beware of farts afterwards and Vaseline liquefies too much from body heat. I sometimes think I should find some kind of glove to help grip the slippery tube. Anybody have the silicone colon tube thing worked out.

By soreness, do you mean irritation of the anus. Wipe less.

If you mean the slight tummy ache that you get after about 3 or 4 rounds, I've never really found a solution to that either!

You sound like an absolute dream. I hope your boyfriend realizes what he has.

I have found that if I use vaseline it stays on the nozzle and my butt longer, eliminating the need for constant applications. Also, I simply pat dry instead of wiping. And yes, preparation H is wonderful.

I have always found that K-Y jelly very irritation yo my anus, But that it the only one that dose. I have used quite a few lubricants and none of them do that to me. So I would snuggest trying a different water base lubricant to see if that helps

Wipe a lot less. After the 1st wipe, apply generous amount of vaseline in the tissue and rub around on the anus. Reapply every so often.

To avoid soreness and trouble with hemmorhoids, I use water to wet the anus after expelling and gently tuck and moisten dry tissue. It works for me.
