Lubricated finger inserted before enema?

Professionally, as a Colon Hydro Therapist and a Medical Assistant, I will always lube my finger and give a rectal exam before inserting anything into anyone's rectum.

#1. It will lubricate the rectum.

#2. I also want to make the rectum is clear or want to know if there is any impaction or internal growths, hemorroids, so when the finger, nozzle, suppository or speculum will meet with any resistance.

#3. Inserting the lubed finger also gives me an indication of how patient may react to the treatment, procedure or exam.

If you do not lube well it could be like landing a 747 on a runway too short or one that already has a plane on that runway.

And when I am with a female and we do anything anal she will receive a very well lubed finger in her ass several times. If you do anal let's just say it is better to give a lot of lubrication. Why make it difficult?

Love to linger on this part of the enema. Definitely prepares you for whats to come!

How about a well-lubed finger inserted AFTER the enema? Inserted and removed slowly and deliberately, lingering on the outside, almost imperceptibly moving for quite an extended time. Or perhaps probing deeply, pushing the limits strongly, searching every nook and cranny for any response. Sensing a reaction, and then repeatedly pushing and prodding the swelling until there is no more.

When giving enemas I might insert lubed finger and might not. While at my work that could be looked as unnecessary step, but when giving at home be it for medical or play/sexual reasons then I tend to lube anus as well as nozzle. Sometimes it is quit easy to see that person likes a bit of anal play, so finger would make them more relaxed and more receptive...

I love being stretched out and they lubricate me in and out of my hole with Vaseline, slow and long massage before starting the enema.

Always a lubed finger inserted before enema. Make sure you are nice and lubed for easy insertion and less pain.

"Vicki, take a deep breath and let it out slowly. You're going to feel my finger inside you. The lubricant will feel cold. This will take only a few seconds." This may not be the nurse's exact words, but it's close. Angie did a quick digital rectal to prep me for an enema. I felt her gloved finger slipping inside me, much like getting a suppository. She slipped off her glove and put on another before she started the enema. I'd had a DRE at my gynecologist before I got married, but this was a new experience with an enema bag hanging above my bed and a tube the nurse was preparing to put up my behind. More than 35 years later, I still remember it.

100% yes! Like others have posted on this thread, it adds to the excitement. Of course - given my profile name - it needs to be a gloved finger 😃

Yes, a lubed finger should always first be inserted into the rectum to both inspect for any potential blockages and to lubricate the rectal walls in preparation for the enema nozzle Insertion. The patient will both enjoy and be embarrassed by the digital penetration prior to their enema.

Always; from an administrator and receiver.

It's very difficult to put the nozzle in to the anus. I got the nexus douche pro seems like one of the biggest mistake the noozle seems to be too big.

Usually I will poop before I douche myself.

When giving an enema to someone, it is relaxing, sensual, maybe a little humiliating (in a fun sort of way) to finger the rosebud first. Recommend two fingers vs one as being more erotic.

I never received an enema at home, only in medical settings and all as an inpatient in a hospital. I can count at least 8 separate enemas over the course of about 20 years given by different individuals and in different hospitals and not once was the enema preceded by me being penetrated by a finger. Standard practices may vary by country and time period, but where and when I received mine, it was simply not done. This was before retention nozzles were used routinely, and so all of the tips and nozzles where white thin and there was no need for more lubricant than what was already on the nozzle/tip. I can not recall every reading a medical textbook for nurses that advised that this be done either. My mother was a nurse and we had a long shelve of nursing textbooks that I eagerly devoured.

Likewise the idea of inserting a finger to lubricate before a rectal thermometer strikes me as odd and putting the “cart before the horse”. It would make more sense to prelubricate the anus and rectum with a skinny thermometer before a much thicker finger of a rectal exam. Sorry to be a buzzkill. Fantasy and play are of course very different situations.

Always lots of lube inserted before anything else goes in.

“You’re going to feel my finger inside you. Take a deep breath and let it out slowly.” I went through a time in my 30s when I was going to a colon hydrotherapist. She always did a digital exam with a gloved finger before she inserted the speculum. It felt like getting a suppository. Not the most lady-like of procedures, but I accepted it as necessary. That was easy compared to the speculum, which I really felt.

My experience is you are more likely to have a colon hydrotherapist digitally check you for obstruction if they are using a closed system vs an open system - I suspect because the speculum is so much bigger. I've had it with and without a digital inspection on a closed system. Don't remember if ever on an open system, usually there they have you insert the speculum.

My treatments were from a closed system. I felt the cleanses were more thorough, although the speculum got some getting used to. I also wanted to have the therapist with me for massage and support. There were times when I was uncomfortable, and she helped me through those. Definitely unlike the gentle enemas that a nurse taught me to do at home when I was constipated.

@gwhap

The reason is obvious:

With a closed system, a lump of poo low down, which is what the therapist is mostly checking for, can easily clog the speculum and cause a major flood of soiled water all over the table. When a colon full of water wants out, it's going to come out no matter what.

That can't happen on an open system since you normally poo freely into the slot toilet.

My treatments were from a closed system. I felt the cleanses were more thorough, although the speculum got some getting used to. I also wanted to have the therapist with me for massage and support.

@Vicki_V I prefer a closed system as well but in our small town the only therapist has an open system. She does stay in the room for the entire session and massages the colon/belly.

@Sean Thanks!

Sometimes ‘ yes ’ and sometimes ‘ no ’ both of which were left to my mother's discretion . Seems the not un-welcomed ‘ finger ’ was administered more often as I matured . My mom had ‘ long , ’ willowy ‘ , ’ piano player ‘ type ’ lady fingers ‘ ‘ so her digital rectal insertion as to a ’ pre-enema lower colon lubrication ’ was not an unpleasant sensation / activity especially for me as a young male .

I Had an enema years ago because I was having a proctoscope! Then one in 1984 before giving birth! I don’t know what is a turn on about an enema! I would think my husband had lost his mind if he said he was going to give me a enema!

Oh yes. It was the rule not the exception. Always before the enema My uncle's thick Vaseline finger (not easy to take) would always be fully inserted and then slid in and out several times.

I have given enemas and I grease the tubing up and whatever position they get in I do put KY jelly on their butthole and stick my finger up a little ways. I grease the tubing and ram it up their butt and I go a long ways up their ass before I unclamp it! Some people can’t hold it and we have put a tube down their nose and pour the laxative down it and they are crapping in 10 minutes! That’s usually nursing home patients that squirt it back out and you are wasting your time! Pour it down a peg tube or NG tube! Poor little people crap all night!

You probably aren't anally inclined. For some having the tube in and a wand on the front can be very very stimulating and a hard orgasm.

I've had a lubed, gloved finger inserted prior to a closed system colonic some years ago I think the therapist was feeling primarily for hemmies or some deformities, but also to see if my lower end was full of poo, and whether it was hard or soft. On the occasion, because I was traveling and away from home, I was somewhat constipated and my bottom end was pretty packed. She commented that ‘I was pretty full down there’ and suggested a ‘starter enema’ ‘to make the colonic session go easier" and I agreed. She prepared a disposable bag full of very warm, soapy water which was running into me shortly thereafter. Luckily, there was a toilet very close to the treatment table, and I soon needed it urgently. After a thorough poo, I got onto the table, the speculum went in, and the colonic got started.

Absolutely yes. My mom always lubed my butt with a large dollop of Vaseline, going deep and rubbing all around. It felt so good that it is standard procedure since. Never used a glove as the feeling of a rectal wall is amazing.

I hardly ever insert my finger prior to an enema. It just isn't something I was taught by my sub. He isn't that interested in having it done is my guess. Though he may like it. With a glove on he might be nicely surprised.

I’ve posted about moms finger insertions prior to an enema previously. However, after school was out for the summer, my siblings an I spent four to six weeks at our grandmothers. Like mom, grandma always inserted her Vaseline covered finger into our anus, moving it back and forth with a twisting motion for twenty or thirty seconds, before replacing it with the enema nozzle. As preteens, once grandma taught us personal hygiene, we gave each other enemas after school a couple of times a week and my brother, sister, an I did likewise. I always looked forward to the finger lube because it felt so good. Between mom, grandma, sister, girlfriends, and ex-wife, my sister gave the best finger job before inserting the nozzle than anyone else. She also gave the best enemas I’ve ever received. My girlfriends and ex-wife being close seconds.

When I had to give someone an enema at work younger men in there 40’s when I told them they would be getting an enema! It scared them or they were embarrassed! I ask them what position did they want to get it in, on their side with there legs put up a little! I have had them like that and they had those cheeks so tight I would tell them to relax and I would get a lubricant on my finger and stick it up their butt and hold it in a few minutes and when I would take it out and try to insert the nozzle they would be tight again!

I have ask them to get on their knees and stick their butts up and some would say yout got to be kidding! I told them to quit squeezing there butt together and they said they couldn’t help it! We would try on the side again and I put my finger up their butt and moved it around a little bit to try to get them to loosen up! We would start and not hardly get going and they would say I can’t hold anymore! Try a little bit more! Nurse I can’t! I would let them go to the bathroom!

I don’t think an enema was as embarrassing to them as going with a doctor and they tell them to drop their pants and they check the testicles and balls! That’s embarrassing standing there dangling and a nurse in the room and then tell them to bend over the table! At least women don’t have to bend over and stand there naked!

Yes, the ‘ first poster's ‘ experience was exactly mine as to my mother in the home and one of my high colonic administrators. Mother did not don a ’ latex glove on that day but did ever so gently insert her long, ’willowly‘ piano player index finger well up into my little rectum.

My lady colonic administrator did don a second glove over her already latex gloved hand and likewise gently inserted her index finger well up into my rectum in search of nay obstruction, and also to ‘ relax my anus / rectum for what was to shortly be arriving at the ’same station‘. As a short caveat my mother did not always perform a rectal exam prior to my enema but as I matured I do believe that she was aware of the ’in addition to' rectal stimulation her well lubricated and ever so gentle finger insertion gave to me.
