I need help!!??


Question: i have this friend whos younger then me shes 17... okay she told me a secret today that i couldnt believe.. (heres where its gross) she said in order to pass a bowel she needs to stick a finger in her butt to help!! I WAS LIKE WTF!! and she told me not to tell anyone, i told her i wouldnt but i need advice..shes healthy otherwise.. no problems and she said not all the time but a lot.. is this okay?? PLZ HELP!! :
Answers: Sounds like the friend could use some fresh fruits and veggies. Depending on the individual many things can cause constipation. Even the time of month may have an effect.

A proper diet, plenty of water, and exercise usually do the trick. Patience can help, too. A good book is nice for a 10 minute sit.

Psyllium seed husk (the main and only healthy ingredient in Metamucil) can move things along. Psyllium seed husk or psyllium husk is found at the health food store and can be mixed with juice and downed. I have used it for other the opposite reason.

I would recommend a visit to the doc for professional advice. Perhaps she has irritable bowel syndrome? Who knows?

For a gentle and chemical-free possible solution; diet, water, and exercise.

Good Luck!! :)
um.... I do not know what to say I think she is find but maybe she needs to find other way
Tell your friend she needs to see a doctor. You should not have to manually help yourself go. Or at least tell her mother and ask for advice.
Pardon the expression, but maybe she is crapping bricks. Have her try a stool softener like psyllium husks (health food store and cheap). Otherwise she may have an obstruction that needs to be attended.
Your friend needs to see a doctor. That way if her bowels are hard to pass she can get some medicine for it which will help her. All she really needs is sorbital. It's to help people pass there bowels when they are having problems. Tell her to go see a doctor and explain to him/her what the problem is. The doctor will know better what to do... Good luck and i hope this help... God Bless.
I would highly recommend going to see a hollistic doctor because they can really help her...
just google one in your area and make sure its a good one...call the office if you get a good vibe it's a goo :)

Good luck
