Dealing with Incomplete Bowel Movements and Pain

This topic is about someone who has undergone a surgical procedure to close their anus, often referred to as "Barbie butt" surgery. Despite the surgery, they are experiencing discomfort that feels like incomplete bowel movements, along with pain and a clear gel-like discharge from the closed area. They are seeking advice on how to address these issues.

Here are some helpful insights and advice shared by others:

1. After the complete closure of the anus, there should be no discharge of stool, mucus, or gel from the area. If there is any discharge, it indicates that something might be wrong, and it is important to seek medical attention immediately.

2. One possible cause of this issue could be a fistula, which is an abnormal connection that may have formed between the bowel and the skin. If left untreated, a fistula can lead to infections, so it is crucial to address it promptly.

3. It is recommended to consult with the surgeon or a colorectal specialist as soon as possible to get a proper assessment and necessary treatment.
