PLEASE REPLY I WANT URGENT HELP ! Instant help for new UC patients.

Ah, razor-blade poops during flares, I hate those! They hurt badly! Prednisone can be rocket fast at healing high in the large intestine, we start passing solid stools before our rectum has healed enough and it is still very, very inflammed and raw. The result is pain when pooping. You're still flaring, and haven't fully healed enough down-low within your rectum and that's the cause of the pain. Rectum always has the most severe inflammation that persists the longest.

The solution is you should be treating your rectum with rectal-route medication and heal the severe UC inflammation . Either anti-inflammatory mesalamine or steroids. You have a choice of using like canasa suppositories, mesalamine foams or enemas. Steroid suppositories, foams, and enemas are also possible.

For now, reduce your insoluble fiber intake! Eat low-fiber until you heal!

24 mg pred . I am not taking any rectal enema/ suppsstory . I took it only once and that too 1 month before . Should i start rectal mesalamine enemas ir not? Suggest me

I will buy them. In my county the mesalamine enemas can be used only once. They come one in a packet so I will buy some if u recommend me to use them at night.

You could certainly try a nightly mesalamine enema for 3 weeks and see if it helps you. We're not doctors, are you seeing a gasteroenterologist-specialist doctor to treat your uc?

Generally they recommend 4.8 grams daily of oral mesalamine and 4.0 grams of mesalamine enema before bed.

I am being treated by a gastroentrologist doctor with 38 years of experience . Bt have appointment with him after 12 days. So I thought that you could tell me the reason and solution to my problem cause you all may have experienced the same. I will ask my doctor also once about the enemas or for any other precaution or solution to the problem.

Thanxx

Ok thanxx. Bought mesalamine enemas today and is going to use it tonight. Lets see what happens...!

ENEMAS are miracle. I took them for nearly 5 days and the burning sensation has stopped . My doctor advised me not to take enemas as I am on prednisolone. He suggested and told that he will start foam eneams (entofoam) after tapering steroids to 0mg. He said that steroid is doin all the functions currently and oral mesalamine are enough for controlling the inflammation. By the way thanks for suggesting me to use enemas. Now I am living my life like a normal person. He told me that I could go to gym afer 3 months and to Any high intensity excercise or could run as much miles as I want and could eat anything outside or inside. But for these three months I will have to restrict my diet and have to keep myself clean . He treated me In one month from 10-15 bloody motions a day to no blood /no mucous hard forming stool.

Stool routine: 1 or 2 times in the morning
Stool type: hard formed stool . No blood . No mucuOs
Pain: no pain( whether abdominal or intestinal )
Diet: Everything except dairy , fried food, softdrinks, streetfood,raw vegetables and fruits, salad. I also make my food a lil spicy which donot bothers me at all.

Currently on prednisolone-16 mg
Mesalamine-3.6mg/day
Folic acid and calcium tablets.

Sounds like a great start using the enemas.

You wait. They go away after stopping pred.
