Your lucky. Sounds like you avoided an ER visit but next to priapism a fecal impaction has to be the most embarrassing thing to have to go to the ER for. Not only is it horrible for you but it's horrible for the health care providers too. A fecal impaction is when (to put it simply) there is so shit in you that it can't pass through your asshole unassisted. A doctor has to put his hand up your ass and break up the crap manually. I hear it can be like breaking a dam... All I know is I wouldn't want to be a nurse covering that procedure. I'm just imagining the conversation you'd have with your doctor during the procedure: You (with your ass in the air) : Oww doc! I thought you said you'd only use two fingers! Doctor : Yeah, I said that but I'm using my whole hand cause I don't like you.
