Feeling Of Having To Move Bowels
A myIBSteam Member asked a question πŸ’­

Most times, after moving my bowels I have the constant feeling of still having to go. I do go a lot but it takes many bowel movements until the feeling goes away. It is miserable. I am happiest on days when I don’t go at all!
Can anyone else identify with this and is there anything that helps. Thanks.

Yes. But it can go away. I do burp a lot and relaxing the stomac afterward. Pretty effective in my case. Do that for 30 years now. At least 15 minutes a day. Good luck.
