nausea and bowel irritation (tmi alert)

[kalms1971]

For a few weeks I have been needing to pass a bowel movement several times every morning. I am very careful to wipe properly and use baby wipes. However there is still an odour. DH not noticed but I feel rather conscious about it and am quite sore. I feel quite nauseous every morning and most days this doesn't go away. No chance could be pregnant so wondering if it could be a virus. Tried Colpermin but not made any difference

You need to go and see the doctor.

I agree please see your GP. Any changes in bowel habit should be looked into & the nausea isn't good either. For the soreness try Sudocrem & those moist toilet wipes - not baby wipes. Hope you feel better soon.

I had this a couple of months ago and it lasted about 3 or 4 weeks. I
Found myself getting very anxious about things and this made the problem worse. I saw my GP and she prescribed some medication usually given for IBS - this settled things down within a few days.

I have developed a reaction to moist toilet wipes, and would suggest that you're not helping yourself by using baby wipes. If you're worried about cleanliness, buy yourself some flannels and use those.

But definitely go and see your GP.

These are symptoms that you need to take seriously.
