pink colon wall

pink colon wall

Here's my question,  I seem to have an issue making sure that my colon is clean after a bowel movement. I rub so much that  I seem to rub my skin off my colon. I don't know if this is a cleanliness issue or not , but I rub so much that my skin is pink around my colon ,and at times, I clean so much that I make myself slightly bleed. Is this a pysch issue??? Ok I guess I should let you know that I am a truck driver and have been driving truck for almost 13 years. But this issue has only been happening in the last couple of years.

I think what you  are referring to is your anus. Your colon is inside you, where you can't see or wipe. Have you tried the moist wipes that are made for adults for this purpose? They should make you feel much cleaner than regular tissue.
