Hi everyone,
I've recently been experiencing (I say recently its probably a few months on and off) difficulty wiping after visiting the bathroom, my visits seem to be quite often even upto 3-5 times per day when I used to be able to go daily without any problem.
After passing a stool (can vary in size from anything down to thickness of little finger), I often feel like I cannot fully expel my bowels and as if something is there that doesn't quite want to come out.
Anyway, when wiping after sitting there for some time and nothing happening, the wiping never seems to stop... recently i've identified the colour as orange but it seems to take many wipes in order to procude a clean wipe (and without being graphic, I seem to have to dig in as much as possible to try and clean every last bit up.) I then occasionally get itching of the anus.
I would appreciate any help regarding this, i'm not sure if its possibly dairy related (cheese in particular, although it seems to also be regular occurrence with tomato based foods.). I try to eat clean as much as possible and avoid excess fats where I can.
I am 24 yo male from UK.
