Please don’t make fun. Im a 15 year old girl.
I have a spastic Colon (Atleast what my mom tells me)
I get horrible cramps and hurts to go poop.
Most of the time when I go lately, It hurts really bad and a little blood comes out.
Should I go see a doctor? I don’t want a Aneurysm from straining.

A friend of mine told me he has a spastic colon, what does this mean and how can you tell if you have one?
I know it’s not an "infectious disease" but yahoo answers said it would fit best in this category.

I know this is a disgusting topic so don’t respond if you get easily grossed out!

I’m a 24 year old, generally healthy young female. I was diagnosed with IBS/Spastic Colon about 5 years ago and have only had a few attacks over that amount of time after diet and lifestyle changes.

On the 4th of this month I was in the hospital for ulcerative colitis (way to spend the holiday huh?) and I was treated with Imodium AD and put on a liquid diet for about 12-24 hours. I felt fine shortly after and a few days later my bowel movments seemd normal..at first.

I was watching what I ate as always, lots of fiber, drinking plenty of water, etc.

The last week or two I’ve notice that whenever I make a bm my stools are some what loose (not diarrhea) or they’ll be more solid but are a greenish color and I can see bits of undigested food in them (like spinach) I haven’t eaten a lot of meat or anything that’s very fatty in the last week.

I don’t have health insurance and I don’t want to have to go back to the hospital.

I haven’t been vomiting and no other symptoms (except some gas and bloating).

Any ideas?

I woke up this morning with a really bad abdominal pain in my upper right side. It’s been going on all day. It hurts the most when I go to stand up and when I turn around and twist that side. I’ve had a lot of colon problems in the past and been to the doctor a bunch over it. They never knew what is really wrong but they thought it was a spastic colon. It also hurts really bad if I have an empty stomach. Like when I go to a baseball game and don’t eat the whole game an sit down it hurts very bad and extends to my chest and I have trouble breathing and it constantly persists until I lay down for about 30 min. I’m only 16, any ideas what is wrong and why I’m having these pains. Thanks in advance.

I find it harder to breathe and now that i am on the medicine i feel backed up and just crappy in general. woohoo!!!! some times i feel like i have a crampsmall pressure in my sides right below my rib cage and sometimes i just feel real tired and wore out.

drink-drink occasionally and when i do its only a little bit havent been drunk in 4 years

medical history-nothing serious just minor stuff. had bronchitis once and allergic to penicillin

I dont want to alarm any of my cos workers, but I do have a spastic colon. I like to take several trips to the pots through out the work day, just incase. I have noticed that When I get up and struggle towards the bathedroom door, my co workers all roll there eyes. I guess that they are doing this out of concerns for my healthed and well being. I am thinking that I should send out an office wide email memo just to alert my fellow co workers of my spastic colon condition so that they will not worry so much.

I have decreased gall bladder function and spastic colon (and/or IBS) and no matter what I eat I get a lot of gas in my colon. I’ve tried beano and Gas X which hasn’t made a difference. Does anyone have any idea on what I can do to help? It happens all day everyday and I can’t make it stop! Thanks!

Hi im 18 years old and aparently i have possibly developed a spastic colon, my question is can i ever get rid of my spastic colon??? so i can stop taking medicine for it because the thought of taking medication the rest of my life when im only 18 is killing me. This all started after a bad reaction to some acne medication. I have obviously stopped the acne meds long time ago but the spasims continue… im hoping that since i was fine before the medicine there is a good chance i can get rid of them.

Thanks and Godbless

So I think I have IBS and I might request to have an abdominal x-ray to see if I have a spastic colon. Would a x-ray or any type of test show if I have a spastic colon (IBS)?
