How To Treat Hemorrhoids

I need help finding what briefs work best for bowel incontinence. I’m 20 years post anal surgery and I have Ulcerative Colitis. The colitis started after starting a driving job. I have been threw a bunch of medical tests for tumors and now bowel leakage is a problem. I have to wear protection when traveling. Many breifs I buy leak if I have a urge flow. This has been getting worse and I need better protection. Brian

I went to the GI doctor recently for abdominal pain, and they did a few tests, and the doctor said that the CT scan showed inflammation of the bowel. I’m wondering if it can just be something benign or if there are other conditions that can cause this other than Crohn’s or colitis?

I’m 19 and i have a bowel disease called have Ulcerative Colitis. It is completely under control, i have had no symptoms for over 2 years. My bowels work just as well as anyone else’s. However i take 4 tablets on a daily basis. Does this mean i can’t join the army? Does anyone know anyone in the army with a bowel disease?

I got severe bloody diarrhea last tues around 2:30 am until about 12pm on Wed. I was rushed to the hospital/admitted and put on fluids (sodium chloride and potassium) and later dextrose for Wed-Friday none stop.. Today is now Monday and I still havent had a bowel movement since Wed. I am getting concerned. I mete with my internist and gastrologist this Thurs as a followup so I definetly with let them know. I am also on 500mg of Flagyl 3 times a day and once a day of Levaquin 500mg once a day. Is this normal or should I be concerned that I havent went yet? Is it side effect from the meds or the potassium?
I forgot to add that The doctor did perform a colonoscopy & a biopsy. I get results this week from the biopsy
