MAY 28, 2025Prioritize your vocal health with these practical vocal hygiene tips to improve communication and overall well-being.
Read MoreYes, it's true and we all know it. Unfortunately, sometimes the process of eliminating stool ("pooping") doesn’t go well. Individuals may experience fecal incontinence and/or difficulty emptying, which can result in embarrassment, social isolation and further medical complications. Here are some basic facts that everyone should know:
Most individuals should expect to eliminate a soft, formed stool every day or every other day. You should not need to strain to eliminate stool. Elimination should happen when you sit on the toilet and relax the muscles of the pelvic floor, allowing natural gut movement to expel the stool with minimal to no additional abdominal pressure.
The CHI Health Pelvic Health Center has a number of specialists who are able to help individuals with these and many other conditions associated with the process of eliminating stool. Although it’s something that many people would rather not discuss, it is one of the most important daily bodily functions, and an indication of overall well-being. If you are experiencing any bothersome condition related to the pelvic region, please don’t hesitate to contact our navigator at (402) 717-7358 and see how we can help.
