Finger examined can further aggravate constipation by causing injury & rectal ulcers.
Constipation need to be tacked & you need proctoscopic/ flexible sigmoidoscopy examination

Please do not use your finger for digital rectal evacuation, even if you are suffering from constipation. If you continue to use your finger for digital evacuation, you will start suffering from a disease called as solitary rectal ulcer syndrome. You will start bleeding from your anal canal. I now suggest you to use these following medications which will help you in relieving of constipation
