How to make an enema home correctly

With the aim of losing weight, with dysbacteriosis and prolonged constipation, the use of enema is recommended. This procedure is very effective, but it requires some experience. Before you do it, read the relevant literature, ask a question to a person with a medical background and find out how to properly do an enema at home.

First of all, read all possible contraindications. These include acute appendicitis, hemorrhoidal, gastric and intestinal bleeding, strangulated hernia, curvature of the intestines, acute pain in the abdomen, the presence of inflammatory processes or tumors in the rectum or anus.

If you do not know how to make an enema, get a mug of Esmarch. This is the most convenient device for home cleaning procedures. It consists of a rubber, sometimes polyethylene, balloon, similar in appearance to a rubber hot water bottle. A flexible thick-walled tube of at least one and a half meters length is attached to it. Also included is a set of special tips, glass and plastic. On the tube there is a cock, with which help it is necessary to regulate the supply of liquid. Before making an enema, make sure the tip is smooth, to avoid possible injuries, and after it is completed, be sure to boil it. The capacity of the Esmarch mug varies from one to two and a half liters. It is recommended to start with the introduction of half a liter of liquid, with each procedure increasing its amount.

So, how to make an enema? Consider the process of carrying out all manipulations. The Esmarch mug should be fixed at a height of about one and a half meters and filled with a pre-prepared liquid. Well-settled or boiled water is used. Check its temperature, it should slightly exceed the room temperature. If the water is approximately equal to the temperature of your body, the intestine will begin to suck it and will not shrink. Hot water can not be used. To increase the effect, add a little lemon or beet juice to the water.

How to make an enema so that the procedure becomes as effective as possible? It is important to choose the optimal time for it. The best option is early morning (five to seven hours) or evening (from eight to nine). It was during this period that the organism is perfectly tuned to cleansing. The quality of the procedure is greatly influenced by the environment. A bathroom will suit you, where no one will disturb you. Spread an oilcloth on the floor, be sure to visit the toilet in advance.

To make an enema, you should lie on your left side, pulling your knees to your stomach, or taking a knee-elbow position. Lubricate the tip with cream and gently insert into the anus. Open the clamp on the hose and release the liquid. Adjust its feed. If any unpleasant sensations occur, the water supply should be suspended, several times take a deep breath and continue the procedure. After injecting all the liquid, remove the tip and try to hold water in the intestine for ten minutes. Pose do not change.

If you need to do an enema again, be sure to wait forty to sixty minutes and make sure that all the liquid that has been poured out has left the intestine. Experts recommend the use of a repeat procedure for cleansing enemas. A solution of chamomile is added to the water, which has a soothing and antibacterial effect. Having dealt with how to properly do an enema at home, do not forget about the consultation with an experienced specialist. It is he who prescribes all the necessary procedures, having previously conducted the examination and taking the necessary tests.
