The questions you were too embarrassed to ask!
According to a new survey by constipation treatment Dulcolax, a quarter (26%) of us have a health question we’re too embarrassed to ask our GP. For almost one in 10 (9%) it’s bowels that are taboo, second only to sex (15%) as the most embarrassing topic we’ll avoid. A worrying number (6%) say we’ve backed out of asking our GP a question about our bowels because we were too embarrassed.
That’s why experts from Dulcolax and the charity Beating Bowel Cancer have teamed up to answer the nation’s embarrassing bowel questions; from ‘what is constipation?’ and ‘what if it hurts to go to the loo?’ to ‘I have piles, what should I do?’.
Following an online call for questions earlier this year, the experts, including a GP, a nutritionist and a nurse, have provided straight talking answers and advice about constipation and other bowel worries.
