What is the function of sigmoid flexure?
Sigmoid colonThe sigmoid colon is the part of the large intestine after the descending colon and before the rectum. The name sigmoid means S-shaped (see sigmoid). The walls of the sigmoid colon are muscular, and contract to increase the pressure inside the colon, causing the stool to move into the rectum.The sigmoid colon is supplied with blood from several branches (usually between 2 and 6) of the sigmoid arteries, a branch of the IMA. The IMA terminates as the superior rectal artery.

When constipated and you use an enema will you still have hard stools?
Very likely, yes. The enema helps to move material through the colon but the stool itself doesn't have time to absorb much of the water. If there is looser stool behind the harder material, that will of course remain loose and will follow the harder stool.
