The medication they give you during a colonoscopy can make you slightly constipated. Increasing your fiber should do the trick! You can either do this naturally by eating a lot of fruit or veggies, drinking Prune Juice or other thick juice; or you can take some of the OTC fiber supplements like Metamucil or Benefiber. I'd avoid a laxative unless you are constipated for several days.
The human bowel movement typically begins in the intestines. The bowel movement then moves through the colon and finally out of the sphincter.
Your stomach is on the left side of your body and cramp sometimes will happen if you haven't had enough calcium In actual fact it is not your stomach that you are referring to, but your abdomen of which your stomach is just one part. The gurgle and cramp before a bowel movement is usually due to peristalsis (the normal progressive contractions of bowel) in the left flexure of the greater colon as it forces air and faeces round this difficult bend into the descending colon. All this is an essential part of the final bowel movement.

Redundancy of the bowel is commonly known as redundant colon. This is a term that describes that the large intestine is longer than normal and has repetitive, overlapping loops.
The consistencies for the bowel movements depends on the speed of the peristalsis (the rate of speed that food is pushed through the bowel system). If a person has diarrhea, the food will move very quickly therefore causing less for the food and nutrients to be removed. So that will cause the stool to be very liquid.
It's not necessary to detox one's colon. In some extreme cases, you may need to detox it for health reasons. Colon cleansing helps initiate bowel movement as well.
No, an orange itself will not help with a bowel movement. Oranges are a good source of nutrients and vitamin C for your body. Though, fibre and orange juice will increase your chances of a good bowel movement.

During Colon Surgery your Surgeon will make a cut into your abdomen and take away the part of the colon that has the cancer. He will also take away a small section of the normal part of the colon on either side of the cancer. Then the rest of the pieces of you colon are then reattached. Nearby lymph nodes are taken out and then your Surgeon will close the cut he made earlier.

A hemicolectomy involves the removal of part of the colon. After surgery, you may experience changes in bowel habits, diet modifications, and fatigue. Your healthcare team will provide guidance on managing these changes and adapting to life after surgery.
