Do doctors recommend colon cleansing?

Answer

I'm assuming you're referring to regular colon cleansing, which is often called colon irrigation or colon hydrotherapy. The practice is classified as a type of alternative medicine, and is generally frowned upon by practitioners of conventional medicine.

As far as I'm aware, the only evidence-based indication for regular colon irrigation is in chronic constipation, where it can be used to treat fecal impaction.

AnswerIf you're talking about herbal colon cleansing (not hydrotherapy or colon irrigation), there are quite a few doctors who would recommend herbal colon cleansing instead of regular OTC laxatives. Herbal colon cleansers have an advantage - they not only safely help cleanse the colon, but also assist the body in promoting natural regularity. Fiber-based (look for psyllium husk) colon cleansers are great. Some of these herbal colon cleansers, like BeneCleanse, consist of a comprehensive program that cleanses the colon, detoxifies the system, supports digestion by restoring a healthy intestinal microflora, and provides nutritional support for colon health. This is a more scientific approach to colon cleansing and it works gently with the natural systems of your body.

What should you do if you have had a colonoscopy and are now markedly distended?

Relax, A colonoscopy requires air to be pumped into the bowel, inflating the organ so the camera at the end of the scope can image properly. That air can take from an hour to a few days to be expelled. If you have not been given specific instruction on how to reduce the discomfort then an over the counter simethicone product like GasX will help.

Ask your pharmacist for more information.
