Intestinal Health
Starting from the bottom of the stomach to the anus, the intestines do the work of absorbing what we eat and putting it to good use. When they are working well, we hardly think about them. When they don't, we have questions. Ask them here.

What is choledocoduodenostomy?
Choledocoduodenostomy is a surgical procedure that involves creating an opening between the common bile duct and the duodenum (the first part of the small intestine) to bypass an obstruction or stricture in the bile duct. This procedure allows bile to flow directly into the intestine, bypassing the obstruction and preventing bile backup in the liver.
How do you get rid of gas pain?
Okay, I've had lots of trouble with gas before. Dont take gas pain reliever, it never works. What you do is get on your hands and knees, then proceed by lowering your head to the ground and rest your cheek against the floor. Then stick your butt high in the air. Relax a little bit and wait a couple minutes, then start to push. It might take alittle patience depending on the gas amount in there, for example the more there is the faster it will take to start coming out. This will work every time, because gas rises upward, and it will come out in large amounts. This has saved me from lots of suffering. So dont let that pesky gas make you miserable. You'll surely feel better with my method, so go ahead and give it a try :)
Why do rabbits have wet feces?
Healthy rabbits don't have wet feces. If your rabbit's feces is wet, that's called diarrhea or mushy stool, and it means your bunny is sick. Bring your bunny to the vet as soon as possible for an exam.
Diarrhea in baby rabbits is a life-threatening emergency!Don't waste another second: get to to the vet's immediately.
In adult rabbits, the situation isn't as dire but it is serious. Maybe your rabbit simply isn't getting enough fiber in her diet, or maybe she has an illness. Either way, if you don't treat it soon, your rabbit will get worse and eventually become deathly ill.
The first thing to do is look at your bunny's diet. An adult rabbit needs a diet very high in fiber, very low in fat, and not too high in protein.
The best way to get lots of fiber is for your rabbit to eat lots and lots of grass hay: at least his own body size daily. If your rabbit doesn't have hay, go out and buy some right now. If your bunny has hay, but isn't eating much, try to figure out why. Is the hay yellow and dusty? Do you change it every day (whether or not he eats it)? Hay should be fresh (greenish, although some varieties are more yellow than others, but it should smell sweet, not too dusty, and there should be no rot or insects). Change it every day, to keep your rabbit interested. Put some in his litter box, and stuff some in toys. Pick up a strand and gently wave it in front of his face, like as a game, and he'll snatch it away from you and eat it. Once he's eating one strand, he might just keep eating, so put a pile in front of him.
Also look at the pellets your bunny eats, because a low-quality kind can give your rabbit wet feces. Plenty of pellets on the market are way too high in protein; some are also too high in fat, and too low in fiber. See the related question below for more details about pellets.
Too many treats, especially unhealthy treats, can make your rabbit have wet feces, too. Avoid all foods made for humans: they're just too high in carbohydrates (sugar, starch), and sometimes other dangerous ingredients. No bread, cereal, oatmeal, cookies, crackers, etc. Most pet-store treats for rabbits are bad, too. For treats, stick to fresh fruits and vegetables: it's less expensive than store-bought treats, just as yummy for the rabbit, and healthier. Limit treats to a bite or two per day. Find out which fruits and vegetables are safe, first, because some are not.

Where does undigested food end up?
Well the nutrients that can't be digested and absorbed in the small intestine move on to the large intestine. The water is reabsorbed out of it and then moves down to the colon. When the bowels move the feces are egested via the rectum and anus.

A yeast infection will itch and burn, and can be spread like an STD so it is important to treat ASAP. You can try to prevent this next time by eating yogurt with active cultures during your course of antibiotics.
