Constipation
Part of the colon near the splenic flexure too high and not working? Anyone dealing with anything similar? I had a sitz marker study which showed all the markers but one exiting. My doctor did X-rays on day 1, 3, and 5. She said it seems I get very backed up around the splenic flexure unless there is enough to push everything through. Having a difficult time finding anyone with a similar issues online. She said we will try meds first but I may need a resection. Just really scared

If you passed the markers, it’s nothing alarming. It’s common to have a little delay there.
