Jim. Bowel movements may be stimulated by digital stimulation. Digital stimulation is performed by inserting a lubricated finger into the anus and using a circular motion. Stimulate the lower bowel until the sphincter relaxes. This may take a few minutes. If digital stimulation does not produce a bowel movement within 20 minutes, repeat the procedure. Digital stimulation should be performed every day to stimulate bowel movement, until a pattern of regular bowel movements is established. Bowel movements may also be stimulated by using a suppository (glycerin or Dulcolax) or a small enema.
