I read in Google that holding the toilet in is bad for you and can lead to bowel obstruction. Lately I've been working 8 hours shifts but sometimes get wind/feeling I need or maybe need but can hold it back until later in the day when I finish work.
Could this been bad for me?
(I started out getting frequent movements going about 4-5 times a day couldn't hold it in. Past few months my stomach has settled and I've been able to go to work and with a slight cramp but go after my 8 hour shift when I get home..so is it bad yo leave it off? It's confusing as if I go every time I think I need I'll go about every 5 mins sometimes for constipation or wind..so I duno if it's a positive sign my IBS is settled now the urgency has gone or if I really should make an effort of getting rid if I get a slight cramp to go..I mean I get bowel cramps like I really need some days...well the odd day but I do try and go in that day but I don't feel much so I go the next day..so why am I getting the feeling like I actually need is it IBS? But anyway is it damaging if I do sort of need a little bit to hold off that shift? The odd time I've actually not been able to hold off so I went but now I can mostly hold off..so is that a good sign or a worrying one?) :unsure:
