What causes narrow anal canal?
The causes of anal stenosis include surgery of the anal canal, trauma, inflammatory bowel disease, radiation therapy, venereal disease, tubercolosis, and chronic laxative abuse. We focus on the treatment of postsurgical anal stenosis. Ninety percent of anal stenosis is caused by overzealous hemorrhoidectomy[16].
How can I widen my anal canal?
This is a way to help stretch out the anal canal. For a mild stricture, this is done by placing your finger or an anal dilator into the anus, 2 times a day for 2 months. This helps to stretch the area. For a more severe stricture, dilatation may be done in a hospital.
Why can’t I push my poo out?
If you often have trouble making bowel movements and have to take laxatives (drugs that help you go) on a regular basis, you could one day have a serious bowel problem called fecal impaction. A fecal impaction is a large, hard mass of stool that gets stuck so badly in your colon or rectum that you can’t push it out.
Why do I poop balls?
Pebble, or pellet, bowel movements aren’t usually a reason to worry, but they likely mean stool is moving through your intestines at a slower pace than usual.

What happens if you push too hard while pooping?
Harder stools and less responsive muscles often cause people to push harder when they have to go. This can make veins surrounding the anus swell, resulting in hemorrhoids — essentially varicose veins, inside or outside the anus. They itch, hurt, and can result in blood and mucus in the stool and during wiping.
Graduated from ENSAT (national agronomic school of Toulouse) in plant sciences in 2018, I pursued a CIFRE doctorate under contract with Sun’Agri and INRAE in Avignon between 2019 and 2022. My thesis aimed to study dynamic agrivoltaic systems, in my case in arboriculture. I love to write and share science related Stuff Here on my Website. I am currently continuing at Sun’Agri as an R&D engineer.
