Obstructed Defaecation Syndrome (ODS) Treatment
Keeping the stools soft, avoiding straining and the use of glycerine suppositories will help many patients.
Where the problem is due to function then biofeedback / physiotherapy is usually recommended to enable patients to regain co-ordination of their pelvic floor.
If a physical cause for the symptoms is found surgical correction may be recommended. Such procedures might include a rectocele repair or ventral mesh rectopexy for patients with enterocele or internal prolapse.
