Digital Help is generally not recommended. Most patients would recognize this as symptom not cure. Fingers (gloved) may be used to support the posterior wall of the vagina during defaecation if they have huge rectocoeles. It is also possible to carry this support further by applying milking pressure on the posterior vaginal wall.
Some patients use pressure on the perineum to squeeze faeces out
Some use finger to hook faecal pellets out
Digital help is not very effective, as it only removes the faeces in the lower rectum. It may also lead to injury to the lining of the rectum
