Hi folks, I suffered with this for years and years. I would go to the bathroom and literally had to go back and re-wipe and clean myself again an hour later. I tried everything, saw my doctor, changed my diet, nothing worked. My gastro told me it was something I will have to live with. I have heartburn and stomach problems since around 1995. Since then I had been on acid reducers, etc every day. I was at my sons college graduation and had terrible pain in my chest area and thought the worst. I went to the ER and was told my stomach lining was absolutely torn up. The doctors put me on 20mg of Nexium and told me to take it twice daily. I did and 3 days after I started taking it, my condition down under cleared up. It's been a month since I have had to re-clean myself after a BM. It cannot be a coincidence. Nexium is a Proton Pump Inhibitor and I think this is the key. I think the pump is pumping too much and that is what is causing the seepage from the back side. I have checked online and could not find anything else on this but wanted to share my experience. If you are having this issue please try Nexium, 20 mg twice a day and see if it helps. My Nexium is prescription but I understand they sell it over the counter. If you try this and it works please post here!
