I definitely wouldn't do that.

I think you could try a maxi pad on the outside. That might help a bit.

I too would go with a pad instead. I'd think that using a tampon there would cause problems. But, another option would be to contact your doctor for ideas.

I agree, really not a good idea. You risk irritating your rectum mucosa furthermore plus stimulating more contractions from your rectum with an object inserted inside. Risk of having trouble expelling the object as well.
Ask your Gi if Bismuth (pepto bismol) would be suitable for you to use on occasions. This can help slow down the bowel movements.

if something wants out that bad, trying to keep it dosent sound good.
I get to the point where saying no is not an option.

Besides that tampons are designed for a whole other intended use... common sense also dictates that it will not end well trying to get that thing out of your bum. Plus, if something needs out... let it out... I don't think plugging it off would help, in fact it may really hurt you. I really honestly would not do that...just saying. :eek2:

Using anything like a cork placed into the anus is asking for serious medical trouble, even in a healthy person. Use disposable adult diapers, and if those are too expensive paper towels inside one's pants will suffice.
