I have daily used my finger for my bowel movement and manually try to get clean my colon for about 5 -6 years and now I have stop that shameful act from about 2 years. I have started this from about 8 standard and I do not know much about bad or good this at that time. But as I understand that this is unnatural I feel shameful and regretted but then I am not able to get bowel properly and I continued it for about 5-6 years. After that I am getting medication for the irregular bowel habits it help me lot but not completely. Even after that it is about 4 to 5 times to go daily for bowel without figure enema. I do not have that courage to say my cause of irregular bowel habit is that shameful act to any body including my gastrointestinal doctor to which I consult. Is there chances of permanent damage to my colon or rectum? How can I treat this situation. Please suggest some specialist doctors for medication.

You have to overcome the guilt that you are indulging now. Please read more about bowel habits and healthy lifestyle from the internet so that there is clarity in your thoughts. Do not worry and focus on simply eating well (with daily servings of fruits and vegetables ). Balanced diet and daily exercise will solve your constipation problems naturally. Learn Yoga and pranayam which will improve not only your bowel problems but also overall wellbeing. You can later try Homeopathy if needed. You can contact me for that.
