Teen girl gets barium enema
A barium enema is an imaging test that uses X-rays to look at your lower gastrointestinal GI tract. Your lower GI tract includes the large intestine colon and rectum. X-rays use a small amount of external radiation to create images of your body, its organs, and other internal structures. X-rays are often used to detect bone or joint problems, or to check the heart and lungs.

TEENAGE GIRLS DEALING WITH DIGESTIVE ISSUES & GUT PAIN
Encopresis is when your child leaks stool into his or her underwear. It is also called stool soiling. It is most often because of long-term chronic constipation. Encopresis happens to children ages 4 and older who have already been toilet trained.



Contrast Enema
Put yourself in the shoes of a teenage girl, and the stress really piles on. Between rigorous schedules, the demands of school, social lives, and family problems, the life of a teenage girl can get pretty grueling. Add in a dash of social media, a pinch of drama, and a heaping helping of hormones, and you have a recipe for a teenage girl with digestive problems. Social stress and anxiety have now become portable and are unable to be left behind at the end of the school day. Emotional turmoil in teens can manifest as abdominal pain, digestive issues and other gastrointestinal symptoms.





At UPMC Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh , we believe parents and guardians can contribute to the success of this test, and we invite you to participate. Please read the following information to learn about the test and how you can help. The colon is located below the stomach at end of the large intestine. Digested food passes through the colon on the way out of the body through the rectum. You will see an X-ray machine, a long table and a television screen.
