Answers:
no need to rush to the er.. its barium.. (baruim enema or lower gi series) needed the bowel to be clear to have a good visualization.. barium causes constipation & if you passed your stool its clay colored.. you just need to increase fluid & fiber intake, & engage in activity thus promoting peristalsis.. or buy laxatives (castor oil etc) w/c aids in bowel movt
