embarassing...
UPDATE for those who care...the surgeons office told me to use a glycerine suppository as many of you suggested. it was the most painful bowel movement i've had in my life...but its over now thank goodness. i have to eat some prunes every other day to prevent it from reoccuring.
that was nooooo joke though..

I tried putting my thumb in my vagina and it didn't work 
.
My son has bowel problems and often becomes impacted. His GI doctor explained the treatment for us and what to do when certain things occur. The first was a daily dose of Miralax thesecond is that if he begins to become impacted that anything swallowed probably will not help the immediate issue as it is only affecting the new material, but you need to address the issue from the other end. Yes Fleet enemas, I was amazed that we had to give a 5 year old 5 of them in the period of 2 days, after the immediate problem is dealt with we give him some stuff that cleans him out and then restart the miralax.
Fortunately I don't have this issue but I think it would be easier if it was me and not my now 9 year old son.
