and add a little bit of mine. I think that once it gets backed up, the stuff behind it gets "unhappy" if you know what I mean... not infected, but since it's been sitting there, it's had time to... "fester" in a way. Your colon gets irritated with all the backed up stuff and once you get rid of the hard lumpy stool, all the yucky irritated stuff comes out.
That's my theory anyway!
