How do things get stuck in the anus?

FrozenHandle@lemmy.frozeninferno.xyz to No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world – 77 points –

I have seen a lot of stories online of people getting things stuck in there and doctors having to remove it, even items like cucumbers. I get that an item with a highly irregular shape could get stuck. But if it's something long and rounded, why can people not just poop it out? Is it because the item isn't soft enough?

I was going to skim it but became so enthralled I read the whole thing. I don't know why.

Same. I think the highlights were the reasons and the list of objects.

Lightbulbs and knives?? Why

Knifes because that's what one keeps in their prison wallet, and lightbulbs because one is looking for something else up there.
