How correctly to put an enema with a syringe in case of constipation at home?
From the very beginning, it is necessary to cover the zone where the procedure will take place. The injected liquid should not be cold - about 37 degrees Celsius.
During the procedure, the person in need lays down on the left side, and then flexes the knees. Insert the tip of the pear with turning movements.

It is desirable that the patient has an assistant, since it is difficult for one person to immediately control both his organism and the process of water supply to him. After all the liquid is over, you need to pull out the hose. A person should still lie for about 20 minutes in one place, otherwise the effect can not be achieved. After that go to the toilet.
