Bearing down with inclination to stool, but without an evacuation (first second and third days). Slight bearing down and frequent desire for an evacuation.

Stool.

The mucous lining of the bowels became irritable, and evacuations exhibited a tendency to diarrhoea, with bearing down and greater rapidity of action than usual in health. Evacuations hard, with sensation of turgescence of the mucous lining of the bowels. Hard, dry evacuation, with a small quantity of blood at its termination (fourth day); following this for four or five days the bowels were obstinately constipated, the latter termination in sickness and diarrhoea, with extreme giddiness and general debility, relieved by Ipecacuanha.
