<human>: I'm a bit confused about the difference between an enema and a colostomy. Which one is right for me?
<bot>: An enema involves inserting water into the rectum, while a colostomy involves surgically creating an opening in the abdomen through which waste can be passed out of the body. So an enema is more like a natural way to flush out your colon, while a colostomy is a surgical procedure that creates an artificial way for you to get rid of your waste.
