    Usually only occurs in young children, but, you can be so constipated that you vomit feces.

    Sorry for ruining your day.

      I was working in a hospital once when a guy with a severe internal gastric bleed threw up feces and ‘coffee ground emesis’

      Very gross.

      I’m a nurse homie. I’m very aware of a lot of the gross things bodies are capable of

      ETA: feces smelling burps are a sign of an intestinal blockage, we really appreciate you sharing that with us early in the hospital before your bowels perforate
