In ancient Egypt there was a sacred duty: to ensure the good health of the pharaoh.
If the pharaoh felt that he had eaten too much or had intestinal problems, he only had to call his anal guardian.

The “proctologist” was in charge of problems such as hemorrhoids, but another of his functions was to empty the pharaoh’s intestines when he had ingested so much food that it made digestion difficult.
The guardian of the sacred anus inserted a cannula and blew hot water to open his rectum.

And not only did the pharaohs use this technique, other low-ranking ancient Egyptians did as well, but instead of cannulas, rods or tubes were used through which water was pumped into the patient’s intestines.
