My colleague smells like feces

[Anonymous]

My colleague who pays me regular visits and leaves behind a stench smells like they have not wiped their behind after going number 2. Or there is a never-ending fart. I can't stand it. I don't know what to do. It's very uncomfortable but I'm wondering if she has a medical disorder. I don't want to address this with her but want to source if this is a medical issue. Is there something wrong? She does not appear to be unclean nor unkempt.

Do you have an HR department?

Colostomy bag

This is probably what is it. I worked with a colleague with one and it was obvious when it was full. We just kept face because what else can you do??? Obviously that wasn't her life choice.

I was on a cruise ship and the cabin next to me had a colostomy bag. The stench was unbearable and we could smell it in our cabin either.

Is it possibly something easy to fix - like she stepped in poo and it's in her shoe dried in?

Let HR handle it. Maybe they could put those cottonelle bathroom wipes or summer eve's wipes in the bathroom?

How DCUM. Complain to HR when the person who offends you has no control about their situation and you're uncomfortable.

What did you end up doing?

I was wondering if she was fat? Sometimes REALLY excessively fat people can't seem to reach all their bits to get the shit off.

But colostomy bag sounds reasonable.

Take this thread over to "Heath" section. Perhaps a nurse can assist.

Ooops, just saw this we are in "Health"!!

It's probably a colostomy bag. The person probably needs to empty/change it or let the air out, which cannot be done without causing further stench, so maybe what you're smelling is the lesser of two evils.

Just breathe through your mouth when this person is around and be grateful you don't have one.
