While water will compress, it does so very little and so in a confined area, like a drain pipe, acts very much like a solid. When there is a blockage in a line with water backed up behind it, such as a sink drain or toilet, the rubber cup of the plunger acts to make a seal so that when you push on the handle, the water caught between the plunger seal and the blockage is pushed down the drain as if it were solid, thus forcing the blockage down the drain. This often moves the blockage to a larger portion of the drainage system, past the place where it is caught or simply breaks up the blockage so that it can flow down the drainage system.

A plumber will unclog a blocked toilet. Due to the expense of calling a plumber you would be advised to try and clear the blockage yourself using a plunger or a plumbing snake to push the blockage through the toilet outlet.( A plumbing snake can be fashioned from a wire coat hanger). Another way to clear a clogged toilet is with baking soda and vinegar which is added to the toilet bowl and can help to clear blockages. If the toilet is clogged by a blockage that has occurred in the pipe work to the sewers then you will have to employ a plumber to solve the problem.
