The basic etiquette of using the toilet is mostly understood by the majority of people out there but we bet this next piece of information regarding some other matters isn’t as well explained as the rest.
One pelvic floor expert says there is a reason why people are told never to wipe down there more than three times, right after taking the dump.
If you happen to be a part of those who prefer wiping their behind not once but thrice, well, it’s time to pay close attention.
The news came forward in the form of a video that was uploaded on TikTok. This is from a physiotherapist that went by the name of George and it ends up explaining a lot of things.
And that entails the right number of times you need to be wiping that behind.
The physiotherapist begins by reducing the number of times that a person wipes while going for the number two act.
She says that anyone that wipes more than once is indulging in something called fecal smearing. And that occurs when too much fecal matter stays at the entrance of the anus, despite the fact that you have done your duty.
Hemorrhoids or scar tissue starts to accumulate there as well. And that needs to be checked out by a medical professional, she adds.
Excessive wiping would lead to extreme dryness, itching, pain, and even bleeding. She also commented on how so many people in the US end up wiping in an over-excessive fashion. And this causes anal tears or fissures to form.
While the advice may have sounded great to some, for others, it was a great big joke. And they began asking her in the comments section some ridiculous queries like what to do if your bum is too hairy. Well, we can only say that such people need to avoid watching videos that actually make sense. What do you think?
