The rules for urinating in the bathroom are ① wash your hands first ② urinate slowly ③ wash your hands again ④ dry your hands. issued on the 9th). It sounds easy, but ‘wash your hands after urinating’ is a difficult rule for people who are used to it.

Then, what are the toilet rules? Whether you are at home or in a public bathroom, what you must do after defecation is to ‘wipe the feces (poop) attached to the anus well’. Is anyone missing this? However, wiping the area with tissue paper is not as easy as you might think. If the stool is in good condition, cleaning is relatively straightforward. However, due to hemorrhoids, loose stools, etc., there are not a few people who find it an anguish to wipe after defecation.

Between 150 and 500 species of bacteria live in the stool, depending on the individual. Hundreds of millions to billions of germs can remain even in tissue paper that wipes the anus. If the condition of the public toilet is dirty, germs are infested on the toilet button or the bathroom doorknob. Bacteria are the cause of various infectious diseases. This is why cleaning up after having a bowel movement is so important.

First of all, the direction of wiping is important. The hand holding the tissue should be approached from the direction of the hip, not between the crotch. The most ideal way is to apply a tissue to the anus from the buttock direction, and then carefully push it back to the back. This is because if you put your hand between the crotch, you have no choice but to pull it forward. If you have a bidet, the post-processing can be a little cleaner.

To explain once again, the posture of putting your hand between the crotch is absolutely not (?) (concern about contamination of the perineum), and even if you approach from the hip side, you should not push the tissue toward the crotch. In particular, it is desirable for women to wipe in the backward direction. Why?

Between the anus and the vagina is the perineum. If you wipe the stool from the buttocks to the crotch, there is a high chance that the stool will get on the perineum, which can lead to vaginal infection. In the end, it acts as a cause of bacterial vaginosis or coldness caused to protect the vagina from bacteria. Especially for women who have given birth, more careful attention is required.

During natural childbirth, a small incision is usually made in the perineum to induce childbirth. After suturing, it may become slightly lumpy. If feces get stuck in this, there is a limit to wiping it off with tissue paper. The cause of vaginal infection is the result of being located right under the chin. Even if you use a bidet, there is a high possibility that feces will enter the vaginal opening and experience symptoms such as the ‘ugly butterfly’.

In conclusion, the toilet rules are ① wash your hands first ② dry your hands ③ defecate ④ clean up well with tissue paper or a bidet (the direction is important) ⑤ wash your hands again ⑥ dry them, these six are the basics am. In this process, number 4 is the most important.
