Do you also make these 5 mistakes in the toilet? These are the real root of piles and constipation:

News India Live, Digital Desk: Gut Health: What do we do to keep our health good. We pay a lot of attention to what to eat, how much exercise to do, but our attention never goes on a very basic and daily habit – and that is the way to go to the toilet.

You probably find it strange to hear this, but some small mistakes made during defecation can cause great damage to our stomach, intestines and entire digestive system in a long time. The root of painful diseases like constipation, gas and even piles (piles) is often hidden in these mistakes. Let’s know about the 5 common habits that we need to change today and now.

1. To force too much
Many times the stomach is not clean properly, then people forcefully try to move the bowel. This is one of the most dangerous habits. By doing this, there is a lot of pressure on our intestines and lower abdomen veins, which increases the risk of piles (hemorrhoids) manifold. If you have to force often, it means that your body lacks fiber and water. Include salads, fruits and more water in your diet, not sit in the toilet and put in force.

2. Take the phone along
It has become the most common and worst habit of today. People sit in the toilet for 15-20 minutes just because they are watching videos on the phone or running social media. It has two major disadvantages:

• Gercy: There are thousands of germs in the toilet seat and surrounding places, which stick to your phone and then reach your hands and mouth from there.
• Waste of time: As we mentioned above, sitting on the toilet seat for a long time puts pressure on the veins, which is the direct cause of piles.

3. Wrong Posture
This is a mistake on which hardly anyone gets attention. Sitting on a 90 -degree angle on a western toilet (chair seat) is not a natural position of bowel movement for our body. The texture of our body is made for a squatting position, as in Indian toilets.

• Solution: If you have a western toilet in your house, there is nothing to worry about. Just keep a small stool or outpost under your feet. This will lead to your knees a little above and your body will get almost uproot -like positions, which will clean the stomach easily and at one time.

4. Sitting for a long time
Whether you are running the phone or not, do not make the mistake of considering the toilet a library or comfort. 5 to 7 minutes is enough for defecation. If you are taking more time than this, then it is a sign of constipation. Avoid sitting for a long time, and if the stomach is not clean then try again after some time.

5. Negligence in cleanliness or use of more chemical
It is very important to keep cleaning after defecation, but it should avoid very hard soap or very fast rubbing. The skin of that place is very delicate and rubbing hard chemical or coercion can also cause irritation, itching or fissures. The best way is to use plain water.

These small habits have a huge impact on our health. By changing these, we can not only keep our digestive system healthy, but can also protect ourselves from many serious and painful diseases.
