A member asked:
Can sitting and reading on the toilet for too long cause rectal prolapse?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Hemmorhoids too: There are much more comfortable and sanitary places to read. Sitting on the toilet spreads the cheeks and opens things up a bit so yes it can contribute. Try a brisk walk or even a jog to help stimulate a "movement" if that's the issue and avoid holding it in when u could just head to take care of it.
