Dr. Evan Goldstein, a renowned anal surgeon, advises against wiping after using the bathroom as it can cause irritation and tearing of the skin around the anus. He recommends using a bidet or a quick shower instead of wet wipes, which can disrupt the natural microbiome of the area and lead to infections. If using toilet paper, he suggests blotting instead of wiping and standing up to reduce pressure on the area. Goldstein emphasizes the importance of gut health for overall butt health. He also discusses the benefits of squatting while pooping and what a healthy poop should look like.
