Being an adult comes with its fair share of strange maladies that require attention. Backs and other places on your body might sprout hairs; sweat might appear so much that it’s a problem. They happen and steps are needed to be taken. Areas should be trimmed and powders should be applied. Another area that often requires attention particularly hirsute individuals need to pay more attention their hairy anus. This issue begs an important question. how do you wipe properly and pass stool cleanly when you have a hair around your anus?
1: Remember Why Hair is There
While neither of our experts disagree that a completely hairless butt may work for some, it’s important to know that a bit of fuzz is what nature intended. In terms of hygiene, hairless skin would be easier to clean. However, it can be uncomfortable, especially in cold weather. And, depending on how much hair you eliminate, you could risk exposing your testicles to extreme cold, and compromise the fertility of your sperm.
2: Trim, Don’t Shave
Hairier bodies create certain hairy grooming situations. If you’re interested in taming the bird’s nest of body hair, do not shave completely. In addition to the circus-level contortion required to safely and effectively shave the region, a completely shaved anus can do more harm than good. Shaving will cause more itching and discomfort as the hair grows back. Instead, go to a professional for help, grooming or at least trying a combination of tools and methods to find one that works for you. Whichever trimmer you choose, be sure to keep it in a separate drawer from the one you use on your face.
3: Moisturize and Condition
Keeping the skin of your freshly trimmed anus is essential to maintaining its health and good looks. Post pooping I recommend using medicated wipes made with witch hazel, which is a popular astringent. The witch hazel can help clean and calm irritated skin, and the moisture is helpful for removing messy bits of poop, or pieces that may have dried onto the skin. Coconut oil can also be helpful. It is a natural antifungal and antibacterial all-in-one and will help hydrate the skin and make sure that bacteria has no chance of developing. Any coconut oil from the store will do. Just make sure to apply it at night so that it can soak in well.
4: The Correct Way To Wipe
The proper wiping technique is important for making sure your anus stays clean, healthy, and functional. The anus skin is protected by natural body oils that keep bacteria and harmful organisms out of your body. Too much wiping can cause skin irritation, open sores, and ultimately leave the area prone to infections from bacteria, anal warts, pinworms, fungus, yeast and parasites. Anything more than three rounds of wiping each time can aggravate the skin. A pass or two with wet toilet paper and to avoid vigorous wiping that may tenderize the area.
5: Mind Your Diet
Bowel movements are based on diet. Diets that include a lot of processed foods and artificial sweeteners tend to promote overall growth of more problematic bacteria. This can lead to poop that is more dangerous to the skin. Likewise, a diet that is low in fiber can lead to an unhealthy balance between good and bad bacteria.
Vegetables will help your poop pass more smoothly. Wiping a lot is usually due to the entire stool not passing in one go, but rather in bits and pieces, and in the worst-case scenario in diarrhea. Adding more vegetables, brown rice, and whole-grains is a good way to get a more solid stool. If you still have messy stools, try to use a bidet to clean, if you have access to one, or a bathtub with an extendable shower-head can do the trick. By cleaning thoroughly with hot water, you can ensure that it is 100 percent clean.
