Bidets stopped me from being Superman
I moved into a new place recently and got a horow bidet toilet. One thing I did not expect was that my hemorrhoid started bothering me a lot less, and I do not see blood nearly as often now.
Before that, sometimes wiping would hurt a lot. I would check the TP after and see some blood on it. Every time that happened, I would hear Batman saying “do u bleed?” in my head. I’m a big BvS fan, so that scene always comes to mind. I guess in this case I’m Superman and my hemorrhoid is Bruce.
Anyway, I’m a pretty hairy guy, so cleaning with toilet paper was always kind of a pain. I had to wipe a lot, and sometimes pretty hard, or I just did not feel fully clean. That obviously was not helping my hemorrhoid either.
Now I use warm water instead and honestly it feels so much better. I do not have to keep wiping again and again, and I am not hurting the hemorrhoid as much. It is still there, of course. I’m not saying the bidet cured it. It just does not get sore or bleed as easily as it used to.
Now I keep telling people how good bidets are. At this point I sound like some guy at a toilet store trying to sell one to everyone I meet.
I still use toilet paper at the end to make sure I’m clean. I wipe from a few different directions until there is nothing on the paper. The main difference now is that the paper is mostly just for checking, instead of doing all the cleaning with it.
