Especially because poop is really just our body pretty much composting what is left over from our food. Dirt is actually similar to poop, it's plant poop which is just basically fine particles of dead plants and other things. Poop makes the world go round whether we like it or not. Some mushrooms literally grow in poop (which is why I always cut off the stem).

Also, I somehow seemed to have trained my body to go in the morning before I shower which is a massive help.

The one time I saw a specialist a couple years ago they told me I was in great bottom health and that “all I have” is a small internal hemorrhoid and that it was to small to do anything about and then I was rushed out the door. No good conversation like this. He made me feel embarrassed for even complaining cause he’s seen so much worse. But this keeps me up at night, it bothers me all day at work, it’s my birthday today and Im watching KZread videos for relief. So it’s not a small thing to me.

I once mentioned to him that I had hemorrhoids and he immediately jumped in with, "yeah, I got 'em too", that just made the topic so much more relatable. I mentioned to him my growing bald spot and he immediately pointed to his own and said "yeah, welcome to the club!". We had a good laugh as he related his experiences with Minoxidil, etc. So get a new doctor you feel comfortable with and can relate to.

Sometimes I would also clog toilets because of how much toilet paper I was using to try to get all the way clean, and if anyone knows that one Parks & Rec clip about wiping your butt feeling like wiping a marker, where it just keeps going and going, that clip is so relatable.

Skid marks are disgusting and totally avoidable. After initial wiping, move over and sit on your sink or the edge of the bathtub, and reach back to wash your butthole under a stream of running water. Work a finger inside your starfish up to the first knuckle until the "greasy" feeling is gone. I've been wiping this way for over 20 years and never had a skidmark since. Obviously this isn't always practical away from home. I usually take some moistened paper towels into the stall if I have to use a public toilet. Also beware of weight limits for sinks.

I totally appreciate your candor. It's not shameful or dirty - it's just biological functioning! Most were only taught toileting hygiene briefly as little children. When we are young our bm is a certain consistency, our musculature is young and strong and we don't have body hair in those areas. While we might learn about puberty no one really readdresses the subject of BM hygiene and most people aren't going to ask. I think too, we have to adapt our hygiene as we age. Pregnancy, muscle laxity, injuries all change how that area is functioning and changing shape. Now factor in the differences of the diet. If you eat something greasy, your poop is going to be greasy and smeary and sticky to clean up. It's all just a part of living.

My career as a geologist has taken me to every continent except Antarctica. Very early on, I realized that there were two types of people in the world, those who loved bidet showers, aka ‘bum guns’ (small hose-mounted showers operated by a trigger fitted next to the toilet), and those who had never tried them. Why the West hasn’t adopted these simple devices is beyond my comprehension. The water jet cleans you perfectly, and the lightly dabbed the toilet paper dries you off. No need for the ‘technique’ that you describe in the video, Doc. Perfect cleanliness each time.

Duuuude. You really are a super hero. It's seriously the explanation I kept searching for but no one addresses

Thank you for addressing this basic hygiene that most of us were never instructed in. Parents can simply show this video to their children. There are some guys who refuse to wear underwear; they should know that "skid marks" are why. Those marks should never be on clothing, only on underwear! I'm sending this video to one of those guys myself. Again, thanks for addressing this ignorance and educating all of us.

I started washing my rear many years ago after going as it is the only way to really clean up plus it saves a ton of paper and butt-friction. This works with my morning schedule so fortunately I can use my own bathroom. I think that merely wiping is not really being clean. But great advice here for people who still do that. I can't imagine running around doing my daily activities with a poo-smeared rear-end though.

Thanks so much for tackling a fundamental function that people don't feel comfortable talking about. I've come back to leave a comment after watching this video a few weeks ago. Trying your technique has made an amazing difference in the overall health of my bottom end. I never realized that there was a gentler way of cleaning myself and if my bottom end could speak it would say thanks. Who knew?

Thank you. I appreciate your frankness about this subject. I understand exactly what you are saying and now I know why I have problems and how to fix them. To those who don't want the "skid marks", try the wet (aka "baby") wipes as the last phase of wiping and you will probably eliminate them, as the doctor indicates at the beginning.

On the contrary doctor this needs to be said thank you very much and wishing you and family all the best in life

I added a bidet to my toilet several years ago. It's wonderful. I don't know why more people don't use them. They can be found on Amazon, at Home Depot, and everywhere for around fifty bucks. I heard a good analogy: spread peanut butter in two places on a concrete driveway. Clean one off with paper towels and use a hose to clean the other. I rest my case.

You were so open and I can’t tell you how thankful I am to you that I found this video. I thought something was wrong with me 😂 I knew I was wiping well, and would sometimes over wipe, but sometime later I would feel uncomfortable! Thank you so much for this video!!!

Thank you Prof you would not realize how many of us you help with this video. Stay blessed

I love Dr Chung he’s so real, he comes across so well on such a personal subject,haha. Thank you Dr, you’re very funny, 😂 at the same time you’re giving us great information.

I appreciate the humor and vulnerability of this man. What a hero!!!

Well , I had no idea what was causing my burning sensation after a bowel movement an hour or so later . Thank you so very much for your humorous way to explain things 😊

Try using a padol cup/ Large watering cup I seen a video they use in vietnam. Wash with warm water and a tiny bit of soap on your wiping finger or do quick hop in shower. You will feel so great. I would wipe forever, but you can still have a little that edges out and makes it itch. that is why I love bidets when I am lucky enough. not all poops are created equal. My vary wayyy too much!

So I have to say that after watching this, I was REALLY skeptical about Dr. Chung's method. But after having done this for a couple of weeks now, I can 100% say it's game changing. I haven't had any more issues with anal fissures or with dryness and itchiness. I am so grateful, Dr. Chung!

I wish I knew about Dr. Chung years ago! I'm just learning a lot today after discovering this channel. Thank you, THANK YOU for sharing your wisdom with us!!!

When you were a kid, i bet you wanted to “make a difference”. I’m here to tell you…you are making a huge difference in countless lives. Mine for example, every time i went to bathroom and I would dig for gold trying to make it where i wouldn’t need to go wipe later a few hours…I was causing bleeding to happen. Then I would pray to get constipated so that way I wouldn’t have to deal with the mess. I have had multiple hemorrhoids over the years, and currently still have 2 internal ones (that i know of). Thank you thank you thank you. Seriously from the bottom of my heart, thank you. For explaining that this whole time, I was normal and that it’s expected. I don’t have to beat myself up for being a “dirty” person. Thank you, you changed my life. I know that had to be hard for you to make a video about that, so I’m telling you, it made a HUGE difference in my life. Thank you!

Great topic! Hygiene is always very personal and differs from person to person based on their preferences, and body to body. Yes, you wipe until you don’t see any more fecal matter on the tissue… but that is not the end of the story, or the wiping for that matter, and here is why. As the doctor said, if you are pooping dry, those are pretty much a one-and-done, granted. However, if your poop is tarry, mushy, runny, and not solid, not only are you going to wipe immediately after, you should check and wipe multiple times afterward, at about one-hour intervals. The exception is diarrhea because in this type of involuntary discharge, your body is forcibly expelling as much as it can via your colon and much of it is being carried and cleansed via water. Hence, you might have noticed during this temporary condition, you’re toilet paper reading or indicator is clean with the first wipe following a case of diarrhea. The body’s natural enema. Most times, although you initially wiped the anus clean, usually there is more stuck inside the rectum waiting to be expelled, which it does through capillary actions of the colon and rectum on their own, but also helped by normal body movements following your bowel movement, and gravity as the doctor indicated. With these two combined actions, you are more so than not, going to have additional poop to wipe clean. So, to ensure that you get it all, and not have the remaining remnants of your stool wind up on your underwear, you should wipe again about an hour later, and while the stool is still moist. At that hour mark, if there are no remnants, then you are good to go for the rest of your day, normally. And, of course, as the doctor indicated, some people’s anus’ are very sensitive to wiping with toilet paper that irritates their anus, so with these sensitive folks, try using moist wipes to reduce the friction. Again, great subject, doc! 😊

Hey Fred, that sure is some rant you got going on there. But I have to point out that you’re totally wrong about the way our body excretes waste and evacuates the bowel. There is absolutely ZERO capillary action occurring, for several reasons. 😱Most obvious is that faecel matter isn’t anywhere near liquid enough, nor is the viscosity low enough to allow for capillary action to occur, unless you’re essentially pissing out of your arse. 🤯 The colon and bowels work primarily via peristalsis and air pressure. 🤨Think of shit kind of like semi-congealed blood; once blood has started to congeal and lumps/solid bits have started to form, this blood will no longer be able to use capillary action 😂🎉🎉 there isn’t a complete seal. The liquid must seal with the capillary or the process doesn’t happen. It’s like saying that vomit could somehow use capillary action when there’s no possibility for anything remotely solid and/or chunky to use capillary action. This is the same as what happens when one evacuates their bowel, unless they completely liquid faecal matter. 💩

Genuinely interesting. Appreaciating a ton it ended in my feed as, I don’t know about you, but I don’t find myself googling the stuff.

This is the best video on the internet I never laughed so hard your honesty is contagious!

Thank you so much. I found your forum via serendipity. I love that YOU love proctology. I love your courage. I love your humor. I love your enthusiasm in sharing what you go through so we don't feel so alone. Thank you.

Dr. Chung I love you! Your honest but real. These are the issues that I deal with everyday with hemorrhoids.

Thank you Thank you Thank you Dr Chung We need more people like you normalizing talk about something every human body does. ❤

Doc, you are hilarious. Your patients are lucky to have you as their doctor.

Dr. Chung your directness, openness, and honesty is so refreshing. I appreciate your style and energy. Absolutely fantastic presentations, explanations, and overall channel. Thank you thank you thank you.

Ha! Had to check this out, and it doesn’t disappoint. Solid advice. Thank you, good doctor sir.

Doc this was great! Lots of education, lots of laughs! Nailed it right on the money with this, thank you!

What a great video and totally transparent!! I'm still laughing as any of us who have or still working in healthcare, we find humor in various body activities that are completely normal. I have had a few thromboses hemorrhoids, which are quite painful. Some diet changes and making sure I do not sit all day, has made a huge difference. Haven't seen my surgeon in over 10 years. Honestly, you addressed many questions we all desire the answer to.

Well that was an amazing video Doc, I really enjoyed it and found it very informative. I have no idea how it got in my feed but it was awesome lol..kinda funny but quite educational. Im only used to doctors asking me uncomfortable and embarrassing questions. I never expected a professional such as yourself to be so open, vulnerable and honest about themself. Im definitely subbing to your channel. Im sure you help untold numbers of people here on KZread. Currently (knock on wood) I'm not experiencing any issues in this area but this video might keep it that way. Well done, and I'm wishing you clean drawers and no skid marks! lol. 😊

Good job, doctor. It's too bad we live in a society where you're expected to pretend not to have a body that has necessary functions, including elimination. Look at the lack of public restrooms across the US... Good down-to-earth advice in this video and I'm glad you made it.

You have a great personality to discuss this issue

I am very happy to have found an expert to talk about this area and to clarify issues that made me feel guilty. Society has made us feel that skid marks shows that a person does not take proper care. But I noticed that sometimes depending on the texture one cannot avoid skid marks. After this video I now understand the issue and my butt. Thank you doctor.

Thank you, doctor! I just want to support you. Yes, it's embarrassing to talk about this, because the topic is very intimate, but it's our HEALTH! Also, I think that people who watch this video are mature enough not to giggle.

Ok Dude you are funny to the point and explain a lot of things that nobody talks about. I am 68 now and for years I have had all the above mentioned conditions. You explained and answered a lot I didn't know. Fishers where the worst and I would wipe with wet tissue paper as not knowing what to do. Fishers healed, hemorrhoids seemed to be healed. Thanks for the info, great job.

Saw the title and JUST HAD to check it out haha I'm 50 so after all these years of wiping my own booty, I can't imagine changing my style to what you described. I wipe both ways. If you only wipe downward, you're pushing it down to the "taint" area. So you must wipe upward too, to get that lower area clean. Thankfully my daily poops are like clockwork - after 2 cups of coffee. I poop, go downstairs and workout and then take another poop, and jump in the shower before work. And in the shower with soap and water, I clean the whole crack and bootyhole area. I'm clean as a whistle down there .... as long I don't have to poop a 3rd time (after shower), which is what happened once I got into work this morning. Not clean as a whistle anymore. UGH. I hate that. Anyway, thank you for keeping it real & keeping it funny, Dr. Chung!

Honestly when it comes to cleanliness, there is no worse feeling than a dirty booty. Honestly I can get paint on myself or covered in mud all day. It still feels better than getting skid marks. Thankfully I don't need the toilet often, though I also don't eat often. I much prefer drinks, and I can get all my energy, vitamins and minerals from a single meal.

Thanks doc. This way is a winner. 1: fold 5 pieces of TP. I fold 2-ply 3 layers thick. 2: slightly dampen half of two of them (just wet fingertips with water and tap until slightly damp). Fold again to double the strength of the dampened wipes. You’ll figure out after a couple tries exactly how much to dampen. 3) Use two of the dry wipes to get the big stuff. 4) use the two dampened wipes to really clean the area 5) use the last dry wipe for final pass to clean/dry. Normal poop messes will be totally clean. You feel so ‘clean’ with this method. You also don’t have to buy wet wipes. It’s so strange how everyone uses dry TP. You would never do gardening work, wipe your dirty hands with some dry tissue paper and feel that’s good enough! Why do we think it’s fine to wipe our butts that way?

@infinitedeath1384

I have more bulk than you, so unfortunately I end up using a whole roll, sometimes 2 or more if it's very messy. I fold them the same way you do. Once most of it is gone, I use wet wipes until I don't see any brown stain on the wipes. Then I wash my hands with soap, dry them, use a wipe to clean around my buttocks just in case, and use one last wipe on my booty hole just in case (and yes there's been a stain in the just in case situation, in which case I would continue wiping until there's no stain). Then when I'm clean, I use toilet paper to dry and I'm good to go. Oftentimes I like to have a shower, especially in summer when all that moving around makes you sweaty.

Interesting topic. No skid marks for me. I was grew up in Italy, so after wiping I learned to wash my rear with a bidet. Now in the USA, I use a short bucket on a stool as a bidet. Or I go number 2 before taking a shower. Last time I had underwear with a skid mark was in my childhood. In Italy by building code bathrooms must have a bidet.

I know it's embarrassing, I know it's uncomfortable, I know it's funny, but it is good to hear all of this coming from a Proctologist. Maybe some people were taught the wrong way or come may be under wiping or some over wiping. Now we all know the right way to wipe. Dry poops though area cleaner for wiping are unhealthy poops. The messy wipings are healthy poops. Glad I'm on the healthy side. Keep up the great with the great info.
