      Sometimes it helps sometimes it doesn’t. Usually if I sit straight up with my legs wide And do my breathing I can usually get it out sometimes I do circles on the toilet but I do use the squatty potty to help too. I do have underline issues however.

    The stool basically changed the way I use the toilet. I get it done in about 10 seconds flat now instead of 15 to 20 minutes of groaning, straining and fighting my own body. Also no more hemorrhoids the size of ping pong balls. Any stool roughly 9 inches in height for a 16 inch in height toilet will work out fine.

    I wish you were closer Dr. Chung. 2,530 miles is a tad far to drive. I am having my first-ever issue in "the back passage" area right now. I'm 57 and have never had issues until now. A lump of swollen tissue has come up next to my anus or rectum. It is visible and can be felt when wiping/washing, etc. It is not painful, but is uncomfortable. Not knowing exactly what it is, creates ongoing anxiety. This all started in mid-September and has continued to worsen/enlarge/protrude. Again, I wish you were closer to me. I live in Clearwater, Florida. So thankful to have found your informative channel. Thanks, Austin Wiser ;-)

    I had gastric bypass ruined my back in 2004. 4 feet of my intestines were removed. In general I don’t have problems with constipation but after surgery and now I’m to major diet change, I get severe constipation. That is very difficult to resolve. Do you think that the Roux-en-Y surgery has something to do with constipation being very difficult to deal with?

      I have a gastric sleeve, and spent the first two years severely constipated. I had to use enemas every time. I got a Squatty Potty, and it definitely helps. For me, I was also in a vicious cycle with dehydration and using anti-emetics added to very slow gastric transit.
