For some people, sitting on the toilet is prime downtime to relax and scroll through the smartphone. That’s not good for the health of your bunghole, according to Dr. Joseph Salhab. Also known as “The Stomach Doc,” Salhab says spending prolonged time on the can increases your risk of developing hemorrhoids, especially if you’re doing a little bit of straining while you’re doing your doody. The good doctor also recommends using a footstool to elevate your feet for a more productive and effective evacuation experience.
