Does Cheap Toilet Paper Cause Hemorrhoids?

… or just make one’s asshole raw and that’s a separate issue?

I travel a lot for work. No airport spends any money on decent toilet paper. Similarly, the hotels my company usually uses for business also don’t prioritize good TP for their guests’ comfort.

I so look forward to my trusty Charmin Extra by the time I come home it’s not funny. But by then too, the damage is already done.

Last night I tried applying a Prep H suppository for a bit of relief. My husband saw the wrapper in the trash, expressed regret I had “speed bumps” and now won’t top me until I’m recovered.

Help me DL, I can’t be the only one in this situation!

Op, this is my life too. I think tissue harder than charmin will scratch up your ass if you’re not used it.

In fact, I’ve taken Charmin on vacation specifically because of this. The other choices are to wet the tissues before you wipe or applying lotion/Vaseline after wiping.

The ultimate, however, is to use a washlet (bidet), which I installed during the pandemic. It’s amazing!! I bought a portable washlet (squeeze bottle with a hose) for when I travel.

Gays don't buy cheap toilet paper OP.

All the damage your holes get and you have the nerve to blame it on toilet paper?

Hahahahaha!

Punch and delete, OP.

Time to test drive a new model.

Take a roll of Charmin with you when you travel

I have a Dudeswipe toilette in my wallet for when I have to poop in a public place.

Pushing hard while you’re shitting cause hemorrhoids.

Op, have u ever heard of personal wipes ? Premoistened , so soft and wet too. EVERTHING your sore ass dreams of.

by Anonymousreply 8February 23, 2023 11:05 PM

Your ass is likely a bit bloody because the rough tissue has scratched it up, not because of hemorrhoids.

I mean, the quality of toilet paper has certainly taken a nosedive since the pandemic, but we really don't need to be discussing this in great detail like this either.

Maybe Hemorrhoid surgery. A family member of mine had it, and he said he feels much better.

by Anonymousreply 11February 23, 2023 11:56 PM

No, but it can irritate existing hemorrhoids or cause a diaper rash of sorts.

Charmin. Nothing else will do.

Just don't buy Quilted Northern. They're owned by Koch.

Forget toilet paper, residents in Middle Eastern countries wipe with left hand, then wash hand with soap and water. You Tree Huggers will be saving the environment.

R14, those are shithole countries, with shit on their left hands.

This is true?? I'll add it to my list: I'm already boycotting Goya foods.

It's true, R16. I'd wipe my ass with tree bark before I'd give the Koch cunts one penny.

Take a spray bottle filled with distilled water and tissues. Spray your asshole and wipe it clean. Stop bitching about such easily solvable issues

r16, Quilted Northern is owned by Georgia-Pacfic, a Koch-owned company. You can boycott everything they come out with.

I have a washlet bidet, which saves me a bundle on TP. So I can buy a really good brand and also less hemmies. Sitting a lot also makes the piles bad, I'm way too young to have my own tube of Prep H.

I think you probably need to hire a professional with an industrial power washer. Go out in the front yard, lay face down ass up and let the man do what's he's paid to do.

Periodically you should wash your anus with witch hazel to perform a nerve test.

Gonna work backwards, in batches. First off:

[quote] Periodically you should wash your anus with witch hazel to perform a nerve test

What does witch hazel do to one’s asshole?? Is it the same as if I used Bactjne or tincture of merthiolate?

For all those recommending a bidet… YES! I forgot to include that in my travels, I’ve seen 3 different types of bidets:

1) The Toto Washlet is amazing! Hubs and I first encountered it in Tokyo. Once we figured out how to use it, we included it in our long-term bathroom renevation plans at home.

2) The hotel I stay at in Buenos Aires may be dated, so no Toto Washlet. But they have one of the old fashioned (for lack of a better term) Fountain type bidets where the water comes up from the basin one squats over, and then there’s another faucet that is supposed to flush the basin clean. It’s great except for the cold/hot titration that is necessary because there are two handles for it.

3) most useless version is the lazy bidet which has some horizontally-installed “droopy” faucet I guess one is supposed to squat over and splash water up into the dirty parts? Never have tried it, no interest.

No it does not but I would never go to your house or apartment if you have low rent toilet paper.

I buy cheap toilet paper and I haven’t had an issue. I also use baby wipes because I don’t have. A bidet.

My asshole is cast iron. I could probably use sandpaper and I'd be fine.

Pity is, I'm a top. I have Colossus from the Marvel Movies' hole and absolutely no use for it.

by Anonymousreply 28February 24, 2023 4:47 AM

I think baby wipes maybe can if they aren't high quality, the chemicals on them I sometimes find irritating.

by Anonymousreply 29February 24, 2023 4:50 AM

Bring your own TP and portable bidet with you. You can get the squeezy bidet or one that is electric and charges via USB.

My family is a bunch of toilet paper snobs. My mother had to take care of my grandma & temporarily live with her for a time, & brought our Charmin Blue rolls with her, since Grandma only had Charmin Red (one-ply). They got into the biggest argument about it.

Around that time Charmin had a green label, 3ply, but I think they discontinued it.

What's stealth about it?

The nice thing about a washlet is that all it entails is changing the toilet seat. If you want the ones that spray hot water and heat the seat, you need an electrical outlet nearby (we had to get one installed)

It really does feel like a trip to the spa

I use my hand to wipe my ass after making doo doos.
