JohannoShit faint
You're pushing too hard. You should breathe through it, don't hold your breath. Look into getting a step for your feet. We're designed to squat, not sit, and getting your feet higher can get things to line up better internally
all-knight-partyI just squat on the toilet seat straight up, if I'm at home. It helps, it really does, I swear by squatting
JaffaBoyAt work they had to put signs up to tell all the Indian workers who came to the UK not to do this as they were always breaking the loo seats! Better to get a step for your feet and get those angles better aligned.
Interesting, I've done it my whole life and have never broken anything, but I also weigh about 115 pounds, so my method is not for everyone, haha.
Also, pushing too hard (and shitting for too long) are great ways to get hemorrhoids.
It may be linked to the vagal nerve. Talk to a doctor about it.
It’s called situational syncope. Don’t push so hard. If it keeps happening see your doctor.
Do you have a chiari malformation? This can be one of my triggers for head pain
This is the danger of going 3 days without pooping
Why is this in Showerthoughts?
Shower shitter confirmed
There was a shower in the room when the post was created.
aaron_griffinBlood pressure
I coughed so hard today I almost fainted as well.
probably blood pressure.
Vagal tone, is the technical answer. A nerve (vagus) runs through your body and, among other things, slows the heart. When straining to “void”, you cause that nerve to activate more strongly. It’s also related to the Valsalva maneuver.
The Menemen!Not so fun story: when I did my civil service in a hospital I once was called in a room from a patient, because the other patient from that room didn’t come out of the toilet. I foind her in the toilet. She had a stroke White pushing really hard. She had asked for a laxative for days, but the physicians didn’t want to giver her one (don’t know ow why).
Tl;dr: Don’t push till you faint!
Don’t shit so hard my guy, you’re going to give yourself a prolapse with that sort of behaviour
