I have occasional bathroom issues caused by food sensitivities (damn your delicious yet toxic nature, nacho cheese).

These bathroom issues involves pooping a bunch of times in one day. The frequent pooping and wiping severely irritate my poor butthole, aggravating hemorrhoids and anal fissures.

I know lots of people around here swear by the miracle of bidets, but before I start shopping around, I’m wondering if there are any naysayers out there who just don’t like bidets, along with why that’s the case.

Bonus question: how do I use a bidet? Most of the instructions I’ve found are a bit delicate about the details. Anyone want to give me a detailed description of how and what to do?

My swollen, bloody anus thanks you.

    I bought a cheap one a while back, and I didn’t like it. It was not a heated model, and I did not enjoy cold water spraying on my butt, especially in the winter.

    At the time, I also had some painful anal issues that I was dealing with. The water pressure on mine felt quite strong and was painful for me.

    I ended up switching to wipes, and they have worked wonderfully for me.
