Can't stop wiping myself after bathroom

I am not sure why people are telling you its nasty. What is nasty is walking around with a shitty asshole. In Europe they have bidets so they can get their asses nice and clean. The concept of wiping your ass with dry toilet paper and thinking you're going to be clean is ridiculous. Showering is the best way to have a clean ass but the wipes are a good second best. I don't use wipes but what I do is wet some toilet paper and soap it up with liquid soap and clean the asshole inside and out with a soapy one then one just wet with no soap. Alternating until there is no shit on the paper. Then I dry the asshole. Its great to have a clean asshole and asscrack, don't let anyone tell you that you're not normal.

i know, i hav the same problem dude, my parents are always mad at me 4 usin too much toilet paper

I can never get a proper clean either. I hate it. Now I actually only poo once a day and do it right before I shower, so I can get a proper clean :-D

I'm a girl, and back when I ate meat, I found my ass hard to wipe. Baby wipes are a good idea, but don't flush too many at once! It will clog the pipes. Also, make sure they biodegrade. Since I turned veggie, no probs. Although sometimes it looks more like compost than crap =op

o.o well least im not alone it sucks x.x and um i do take a shower---is worth it to me i like to be clean not dirty smell like cr@p all day no thanx

You're not wiping hard enough, or with the proper system.

Go from the middle and make sure the hole is clear. Then wipe around the vicinity until you see nothing else. Make sure to apply moderate pressure throughout.

There's nothing wrong with showering.

I used to have this problem all the time untill I made an effort to eat more fibre. You want to build up to about 25g a day. One piece of wholemeal bread has got 3.2g. After a about 2 weeks of this I was pooing at 5pm every day and actually did a ghost poo 2 days on the trot. But I have noticed since then that even while on a high fibre diet, if I eat a shit load of chocolate I'll do a sticky poo any way.

PS
A ghost poo is where, not only is there nothing on the paper after wiping but the poo comes out in such a perfect, solid, single piece and at such a healthy speed that it goes round the S bend all by it self. There is no evidence it ever happened. But it did, didn't it?... Spooky!

That's normal. I do that all the time My reason is because I don't want my ass to stink like shit when me and my girlfriend are getting it on. If I can't get all the fecal matter off with toilet paper, I use a wet rag. Works every time.

i think whats happening is that you are wiping soo hard you are going up your ass hole and touching poop that didnt come out yet. wipe soft and use hypoallergenic baby wipes they are 97 cents at walmart for a box

This is definitely OCD related. You might want to see a therapist. I mean really....Seriously! You might turn into another Howard Hughes if you let this go on.

This happens to me all the time and I don't want to wast a whole roll of toilet paper for one siting. I try to moist the toilet paper then wipe. It helps sometimes

I have the solution !!!!!! 47 year old male. About 2 months ago I started a new medication for joint pain --- not an antibiotic like I've read on other web pages -- many people mentioned that they felt it was the recent use of an antibiotic that caused them to have this issue. Could be, I guess everyones body reacts differently to medications. But the point of my rambling is that I started having this issue when I started this new medication for joint pain. My BM's were like peanut butter. I had to wipe multiple times to get clean, to the point of some bleeding. Before I left for work I would put a folded up paper towel in my crack and would have to wipe and change it out 2-3 times throughout the day. I was at the point of scheduling an appointment with a colon and rectal surgeon. Also, I have bad eating habits and eat a lot of junk food and hardly any veggies or fruits. If it's good for you then I don't like it. So after reading some websites I decided to try fiber before making a doctor appointment. I ordered the Kirklands (Costco) Fiber Capsules 100% Natural Psyllium Husk Fiber through Amazon and received them yesterday afternoon. I took 5 last night and another 5 this morning. This afternoon when I got home from work I had my first solid BM in 2 months! Seriously, when I was on the toilet and heard the turd plop in the toilet water it startled me because I hadn't heard that in so long. I only had to wipe twice and I was clean. While I'm not thrilled about taking a bunch of pills a couple of times a day I'll gladly do it if it continues to solve the problem.

It's actually because you have a wetter poo (lol), so it could be because you eat too much oil/watery stuff.

I am glad I'm not the only one. I have had this problem my whole life. Call me crazy, but I think our "systems" might not be shaped to adequately expel every last bit of "stuff". (?)

It's so perplexing. For me, one poo out of 10 is an easy wipe. (Like... there's practically nothing on the paper at all). but usually ... yeah ... I could wipe all day. ... so annoying.

I don't think this problem is exactly "normal" ... I have had a few girlfriends who were ... pretty spotless "up there". (I digress ... I guess I was lucky to have the experience...)

I will shock some people, but I, personally have tried a little shot of water. (yeah .. like a small enema) .. to "free up" the "remainders". (How's THAT for abnormal?!)

..and ... it works ... extremely well. Of course you'll have to warm up to the idea.. and if you get up the nerve, you'll have to experiment... I use a little plastic water bottle with a squeeze tip. (more gasps from the audience I hear...) Just a couple of ounces does the trick. .. immediately.

I have heard that some municipal water supplies are bad for such endeavors. (Did I hear L.A.?... ) but I use ours and I have never had a problem. (over 8 years .. maybe twice a week...)

Best of luck.

OK, I have had this same problem. And the toilet paper just exasserbates the problem because it breaks apart and leaves bits of tp all over my ass. This is especially the case at work, because they buy the cheap costco tp. So what I do is moisten a sheet of paper towel(the tp would disintegrate if you used it) and wipe with that, then pat dry with another sheet of paper towel. I used to have a japanese toilet seat that we hooked up to the water line into the toilet and electrical as well. The seat stayed warm and when you pressed a little button on the side of it, a tube would come from the back of the seat and would direct a stream of magical warm water right on my ass. It had 3 pressure setting and even had a setting for women to clean their vag (the tube would move a little farther out). I have been thinking of a way to get that back from my ex because a new one is about $1500. I feel for you brother!

Maybe try Activia so you're regular (it really does work). If you're constipated or not going fully there might be some stuff left behind or poking out.

Also, you could try pushing lightly on the area before your asshole but behind your balls...if there's any poo hanging out you will be pressing behind it and it will move its way out lol.

But wet wipes are cool too :).

what a weird subject. I would feel that way sometimes. What I wound up doing is taking three sheets of tp and folding them so they were one square large, than fold THAT over once. I'd take a second three sheets and repeat that. The first sheet, I would wet and RUN OVER a wet bar of soap so it was now soapy. I would place that on the dry sheets and quickly wipe myself. I would do this twice or until the paper was clean. Then I'd use a three sheet setup, only making it simply wet, w/o soap to rinse, then use dry paper. It uses less paper than it sounds like. But even if it used a bit more, so what? The point is to be clean, not to save money on toilet paper.

Or have a kid. After the first two years, you'll be totally immune to poo!

Of course it matters that you're male. You can't expect to have a clean floor if it there is wall-to-wall. Get a bidet in your home so you can shampoo that hairy hole each time, my friend! Floats dirt and stain -
Right down the drain!

I think that pushing forward may be onto something

its normal to want to be clean as someone wlse said get sum wipes

Get yourself some personal/baby wet-wipes.

I changed my attitude towards it because of my boyfriend. if he likes anal stimulation and actually to my mind it ain't just for gay men .. why not? and you know, i like it!
