Before a lot of food is eaten, people are divided into sweet and salty parties and start fighting. When they leave the body, the method of cleaning will give birth to more factions.
Everyone is familiar with the skill of wiping buttocks, but in terms of specific operations, whether to use tapping or wiping, from front to back or from left to right, everyone has different habits.

shrinks like a drawstring pocket
Before practicing the most scientific method of wiping the buttocks, let’s first have a general understanding of the structure of the chrysanthemum. Most people may not have the opportunity to take a close look at their ass (and it is not necessary), but only by knowing the dead spots of hygiene can we do a good job of cleaning.
The structure of the anus as an exit is similar to that of the entrance, that is, the lips. The inner wall of the anal canal inside the anus is mucous membrane (similar to the oral mucosa), and the outside is skin (like the skin around the mouth). There are many apocrine glands and hairs around the anus, and the apocrine glands can secrete sweat.
Because the location is relatively hidden, the chrysanthemum has little light and poor ventilation. It is in a humid and hot environment all year round, and it also needs to face the process of opening the gate several times a day to once a few days. Compared with the entrance where you often enjoy delicious food and then have lip balm or lipstick to serve, this exit is indeed “chrysanthemum life is hard”.
The anal canal mucosa is surrounded by muscle groups (inner and outer anal sphincters). The pulling effect of muscle contraction keeps the anus tightly closed at ordinary times, and when it relaxes, the outlet opens, and it can be tightened even more by contracting with extra force.

Why is cleaning so difficult?
Under such a structure of the chrysanthemum, if the excrement is strip-shaped, dry and does not stick to the wall, then it should be a small circle that needs to be cleaned after the chrysanthemum shrinks. According to Jackie Chan’s famous principle of wiping butt and saving paper, theoretically a piece of paper can achieve the purpose of cleaning (if it is not broken).
However, in many cases, the stool is soft, brittle and sticky, and it will adhere to the places it passes evenly or unevenly like putty when it slides out, including the stretched folds and the surrounding hairs. In the end, it may be because the drop is not timely, a small piece of residue sticks to other places with the anus clipping, just like pursing the lips after applying lipstick, leaving traces everywhere, which brings great trouble to the cleaning work . Not only do you have to clean the small circle in the center, but you also have to clean up the hair in the retracted folds and on the sides. If you don’t grasp it well, you may touch your hands, which adds some trouble and a lot of emotions.
Not to mention that when you have diarrhea, the stool gushes out when the anus is opened like a frangipani, or like water spit out when gargling, splashing everywhere, dots or rivers downstream.
As we grow older, there is a high possibility of hemorrhoids, a very common pathological change. Prolapse of internal hemorrhoids and skin tags of external hemorrhoids will cause more folds and gaps . In case some cauliflower-like protrusions grow on it, it will increase the difficulty of cleaning.
If the cleaning work is not done well, the smell is a trivial matter, and waste underwear is not a big problem, but the damage to the delicate mucous membrane and skin of the chrysanthemum caused by these residual feces may cause local skin itching, dermatitis, and even aggravate hemorrhoids or other anal ulcers. week sickness. It not only affects physical health, but also brings an unspeakable psychological burden.

male wipes buttocks, splits
So how to clean up the most scientific and clean? Considering that the structure of men and women is slightly different, the following are explained separately, first of all, the relatively simple cleaning methods for men:
The first step is to keep the anus exposed, you can squat, sit or buttocks, and then relax the perianal muscles to keep the anus opening.
In the second step, the manipulator reaches the target area from behind. If it is carried out from the front of the body, the paper may touch the protruding part on the way of being stained with feces and retracted, causing the pollution area to further expand.
The third step is to wipe from the clean area to the contaminated area according to the principles of medical cleaning and disinfection. Therefore, it is possible to wipe from the outer circumference to the center without splashing. The movement of human fingers retracting and making a fist is exquisite and powerful, which can perform this task perfectly, but the force of extending outward is slightly weaker, and it is difficult to wipe in all directions with one hand.
Therefore, it is recommended to take the relaxed anus as the center of the circle, the right hand is responsible for rubbing the left semicircle, and the left hand is responsible for rubbing the right semicircle. If you’re gifted or can do it with one hand after a long period of practice, that’s great.

In the fourth step, repeat the previous step with a paper towel until there is no obvious residue to the naked eye. If you have wet toilet paper at home, you can replace it with wet toilet paper to clean the inside of the folds. The softness of dry paper towels is not good, and when the small folds are forcibly opened, it is easy to cause mechanical damage to the delicate mucous membrane of the chrysanthemum, while wet toilet paper is softer and more deformable, and has better cleaning power for small crevices.
The fifth step, wait for a while, and wait for the chrysanthemum to dry naturally before putting on the pants.
After pulling the feces that will stick to the wall, wipe them with dry paper towels and then wet toilet paper, and you may see this change process. I thought it was clean, but there is still a little bit left | Tu Chong Creative
Feminine Cleaning, Front to Back
For women, things are a little more complicated. There are vaginal opening and urethral opening in front of the chrysanthemum exit. Women are likely to urinate at the same time when they defecate, and the urethral opening is not protruding outward like men, but is relatively hidden. Urine is very easy to splash on the surrounding skin and hair. In order of susceptibility to infection, urethra>vagina>anal canal, therefore, on the anterior cleaning route, it is strongly recommended that women wipe from front to back. Considering that when the handle is sent from front to back, not only the hand may not be long enough, but also urine or menstrual blood that has not been wiped may touch the arm, which is slightly inconvenient. Therefore, it is recommended to clean in two stages: The first segment, the urethral opening and vaginal opening area. Urine wiping is relatively simple, just press and dry the urethral opening with a paper towel. If menstrual blood needs to be wiped during the menstrual period, it is better to wipe from the urethral opening to the vaginal opening. The second paragraph, the chrysanthemum area. This part of the cleaning method is similar to that of men, with the chrysanthemum as the center, indented from the outer circumference to the center of the circle, and the same five steps are enough. The above content is suitable for most people’s chrysanthemum cleaning. If you have already used an intelligent automatic flushing, drying, and music-playing toilet, you can throw the above content into your knowledge base. If the chrysanthemum is seriously ill, the delicate buttocks may not be able to adapt to wiping, and you need to follow the doctor’s advice to take a medicinal bath, cool air to dry, and apply medicine, etc. Advanced care, then the above content is a small gift for recovery . Regardless of health or disease, complete or incomplete, you must take good care of your chrysanthemum.
