Avoid Prolonged Sitting on Toilet

for Haemorrhoids

Limiting toilet time to under 5 minutes and avoiding phone use on the toilet to reduce sustained anal pressure.

How it works

Prolonged sitting on the toilet increases venous pressure in the anal cushions by reducing venous return. Short toilet visits significantly reduce haemorrhoid development and aggravation.

What to watch for

Simple habit change with no side effects. Effective as both prevention and treatment.
