    The normal bowel movement time is about 3 minutes.

    Squatting on the toilet for long periods of time can have these hazards:

    1. Leg numbness. The most direct injury is leg numbness, squatting in the toilet for too long, blood circulation is blocked for a long time, and when the oxygen supply to neuronal cells is insufficient, it will lead to numbness of some nerves, such as leg numbness;

    It will also cause insufficient blood supply to the head and lower limbs, causing blood to flow downward, resulting in insufficient blood supply to the brain, which is the reason why the head will be dizzy after squatting for a long time.

    2. Constipation. Squatting in the toilet for a long time is definitely not because of love, but because there are many distracting things that stumble on your feet, such as mobile phones and newspapers.

    Reading the newspaper and playing with your mobile phone while squatting on the toilet can greatly distract the person who has a bowel movement. When distracted, bowel movements become very laborious, resulting in sluggish or no bowel movements. Convenience is precious, and once you miss it, you don't know when the next time will be.

    In addition, inhibiting the urge to defecate will cause the conditioned reflex to defecate to disappear, and this will artificially create constipation for a long time.

    3. Induce hemorrhoids.

    Modern medical research has confirmed that squatting in the toilet for more than 3 minutes can directly lead to rectal varicose vein congestion, which in turn induces hemorrhoids, and the longer the squatting time, the more serious the disease.

    Therefore, friends who like to read books or mobile phones in the toilet may need to pay more attention, and it is best to set an alarm clock for yourself when squatting in the toilet, so as not to "covet" this moment.

    In addition, if the anus is congested, it is easy to cause a kind of misleading to the nervous system, giving false bowel instructions to the central nervous system, making the anus feel swollen for a long time. Prolonged bowel movements are also a factor that predisposes to diseases such as rectal prolapse.

    4. "Drug abuse".

    Squatting in the toilet for too long will inhale toxic gases, and the body and toxic substances will form a closed space, so that the toxic gases will enter our body through the cavity, and in severe cases, it may cause anitis, cervical cancer and other diseases. Therefore, bowel movements should be "short, flat and fast" to reduce the entry of toxic substances into the body.

    5. Women are prone to trichomoniasis vaginitis.

    The toilet looks relatively clean on the surface, but in fact it hides dirt and dirt, and the cleaning frequency is far from keeping up with the frequency of use. Due to the particularity of the female reproductive system, prolonged squatting in the pit exposes the intimate parts to a polluted environment, which is more susceptible to gynecological diseases, and trichomoniasis vaginitis is the most likely disease.
