Lucknow. In the modern lifestyle, smartphones have become such a part of our habits that now people have started taking them to the toilet. What we consider a normal and harmless habit is actually proving to be extremely dangerous for our ‘pelvic health’. According to health experts, you don’t realize when 10 to 15 minutes of time passes by using the phone while sitting on the toilet seat, but it creates unnecessary and harmful pressure on the lower parts of the body.
According to experts, the design of the toilet seat is not like a normal chair, due to which the rectum does not get support when sitting there for a long time. In such a situation, due to gravity, the blood flow starts moving downwards and the pressure on the blood vessels increases. If a person spends more than 10 minutes on the toilet seat, the pressure causes the veins in the anal canal to swell, often resulting in piles (hemorrhoids). In this the patient has to face problems like unbearable pain and bleeding.
The problem is not limited to physical pressure only, but it also disrupts the natural mechanisms of the body. When a person gets lost in the phone screen, he ignores the natural signals received by the body. Due to this, the stool remains in the colon for a longer time and becomes dry, which becomes the main cause of diseases like constipation and anal fissure. Doctors call this the ‘straining paradox’, where a person is causing damage to their pelvic floor without even exerting force.
To avoid this health crisis, doctors have advised to adopt the ‘5 minute rule’. Under this, if the natural process is not completed within 5 minutes, then instead of sitting there, one should get up. Along with this, it is essential to completely give up the habit of taking the phone to the toilet. These serious diseases can be avoided by changing the correct sitting posture and increasing the amount of fiber and water in the diet. Next time you go to the toilet, leaving your phone outside will be beneficial for your health.
