i hate going to the bath room in public. I have a hard time going if any on is in there with me. Also sometimes after I go poo, my anus sometimes hurts or burns. why? :confused:
-
Afrid of going to bathroom in public

This "shy bladder syndrome" is very common. Lots of people have the same difficulty you have. It is said that if you do a hard mental arithmetic problem in your head you can fool your brain into letting go. Or you can use a stall.
Having your anus hurting or burning a bit isn't unusual. Curries or other spicy food often burn a bit on the way out. If you are a bit consipated and the poo is hard it can hurt a bit. More water and more fibre in your diet helps.

Might not be the best thing for your urinary tract.
-
Me too. And then if I absolutely, positively must use a public bathroom, I hover over the seat and pee. I dont understand how people can sit where hundreds of foreign asses have been.
-
They do have these things called seat covers.
-
Seat covers are not readily available, really public restrooms hardly ever have then. My mom carries a personal pack in her purse, but I wont use them because the pee on the seat can soak through the cover.
-
That's why you wipe with paper first and then place the cover on. But if the seat is soaked with urine, then I probably wouldn't use it either unless it was an emergency.

Wouldn't you just squat and aim?
If you think ladies' room toilets are nasty, you should check out the men's toilets. Blechhh.
In high school I had a job that included, among other things, cleaning the men's and ladies' room toilets in a private club (my friend's father was a mobster; the pay was very good). Drunk ladies can make quite a mess.

Paranoia.
-
I've got a real problem with wiping up someone else's urine.
-
oooh i'm all for the hover as well!!i dont understand how people sit on public toilets..it's just...ew...Go the hover
-
We people who use the public restrooms find that we are more concerned with what we need to do, not what other people have done. Lol. I hate when people I don't like the looks of are in there. I find it hard to use the bathrom at my school when there's a kid smoking in the stall next to mine.
