Here's a slightly different question for all those who regularly suffer from constipation. When you do 'go', do you have any techniques for making things a bit easier ? What is the best position to sit when on the toilet ? I have tried everything from sitting bolt upright to leaning right forward with my head between my knees, and I find that probably the most effective way is to sit up straight with my buttocks pulled well apart. Do you find that any particular time of the day is better, or do you just go whenever ? Is it better to have a warm drink during or beforehand ? Is there anything you do to help you relax ? Any advice would be really appreciated.
