I know that you have said that the plastic sitz tubs that go on your toilet are bad but in the week since I’ve started using it, I have seen a definite improvement in my fissure pain. I was in agony with every bowel movement. I tried all of the suggestions from my doctor to keep my stool soft and still had intense pain and bleeding. I figured that the sitz bath couldn’t hurt and after a week I’ve been able to have a bowel movement with just a bit of pain. I’m 64 years old with knee replacements so having a bath isn’t an option. I’ve tried the shower method but with my knees I can only hold that position for a few minutes. I’ve also found a good video about reverse Kegal exercises and I think that has helped too. My doctor prescribed a compound ointment but the pharmacy hasn’t prepared it yet. I might not even need it if things keep improving. I’ve been struggling with this pain for almost 3 months. Today I finally feel human again. I will find your video about the plastic sitz baths and watch it. Now I’m curious about why I shouldn’t use it. LOL

Ok I watched your video and realized that you were referring to using them for hemorrhoids. I purchased the exact sitz bath that you showed first in your video. It actually has a larger opening than the toilet seat does because you put the seat up and the sitz bath is placed directly on the toilet. I do have one hemorrhoid but surprisingly it has not been bothering me at all. All I can say is that right now it has been a lifesaver for me. ❤️ I do love your videos though! Thank you for taking the time to share your information!

I dealt with the excruciating pain for a week straight thinking it would go away and it only grew, went to the ER and they sent me for emergency surgery! Best decision of my life, pain instantly gone, i was actually able to walk and lay down without crying. Swallow your pride and see a doctor! It’s worth it. Thank you Dr. Chung you rlly made my process easier and helped me mentally fr, i was so scared.

I used to immediately go for a brisk walk or do aerobic exercise but I noticed that I would flare up. Just taking 10 minutes with heating pad a few times per day always is relaxing. Music, puzzle, etc. thank you for this video, I assumed Sitz baths were about cleaning silly me!!

Currently sitting in a sitz bath trying not to cry. I’m 29 weeks pregnant and in the process of moving. While lifting a box my hemorrhoids decided to make themselves known to the outside world. No creams, suppository or anything is helping and my OB won’t return my calls (I’ve been trying to be seen for a week). I’m hoping my OB in our new city will be more responsive to my concerns, because this is so painful it makes me sweat! Thanks for the advice, it’s making this wait more bearable.

When the pediatrician asked why I was clammy, sweaty and shaking I explained to her my problem and that I couldn’t get ahold of my OB. She called my OB, the OB called me on her personal phone and got me in that afternoon to lance it. She squeezed out a chunk of coagulated blood the size of my thumb and I got up feeling 100x better, despite the fact that she didn’t numb me up before lancing. I sashayed down that hallway on my way out, what a relief! Nobody ever tells you about the nitty gritty details of pregnancy, but unfortunately hemorrhoids fall into that

From Gluten intolerance turning in Celiac disease, hemorrhoids and anal tags, fissures and as of last week a fistula. I’m discouraged and tired of being in pain and dealing with the stigma associated with the idea of these issues meaning I’m not clean or I’m hurting myself from (insert various reasons here) . I have been in the rabbit hole of your content and finding comfort that I’m one, not alone and two, that I have information to make changes in my health. Thank you.

I'm on my second Perianal absess surgery, I find it best to use a clean tub with 4-6 inches of warm water with a bit of epsom salt. i take my phone with me and rest it on a small chair or stool, some nice comedy or movie passes the time swiftly. When you're done using the bathroom, or #2, I use my shower wand to do the cleanup my wipes don't, especially if you are tender down there. after cleaning downstairs area spray down the tub, to clean, and then get your sits bath going. preperation is key so you dont kill yourself in the bathroom, so have your towel, slip mats, epsom, and table/stool, phone/tablet and all Sitz bath helpers ready. Safe and swift recovery to all!

To me this seems abit excessive and my surgeon says its for comfort only, will doing these sitz baths help speed up the healing process or should I just stick with normal showers for hygiene and using warm bidet after bowel movements? I'll only continue with the sitz baths if they truly speed up the healing process. Thanks.

Im confused about how a sitz bath can be done while laying flat in bed. You mentioned this as an option in the video, but you didnt describe how to do it. For instance, what if I dioped a washcloth in the warm epson salt water and let it sit on the hemorrhoids (aka between my butt cheeks) for 10-15 minutes? Also, as a woman, should I be conserned about the epsom salt water getting into my vagina?

Hi, i have and often get thrombosed hemorrhoids. This last bout have me two on my perineum close to my lady entrance. Is it possible to get them there? I'm bedridden so cant use a sitz bath. Anybody else ever had their thrombosed hemorrhoids pop out on perineum. Thank you.

Dr. Chung. . thanks again for the helpful advice. One thing that I'm running into is--I just had anal fistula surgery (LIFT procedure) and doc left dissolvable sutures. The bath felt amazing and I ended up staying in for so long, that I actually think I might've ruined my sutures. 😞😞😞😞 Is there a warning about this? Does someone with sutures need to be wary of soaking too long?

Hello doc. Loving your videos. Hit the subscription in the 1st video itself. I had a query. I've got a serious problem with sitz bath. I do my sitz bath in a baby pool kind of tub. But being a female my urinary tract is exposed to the bacteria in water and causing painful UTI. please talk about this in your next video as it is a gender specific problem and must have been a cause of unavoidable pain for many.

What do you recommend for someone with full ileostomy, no colon. Not a candidate for surgery. Complex fistulas and painful abscesses breaking thru buttock cheek. My docs don't even seem to understand ileostomy issues, period!

Wait… so the main point is just to relax while bathing? So why does it have to be a bath if you can relax while laying in bed and water temp isn’t a factor?
