There’s a reason we wash our rear ends with water every time we go to the toilet, use plenty of water to wash as wipes & toilet paper alone do nothing🚿
Go to the doctors, sounds like some sort of incontinence x
Wash wash wash with water!!! Will help toilet paper is no good on its own and wipes don’t solve the problem either 🚿
Use wet wipes after you poo. Or get a spray bottle to wash that area after pooping. And see a doctor.
Same issue. I have hemorrhoids though
Never trust a fart
This happens to a lot of people after birth, even if you had a c section! .talk to your doctor about it, they can give you better tips or medicine that can help
Atp, get in the shower after you poop if you have the time 😭 another tip is when you wipe, push so your butthole opens up and you can clean what you missed.
Pelvic floor exercises. Even if you had a c-section, carrying a child for 9 months can "weaken" your pelvic floor muscles. So even if you clean with water you may find this issue recurring. Speak to your doc and they'll let you know whether it's hemorrhoids like others have mentioned, or that you need to do pelvic floor exercises.
Use baby lotion on some tissue to wipe yourself
If this is a new issue then I would see your GP for advice tbh. It’s all well and good being told to wash with water but clearly you were doing a thorough job previously which means something has changed. Yes, washing with water may help you but it may just mask whatever the issue causing it actually is.
Sounds like haemorrhoids
I have hemorrhoids, so sometimes this is common.
You could try using a peribottle to clean after using the toilet.

I second a bidet or even water bottle wash before toilet paper so ensure you are clean. Also passing gas causes small amounts of poo to come out sometimes too. This causes an irritation and itchiness sometimes as well as a smell.
@Rachel I don't have hemorroids
You may not be emptying your bowels all the way.
You not wiping good enough chile…
Bidet and wet wipes
It could be hemorrhoids or a pelvic floor issue! I would speak with your provider about it.
Maybe after having the baby you have leaky butt
Another vote for bidet
Never be embarrassed to observe or advocate for yourself. It's taken me 19 years to get properly diagnosed for my prolapse because every doctor dismissed it as hemorrhoids until I actually got them from pregnancy and it was obvious that there was a severely clear difference. I use soap and water and isopropyl alcohol every time I go no matter where I am, it's just how I raised. I would never consider wiping to be clean nor very clean. I have a partial rectal prolapse and, more recently, diverticulosis, which are both permanent, so my doctors {I have a colorectal surgeon and gastroenterologist} recommend doing exactly what I've been doing my entire life anyway. You could easily have something else going on like hemorrhoids or even a weak pelvic floor, which I was recently diagnosed with after all of the trauma that my body had been through in the last two years. My gastroenterologist prescribed physical therapy for that to prevent any colorectal incontinence.
Do you have hemorrhoids?
