Ok so. I'm 291 lbs. I have spinal injury with lots of surgeries. I'm recently having a really hard time..... wiping....... My butt. Any suggestions?

no such thing as TMI

if you can't ask "us"

who can you ask

many/ OP have similar issues with the bathroom

are you saying that your spinal problem will never improve??

or spinal problem will improve as you lose weight????

ummmm

you need to bend forward as much as you can

when you need to "wipe yourself"

good luck

The symptoms will improve with weight loss. However it will never get better. It's degenerative.

If you're in public put a pack of baby wipes in your purse.

I tend to find them easier to use.

At home would it be easier to rinse off in a shower or something?

[tssiemer 85]

Yeah. I have a hand held shower head for that. But I work up to 10 hours a day. :-/ I was in a stall at a park at my husbands family reunion and just could not finagle I way to wipe properly.

Have you tried one of those sticks? The one I found on Amazon even comes with a carrying case so you can keep it in your purse.
