Prolonged toilet time, especially with distractions, raises hemorrhoid risk; experts urge quick, focused bathroom breaks.
GPs and health experts warn that spending more than three to five minutes on the toilet—especially while using phones or reading—can increase the risk of hemorrhoids due to prolonged pressure on anal veins.
They advise responding promptly to the urge to defecate, staying hydrated, eating high-fiber foods, avoiding straining, and getting up if no bowel movement occurs within a few minutes.
Limiting distractions and keeping visits short can help prevent pain, bleeding, itching, and long-term digestive issues.
