In this episode, Bimal Maharjan, founder of Gutsphere, dives into an often-overlooked cause of hemorrhoid flare-ups: Pelvic Floor Dysfunction (PFD). Despite proper diet, hydration, and exercise, many people still experience straining and pressure due to PFD, where the pelvic muscles are either too tight or too weak. Bimal illuminates red flags and offers practical solutions, including breathwork, anal sphincter training, and toilet time retraining. The episode emphasizes the importance of balance, relaxation, and thorough tracking for effective recovery. Stay tuned for the next episode covering when to seek medical help and how to combine self and clinical care.
