  The constipation experienced by many modern people generally refers to cases where the interval between stools is long, but if the stool is too hard to stool, or if the amount of stool is too small, it will be refreshed after stool If not, this includes cases where stool can be stool only by using an enema or constipation drug. Medically, constipation refers to the case where the bowel movement is 3 times or less per week and the amount of stool is 30 g or less, and if the person does not feel refreshed after stooling or feels that she wants to stool many times, she is constipated.

  Short-term constipation is not a problem, but late adulthood causes systemic symptoms such as abdominal distention, abdominal pain, loss of appetite, headache, skin rash, stiff shoulders, and other anal disorders such as hemorrhoids and fissures May develop or colon cancer may develop due to abnormal growth of bacteria in the field.

  Rectal constipation is related to bowel posture. Westerners used by modern people carry the height and structure used by Westerners as they are, so Easterners who are shorter and have a smaller body than Westerners, when sitting on the toilet, The bending posture is very hard to come out. Due to such a bent posture, the stool does not come out at all, the stool is thin, and the stomach has a habit of giving strength or stomach stomach.

  If you put your stomach hard, the belly muscles and the pelvic muscles are connected by the same nervous system, so the contradictory result that the stool comes out with the anus narrowed rather than the stool is refreshed More force is applied to the anus, and frequent stomach force is applied to the stomach, lengthening the rectum and experiencing a vicious cycle that worsens constipation.

  When stooling in a conventional toilet, the waist is straightened, the pelvis comes out later, the anus spreads well, the pelvic muscles are stretched, and it is a posture that is medically very easy to stool It has been known.

  Therefore, Korean Patent Publication No. 10-2007-0120478, “Western toilet for comfort” and Korean Patent Publication No. 10-2005-0120449, “Toilet sheet for guiding smooth defecation”, etc. When sitting on the toilet, the front of the seat (toilet seat) is protruded higher than the rear so as to push up the thigh so as to take a defecation posture similar to that of a conventional toilet.

  As described above, in the prior art, the thigh is pushed up to take a defecation posture in a conventional toilet, but since the body shape of the person is not considered, there is a problem that is inconvenient for people who do not fit the body shape. is there. That is, a tall person and a low person, or a thin person and a fat person have different body shapes, so that the positions of the thighs to take a defecation posture in a conventional toilet without inconvenience are different from each other.

  Therefore, it is necessary to protrude the front of the seat higher than the rear, and the height of the protrusion needs to be slightly different depending on the person. There are some inconveniences for people with body shapes.
