I had a J-Pouch created over 2007-2008. After healing, I developed horrible skin flares on my glutes near my anus. I suffered for years and nothing really helped. My flares were so sore that sometimes I would bleed. My wife and I stayed in an apartment in Europe that had a bidet, which I had never used before. After one week I noticed an improvement in my skin flares and after two weeks my skin was mostly healed. When we returned home I immediately bought a bidet attachment for our existing toilet (2015). It was under $100 and easy for a plumber or handy person to install. The change in my skin health was dramatic. My skin healed completely and I haven’t had any issues since. The years before my bidet no meds, creams or wipes worked. Since the bidet it’s been smooth sailing. My only concern is when I am away from home with no bidet.
