APPLIED RADIOLOGICAL ANATOMY

Detailed explanation-1: -Squatting, or sitting with your knees raised and your legs slightly spread, may indeed be the most natural and most effective way to empty your bowels.

Detailed explanation-2: -When people use posture-changing devices to squat, studies show, they go more quickly. They also strain less and empty their bowels more completely than when they sit on the toilet. By making it easier to poop, squatting might ease constipation and prevent hemorrhoids, which are often a result of straining.

Detailed explanation-3: -But, we can achieve a similar effect by leaning forward as we sit, with our hands on or near the floor. The researchers advise all sufferers from constipation to adopt this forward-leaning position when defecating, as the weight of our torso pressing against the thighs may put an extra squeeze on our colons.

Detailed explanation-4: -Squatting allows the puborectalis to relax, thus releasing its pressure on the rectum and reducing the angle of elimination to the anus.

Detailed explanation-5: -A: It seems leaning forward actually more closely replicates how a human being would actually squat without a toilet, with their center of gravity over the feet.
