I have recently found that I have an allergy to toilet paper, and after using various wet brands, I have found that Izal toilet paper is the only product that seems to help. Although it has cleared up the soreness, it is extremely difficult to negotiate wiping with this type of paper. Any suggestions

Poor you - I treated a lady with an itchy anus for many months before we discovered she was allergic to loo paper - only the 2nd time I'd ever come across this. She'd been OK until a few months before then developed it. Using the old greaseproof stuff - if you scrunch it up hard & then rub it, it seems to be more absorbant & less slippery. The only other suggestion I can think of is baby wipes but I presume you've tried those. The kandoo ones are available in individual wraps, so handy for carrying round in your bag. You might find that once you've healed, you can go back to normal paper habits. Good luck.

The amount of toilet paper being flushed at a time will make a great difference but if your family isn't using handfulls of paper with every flush, I suggest that you take the toilet off and check to see if something is stuck in the S shape of the toilet (this ca be done with a coat hanger wire, but you must approach the problem from the bottom of the toilet). Also, you may have a problem further down the drain pipe, so be prepared to snake out the drainpipe if nothing is found in the toilet.

How can you be allergic to loo paper?? Is it the bleach or something? You could try recycled paper I guess. Or wipe with normal paper then clean again with baby wipes, these will sooth any soreness xx

My auntie who is 83 has always used this toilet paper, she says it is as soft as any other providing you screw it up first and then undo it, try it she says it works

Have you tried huggies pure? Buy it in the baby isle. It's the only wet brand my son and I can use - other than cotton wool and water........
