Lana Saint Clair, a resident of San Antonio, recently shared how a common discomfort turned into a serious medical situation. In a viral video on TikTok, the Texan detailed how her reluctance to use the bathroom at her new boyfriend’s house for three weeks eventually landed her in the emergency room. The post, which has garnered over 6.2 million views, serves as a candid reminder that holding it in is never a good idea.
In the clip, Saint Clair is chatting with her boyfriend and shares the story through on-screen text. “This is Hayden. We’ve been dating for almost a year now. A few months into dating, I ended up in the ER because I didn’t want to poop at his house (for 3 weeks). When I came back over, he bear hugged me, carried me into the bathroom, sat me on the toilet and sang a song to my GI tract about why pooping is normal until I was comfortable. And that is my why.”
