Although the campaign is meant to be humorous, it does send out an important health message. The department warns that ignoring your need to poop can lead to serious health problems, such as hemorrhoids and stool retention. A post read: “Many people find it difficult to poop in public toilets. But we’re here to tell you that it’s perfectly fine to go number two at work.”
The campaign also discusses the condition of parkopresis, sometimes called ‘poo paranoia’. People suffering from this condition may experience anxiety, increased heart rate or nausea due to fear of being criticised by others when using a public toilet.
