a coworker asked me, if one has an upset stomache or over reactive bladder and tends to use the bathroom more often the the normal person because bodily discomfort. does this person say asher yatzar ever single time they use the restroom. what increment of waste must be exposed of for the bracha to qualify.
Answer:
A bracha should be made after each time one uses the bathroom, even if only a small amount is passed. The exception is if immediately after one goes to the bathroom they already the urge to go again. Then they would wait until after to make the asher yatzar.
