blocked toilet...
 
 

Prevention is usually easier than cure here. If the blockage is paper, you can try unavailing a wire coat hanger but leave the hook on the end. Use the hook end to try to draw the blockage back into the pan where you can break it up to be flushed away in pieces.

Using a plunger.
This is one of the handiest tools for unblocking toilets. The special toilet plunger has a tapered lip to fit the shape of the bowl. The first method to try when using the plunger is to draw the obstruction back into the bowl (not push it into the main drain where it can cause more problems). Here is how to go about it.

First ensure there is enough water in the pan to cover the plunger. Place the cup of the plunger over the drain at an angle, with the edge of the cup at the edge of the drain. This will keep most of the air out of the cup. Push down firmly and straighten the handle, compressing the cup. Now pull up on the handle very sharply. The cup will snap off the drain and water will flow up from the trap into the toilet bowl. Repeat this action several times until the blockage comes back into the bowl. If this is not sufficient to solve the problem, another, less appealing method, is to cover your hand and forearm with a plastic garbage bag and reach into the trap to remove the blockage manually. If none of these steps is effective, you are recommended to call in a plumber who has a tool called “drain auger", which can reach right into the drain and move most obstacles. You can buy and use this tool yourself but it needs care to avoid damaging the bowl or snagging the tool in the system.
