The answer

The area of ' (cleaning after defecation/urination) must be washed with water until the trace of impurity is removed. A strong presumption of purity is sufficient. It is not obligatory to use tissues before water. If you are certain that something exited after Istinja', you must repeat Istinja'. Otherwise, the default is purity, and do not pay attention to whispers (waswas).
