Who would have thought that in a common place like the toilet, we are making some mistakes that can prove to be dangerous for our health? But the reality is that most of us develop some such habits in the toilet that can be harmful for us.
Most of us are unknowingly making such mistakes in the toilet, which can prove to be very dangerous for our health. Many times we ignore our small habits, but it cannot be said when these habits can become the cause of a serious disease in the future. Famous proctologist Dr. Ivan Goldstein has warned that excessive use of toilet paper and wet wipes can cause serious harm to your body.
According to Dr. Ivan, this habit can lead to skin irritation, infection and even diseases like hemorrhoids and fissures. He said that the skin around the private parts is very sensitive and repeated rubbing can cause small cuts and irritation.
Dr. Ivan has expressed even bigger concern about wet wipes. He says that people use wet wipes for more cleanliness, but these are not only dangerous for the environment, but are also very harmful for your skin. He says that one-third of the patients who come to his clinic every week are suffering from problems caused by wet wipes.
How do wet wipes harm your health?
The chemicals and fragrances present in wet wipes can disturb the body's natural bacterial balance, which can lead to infections and allergies. Apart from this, excessive rubbing of wet wipes can increase problems like cracks and hemorrhoids in the skin of the private part. At the same time, excessive wiping can cause irritation, itching and swelling on the skin.
What are the other options?
* Use a bidet: According to Dr. Ivan, it is better to use a bidet instead of toilet paper and wet wipes. It cleans with a light water spray and keeps the skin safe.
* Clean gently with a shower: If a bidet is not available, then washing with a light spray of water after toilet is the best option.
* Use toilet paper correctly: If you have to use toilet paper, then blot with light hands instead of rubbing vigorously.
* Avoid scented wipes: Even if you are using wet wipes, choose brands that are without any harmful chemicals, parabens and fragrances.
