Often we do not even think about such things and really need to be careful and not to touch certain parts of your body so as not to transfer bacteria from one place to another.
Sure that the importance of such procedure as regular hand washing, you know from childhood. Parents always try to teach it to their children, it’s elementary rules of hygiene. This is due to the fact that during the day we touch an incredible number of items, and they accumulate a lot of different bacteria, says steptohealth.ru.
And if you neglect personal hygiene, these bacteria came to us on hands, as well can easily get to other parts of the body and even inside our body, causing adverse reactions (up to and including serious diseases).
So what body parts should never be touched by hands? What if still to do it?
Why it is important to wash hands?
October 15 declared UNICEF (international relief United Nations children’s Fund, eng. United NationsInternational Children’s Emergency Fund) world clean hands day (Global Handwashing Day). This initiative was launched to improve the awareness of the population. So I wanted to draw attention to the importance of this problem.
The fact is that many diseases are transferred through hands failure to observe the rules of hygiene.
Perhaps you think yourself blameless in this respect, I think that watch your hygiene is the best way and is not subject to any risk, because it is not in contact with toxic products.
But before you say so, think of whether all the objects you touch are clean?
For example, if you work all day at a computer, the microbes can be caught with the keys or screen directly to your mouth. And one should not assume that your office is clean.
Because germs fly in the air, too, and we can’t control.
1. Eyes
Vision is one of the most important senses we possess. Therefore, when we have to contend with any eye infection, it delivers a strong discomfort.
Very often we, without noticing, we can say, flicking his eyes to the three. Or want to get eyelash (the mote), caught in the eye. If you do this with dirty hands, infection may enhance your manifestation.
Think about it, because we are all somehow committed this error.
Here is some advice that should never be overlooked:
- Always wash your hands before touching the face (particularly the eyes).
- If you need to pull out the lash or wipe a tear, use a disposable napkin.
- Avoid contact with eyes, foreign objects and substances.
If you wear contact lenses, be especially careful.
- Never touch your eyes, unless you have first washed your hands with neutral soap.
- It is important that you learn to remove and put on contact lenses with great care. Ask your ophthalmologist to show you how to do it.
- Do not touch the eyeball with your hands, so you can easily damage this sensitive organ.
Often when you get home after a hard day, you feel so tired that you want to remove the lens and fall into bed. But you should not under any circumstances ignore the process of their purification.
The thing is that the liquid for storing contact lenses kills all the germs. It only cleans the surface.
Also you should only wash the solid with neutral soap and warm water.
Liquid soap usually leaves on hands protective layer of different chemicals, and they can easily get on your lenses. Over time they build up too much, and as a result your lenses will last much less. You do shorten the shelf life.
2. Intimate zone
Intimate zone, in fact, so called, that the majority of us is clear: before you touch yourself “there”, you should make sure that personal hygiene.
Germs and bacteria listed in the intimate area with dirty hands can cause the development of any type of infections.
Because this area is itself humid, it has its own micro-flora and micro-organisms, and the interaction with other types of bacteria can cause serious trouble.
A very common mistake among women is “excessive” efforts. The zeal for purity causes them to use not only with water and soap, but also a special vaginal products (for personal hygiene).
We, on the other hand, recommended to minimize the use of soap and to completely eliminate vaginal shampoos.
3. Ears
Hands should not touch the ears (and even more not worth it to scratch their nails). Such actions can easily cause internal damage, which then get infected.
First, do not forget that the ears we have sulfur. It just serves as a natural barrier to protect our ears from bacteria.
Therefore, you should not try to remove from the ears of all sulfur. If you feel that it has accumulated too much, go to the audiologist.
It will help you remove excess sulfur from the ears and, most importantly, do it right and as safely as possible.
4. Face
Try not to touch it with his hands and his face. Of course, in most cases, we do it unintentionally, almost automatically, but still need to avoid it. As much as possible.
There are several reasons. The first is that bacteria and dirt from our hands, fall on your face.
If you do not maintain proper hygiene, pores are easily clogged and polluted. As a result, the skin of pimples and redness.
The only exception to the rule is the washing. That is, to touch his face only to wash it. Of course, after washing hands.
So, as you can see, to touch various parts of his body are not worth it. It is fraught with problems, both minor and serious.
So take a note and try to follow the hands.
