How unwashed/dirty hands may lead to major health issues?
It has been clear by the research that not washing your hands and dirty hands will lead to major health issues, but we're not taking it seriously. One report suggests that we could save a million lives per year if someone does it consistently. What's more, if you don't wash your hands, problems can arise.
Contaminated hands can spread from one person to another a number of viral infections. These diseases include stomach infections, such as Salmonella, and respiratory infections such as flu. Washing your hands regularly will help avoid the transmission of the germs that cause these illnesses (like bacteria and viruses).
Vithoba is here to tell you how major health problems will arise from unwashed hands.
Some problems that can be caused by unwashed or dirty hands are listed below:
You pass Germs on
When you're full of germs, if you don't wash your hands, you can transfer the germs on to friends and relatives to make them infected. If you get those germs on an item, like a door handle or railings, you could infect individuals you don't even know. Be sure to lather up after you use the toilet.
You might get sick, too
If you don’t wash your hands then you are carrying a lot of germs with you. Your hands will take that germs from the areas you don't even want to think of into your eyes and your mouth. And the diseases that germs can cause can be severe.
By washing your hands with soap, you will be safe from diseases like diarrhoea, respiratory infections, and more.
Miss Lots of work and school
Children also don't wash their hands. All the germs that don't wipe away will make them sick, which leads them to miss school. Though they don’t wash their hands can cause gastrointestinal issues.
Washing your hands thoroughly with soap and water is one of the ways you can stop catching the flu.
You're losing money
Every year people spend a lot of money battling against the flu. That number covers visits to the doctor, stays in the hospital, and medicines. So washing your hands might help save you money, too.
Your guts are going to cause you problems
Diarrhoea may be a symptom such as cholera or typhoid with a larger illness. For children under 5, diarrhoea is the second leading cause of death. Due to diarrheal disorders, about 1.5 million children die per year. One research showed that almost 4 out of every 10 cases of diarrhoea can be avoided by washing hands with soap.
Eyes may be impaired (Yours and Others)
It has been shown that washing your hands eliminates two far-reaching eye diseases. If you touch your eyes with unwashed hands it can lead to eye disease.
Skin Infections
Staphylococcus bacteria, for short, are germs that are often found on the skin and in the nostrils. If those germs get into an open wound, they can cause skin infections or travel deep into the skin and soft tissues. They can shift from there into the muscles, joints, and organs. They can also trigger blood poisoning.
Cleaning your hands with soap and water helps keep them from moving. Trying to hide fresh wounds like that is too much.
For sepsis
The immune system in your body will also turn on itself in the form of a dangerous disease called sepsis when confronted with an infection. One of the most effective methods of preventing sepsis is healthy handwashing, both before and after treating a sick person.
How to clean your hands:
