4 health hazards of men not wearing men's cotton socks
Mar 03, 2022| Four health risks of men not wearing men's cotton socks
Four health risks of not wearing cotton socks:
1, increase the probability of trauma and infection:
Bare-footed shoes expose a lot of skin of the feet, which is often bruised or bitten by mosquitoes. If you walk too much, your feet will be bruised and bleeds. Bacteria in the air adhere to the skin, and if there is a wound in the skin, it will cause infection.
2. The skin is directly "scorched" by sunlight:
Ultraviolet rays in sunlight will stimulate the skin to produce a large number of oxidative free radicals, which will destroy skin cells and tissues, accelerate melanin production, make skin pigmentation, roughness and loss of elasticity, and reduce skin resistance. According to some data, the skin of barefoot sandals is directly exposed to sunlight in a large area, which increases the risk of skin cancer.
3. Causes skin keratosis and dermatitis:
Frequent direct contact with shoes easily makes the stratum corneum of heel, toe and other parts that often contact with shoes longer and thicker, which increases the probability of callus, that is, "cocoon" and "corns". In addition, some people walk barefoot for a long time, and skin redness, pimples, blisters and other symptoms are easy to appear in the friction parts between instep, toes and shoes, which is caused by skin allergy to leather, rubber and other shoes materials, and it is a kind of contact dermatitis.
4, prone to fungal infection:
People's feet sweat easily in hot weather, and wearing shoes directly without cotton socks, especially those with poor air permeability such as plastic sandals and sneakers, will directly soak the skin of feet in sweat, while fungi are easy to grow in hot and humid environment, and fungal infection of feet will occur.
