If you take your mobile phone to the bathroom then you should be careful as it can be a breeding ground for germs and pathogens. Here are some reasons for this.
Using your phone in the bathroom can increase the risk of infections such as urinary tract infections (UTIs), diarrhea, and intestinal infections. These infections can be caused by bacteria such as E. coli, salmonella, and C. difficile that can accumulate on your phone.
It can be difficult to clean the phone without damaging it, so regular cleaning may not be effective. When you leave the bathroom, you take these bacteria with you, which can infect others if they touch your phone.
Sitting on the toilet for long periods of time can increase the risk of hemorrhoids and musculoskeletal problems. It can also aggravate existing gastrointestinal problems.
Avoid taking your mobile phone to the toilet. The biggest concern about taking your mobile phone to the toilet is hygiene. Bathrooms, especially public toilets, are a hotbed of germs and bacteria.
Bacteria can accumulate on the surface of the phone and when people leave the bathroom, they take these bacteria with them. If someone else touches the phone, he or she can get infected with these bacteria. Shockingly, some studies suggest that phones may contain more bacteria than toilet seats. This puts you at risk of exposure to germs such as E. coli, salmonella and C. difficile, increasing the chances of infections such as urinary tract infections (UTIs), diarrhea and various intestinal infections.
