Is wearing a mask harmful to your health for a long time?

Nowadays, wearing a mask seems to have become a habit of everyone. It is true that wearing a mask has many advantages, but many things have two sides, and wearing a mask also has some disadvantages. Today, I will tell you about it.

0 1, wearing a mask for a long time may lead to bacterial infection and induce inflammation.

Although wearing a mask can prevent the infection of pathogenic bacteria, if you wear a mask for a long time, it may lead to bacterial infection and damage the facial skin. Because we wear masks for a long time, some water mist will form inside the masks, which will irritate our local skin and induce inflammation in the long run.

02. Wearing a mask for a long time will lead to poor breathing, which will induce asthma in severe cases.

I believe everyone feels the same way. Wearing a mask for a long time will make you feel "stunned". If you wear a very thick or airtight mask, you may even be out of breath and feel like you are suffocating. Wearing a mask will undoubtedly increase the pressure on our heart and lungs, thus affecting the operation of the entire breathing passage.

And wearing a mask in summer is really hot. I remember last summer, wearing a mask not only made my face acne, but also caused my heart to breathe poorly. At that time, I really hated this mask, but in retrospect, compared with my own life safety, it is really insignificant.

03. Wearing a mask for a long time can cause oral allergy.

Masks all contain some kind of chemical substance. Long-term breathing may also bring the face strap of the mask into the mouth, which seriously affects oral cleaning.

I don't know if you have this experience, that is, when you breathe, you will suck some masks into your mouth. That feeling is still bad, and then I have to take off my mask and take the noodles out of my mouth. Some people may treat it in a wild way and spit it out directly, but this method will make the vomit stars stick to the mask.

Wearing a mask for a long time will reduce our immunity.

Although some harmful substances contained in the air will seriously affect our health, proper stimulation can improve our personal immunity. It's like flowers in a greenhouse. They are usually well protected and grow healthily in the greenhouse, but as long as they lose the environment in this greenhouse, they may suffer from "extinction".

Although wearing a mask has these disadvantages, wearing a mask can give us more sense of security. So I think it is necessary to wear a mask in a less safe place, but in a safer environment, it is ok to take off the mask and breathe fresh air.
