In today's digital world, smartphones have become an important part of our lives, without which we cannot live even for 1 minute, many people take their phones to the toilet—this habit may seem harmless, but it can actually have a serious impact on your health. Let's know about its disadvantages-

1. Risk of bacterial contamination
When you take your phone there, these harmful bacteria can stick to its surface. Then whenever you touch your phone, there is a risk of these germs reaching your hands, mouth and face, which can lead to infections and diseases.
2. Negative effect on the pelvic muscles
Sitting for long periods of time puts pressure on your pelvic muscles, which can weaken them over time and lead to health problems.
3. Pressure on mental health
The toilet is one of the few places where your mind can truly relax. However, scrolling on your phone keeps your brain stimulated, which prevents mental relaxation.
4. Increased risk of piles
Sitting on the toilet for long periods of time while distracted by the phone puts unnecessary pressure on the rectal area. Over time, this can cause hemorrhoids or worsen existing problems.
