Items You Shouldn’t Be Using in The Shower

Deodorant Soaps

Deodorant or antibacterial soaps are home to harsh fragrances and ingredients that might cause your skin to lose moisture. As a result, your skin might become dry, itchy, and flaky. I advise you to use moisturizing washes, especially if you have aging skin.

Phones

Your bathroom is not a nice place for phones, especially non-water resistant varieties. Carrying your non-water resistant phone to the bathroom exposes it to a humid environment, which can leave you incurring the costs to repair or replace the device.

Loofahs

Loofahs are made with fibrous material. While this material is ideal for cleansing and exfoliating the skin, it can absorb moisture and encourage bacterial growth and reproduction.

The work of a family doctor includes a wide range of clinical diversity, which requires extensive knowledge and erudition from a specialist. However, I believe that the most important thing for a family doctor is to be human because the cooperation and understanding between the doctor and the patient are crucial in ensuring successful health care. On my days off, I love being in nature. Since childhood, I have been passionate about playing chess and tennis. Whenever I have time off, I enjoy traveling around the world.
