However, Xiaofu would like to remind everyone:

Try to do this action sparingly!

According to the Southern Daily, doctors do not recommend doing this action often. The main reasons are:

1. When doing this action, the fingers will touch the "danger triangle" of our face, that is, the triangular area formed by the line between the base of the nose and the corners of the mouth on both sides.

Chief Physician Zhao Zhixiang, deputy director of the Department of Otolaryngology of Zhejiang Hospital, explained that the blood vessels in the facial triangle are very abundant, and the "communication" is developed, and blood can reach anywhere in the body through the vascular system. For example, there is a large facial vein next to the nasal cavity, which communicates with the cavernous sinus in the skull through the medial canthal vein.

The cavernous sinus is home to many blood vessels in the brain, as well as the important oculomotor nerve, trochlear nerve, ophthalmic branch of the trigeminal nerve, maxillary branch of the trigeminal nerve, and adjacent to the abducens nerve and cervical sympathetic nerve.

Urgent reminder! This gesture that is popular all over the Internet, hurry up and stop imitating!

If we have a pimple or wound on our nose, touching or squeezing it without clean fingers may cause cavernous sinus infection, which can cause symptoms such as redness, swelling and pain in the eyes, fixed pupils, double vision, decreased vision, drooping eyelids, severe headache and eye pain, and in severe cases, it can lead to seizures, hemiplegia, coma and even death. Although the probability of this happening is relatively small, you should still be vigilant and try to avoid doing it.

Second, when doing this movement, the fingers are very close to the inner corner of the eye.

Dr. Wu Zhenyu of the Department of Ophthalmology of Zhejiang Hospital reminded that if the fingers are not clean, it is likely to cause sensitive and itchy corners of the eyes, and if you do not hold your arms steady when you are concave, you may also directly poke your eyes.

3. When doing this action, people tend to frown unconsciously, and this action will affect the frowning muscles.

According to Ping Weidong, deputy chief physician of the Department of Plastic Surgery and Cosmetic Surgery of Zhejiang Hospital, the frown muscle is an important expression muscle of the human face, and when the muscle is contracted, longitudinal, oblique or vertical wrinkles will appear between the eyebrows, and if the muscle is contracted for a long time, the skin between the eyebrows will form irreversible wrinkles.

Today, CCTV

Risk warnings are also issued

Indicates that behind the seemingly cool action

But there are potential risks

According to the "Central Radio Network", doing this action may also cause contact with the eyes.

Our eyes are very sensitive and fragile organs, and if there are bacteria on the fingers, after contact with the eyes, it may lead to eye infections, causing conjunctivitis, keratitis and other diseases. These eye diseases can not only cause us discomfort, such as redness, swelling, pain, itching, tearing, etc., but may also affect vision in severe cases.

So, once again, a reminder to everyone

This action looks cool though

But for health

There are only disadvantages, no benefits

Or don't imitate as well

Forward to remind the people around you!

Urgent reminder! This gesture that is popular all over the Internet, hurry up and stop imitating!
