Nail fuzz-like growth next to the nail☆ 'Nail hangnail'

☆Rough 'lip dead skin'

 

☆ The scab that forms on a wound.

 

The three common points are that they should not be removed carelessly.

 

However, many people cannot endure the frustration and resort to using their hands or teeth to remove the teeth.

 

There are people who remove it even while enduring pain.

 

However, this is a wrong choice that can lead to illness.

 

Three things that should not be removed from the body

 

☆1. Lip dead skin

 

When exposed to dry environments for a long time, lips become dry, develop dead skin, and the surface becomes rough.

 

Removing dead skin forcibly at this time can damage the skin. This is because the skin on the lips is thinner compared to other areas.

 

Also, continuously peeling off dead skin makes the lips drier and swollen.

 

Continuously picking at it with contaminated hands can lead to secondary infections and increase the risk of stomatitis.

 

It is better not to forcibly peel off the lips; instead, apply enough lip balm or lip cream and gently remove it with a cotton swab.

 

Also, to prevent the formation of lip flakes, it is good to regularly apply lip balm.

 

☆2. Nail hangnail

Nail hangnails are bothersome to look at and also distracting during activities.

 

Because of this, many people cannot resist impulse and habitually pick at it.

 

However, you must remember that if you cannot endure the frustration of the moment, it can lead to illness.

 

Removing the debris can cause a wound, allowing bacteria or fungi to penetrate and potentially lead to periungual dermatitis.

 

Periungual inflammation causes pain and, as the condition progresses, can lead to yellow pus.

 

In severe cases, the nails may fall off, and the damaged nails may turn brown.

 

When a hangnail forms, it is best to trim it short with a clean nail clipper.

 

Also, to prevent issues, you should regularly apply hand cream.

 

☆3. Scar

 

The scab acts as a protective barrier to prevent bacteria from entering our body through the wound site.

 

Forcibly removing it increases the risk of bacteria invading our body, and during the process of peeling off the scab, there is also a risk of bacteria from the hands being transferred to the wound.

 

Therefore, it is advisable to leave the wound until it heals on its own and the scab falls off.
