In childhood, if we did not cut our nails, then parents, elders, or teachers used to scold us a lot because cut nails are considered a sign of cleanliness. In this era of fashion, girls are fond of lengthening their nails, so that they can look different from others by applying nail paint, even if because of this they have to face many difficulties in doing normal work. Nowadays, the trend of artificial nails has also increased a lot, but long nails are not at all good for our health.

Diseases spread due to long nails
It has been proved in many types of research that people who grow their nails and do not bother to cut them for a long time, then dust, dirt, and dirt get trapped in the nails, and germs that spread serious diseases get trapped. Despite washing hands well several times, the dirt remains frozen in the nails. This can cause diseases like pinworm.


Pinworm is a type of intestinal worm infection. Very thin and white-colored insects are born which secretly start spreading the infection. Due to this, itching and trouble sleeping can arise. These worms start reaching the body through your nails, especially when you eat food.

Never keep long nails
The nail should never be allowed to grow, it is necessary to cut it regularly, otherwise, it becomes a home for dangerous bacteria. Especially during defecation, dirt gets trapped in the nails, which later causes damage. It is better to stop growing nails in the wake of fashion.

Take care of these things
Keep trimming the nails regularly.
Avoid the habit of biting your nails.
Clean the nail cutter after use.
While washing hands, make sure that the lower part of the nail is also washed or not.
Do not use artificial nails while eating food.
