Many people use smartphones in the toilet. Doctors say checking emails or looking at videos on the toilet could damage your body. A doctor who studied the functions of the stomach warned that bathroom bacteria contain health risks. The doctor said many people do not know about the dangers. He said we should stop this habit. He said smartphone addiction could have "some serious consequences".
People wrongly think that using a smartphone in the toilet is harmless. The doctor said bacteria could damage the "toilet areas" of our stomach. Using a smartphone makes us sit on the toilet longer. This puts extra pressure on our stomach. The doctor also warned that toilet bacteria could "breed" on our smartphone. He added: "The average smartphone is dirtier than a public toilet seat, so try avoiding scrolling while using the toilet."
