We all know that the navel is formed by the umbilical cord cut after the fetus leaves the mother, and its shape is also uneven. The sunken navel often hides dirt, which is a mixture of sweat and dander produced after human metabolism. Accumulate over time, forming black dirt. Although the dirt looks black, it is not as dirty as expected, and the beneficial bacteria and harmful bacteria in the navel are balanced. If the cleaning is too clean, it will lead to bacterial imbalance.
So can you pick the dirty things in your belly button? Actually, the old man said that? Is it easy to have a stomachache when picking navel? It makes sense, because there is a very important acupoint on the navel called Shenque, which will stimulate the nerves when picking the navel. Nerve stimulation can cause abdominal pain, and navel often causes inflammation. It is recommended not to pick navel. Of course, it is ok to clean the navel in time, but it is not advisable to dig the navel. If the belly button is shallow, you can wash it with warm water. If it is deep, you can wipe it with a cotton swab dipped in warm water. When wiping with a cotton swab, be careful not to use too much force to avoid irritating sensitive nerves.
Through the above understanding, we know that the belly button can not be dug casually, and also understand how the mud in the belly button is formed, so the old man said? Is it easy to have a stomachache when picking navel? There is still some truth.
