4. Sitting on the toilet for too long
For some people, the toilet seat becomes a place to read books, watch videos or scroll through social media when they get in. However, sitting on the toilet seat for too long can cause hemorrhoids because the seated position adds a lot of pressure on the veins in your lower rectum which can cause it to swell.
5. Placing toilet brush back into the holder immediately after use
This act can cause germs and moisture to breed in the brush. Before putting the brush in its holder, allow it to dry out.
6. Keeping toothbrush too close to the toilet seat
When being flushed, fecal and urine matter get into the air, and when your toothbrush is close by, they can get into the brush.
7. Not Washing your hand for long
According to research, it takes 20 seconds to give your hands a proper scrub with soap and water. Washing for less than 20 seconds may not clean germs enough.
