In the summer heat, swimming becomes a good way to beat the summer heat, however, women need to pay special attention and should be elected at the right time in order to avoid infection and gynecological diseases. Especially when swimming in public pools, it is important to pay attention to hygiene and personal health protection to avoid the spread of bacteria through the pool water and cross-infection. From the physiological characteristics of women, the vagina and the outside world are connected, which provides the possibility of bacterial infections. Not only should you not swim when there are symptoms of infection, but you should also pay special attention when swimming, otherwise it is easy for the vagina to get infected and inflammation to occur. In fact, for women, in addition to skin diseases, eye diseases and other infectious diseases that are contraindicated in swimming, women should never go into the water if they are menstruating or if they have gynecological inflammation, especially during treatment. In addition, although there are no obvious signs of infection, if the body has some of the conditions of early gynecological inflammation, such as increased discharge, taste and color feel abnormal, or is in the period of inflammation treatment, also can not swim, otherwise it is easy to be infected by the bacteria in the water, aggravating the disease. Changing rooms in public swimming pools are usually common, like stools, toilets, lockers, inevitably stained with bacteria. So when changing clothes, women try not to let the skin directly touch the stool, and change down the clothes should be packed in a clean bag. Underwear is best wrapped in outerwear to pack. Don’t sit on the ground or bench by the pool. The ground by the pool is often stepped on by people’s bare feet, and the fungus on the feet is also on the ground, so if you sit on it, it will easily cause fungal vaginitis. So, when you want to sit at the poolside, you may want to put on a bath towel and then sit again, don’t let your skin directly touch the ground. Women should also remember to avoid swimming during their menstrual period, which should be avoided for 4 days before and after. What’s more, it’s very damaging to women’s bodies. Even if there is no gynecological inflammation, and not in the menstrual period of women, swimming should always pay attention to strengthen the awareness of self health protection.
