JAKARTA - Bathing in an improper way can cause you to get a skin infection that can be fatal. According to dermatologist Lindsey Zubritsky, posting videos on social media detailing three parts of your body that you may lack washing.

Written on the New York Post page, reported by ANTARA, Friday, November 3, local time, here are three body parts to watch out for more washing. The number one point is behind your ears. If you put your finger behind your ear and smell something or feel something, you should wash it more often.

Zubritsky warned that thetombe, sebum, and other head buildup are often collected behind the ear. The second most neglected place is the navel. If ignored, the navel can develop into an obhalolith, which is also known as a navel.

"This is a very common area to collect sweat, debris and dirt", Zubritsky said.

In fact, if you don't clean it enough, you'll have so much dust and dirt piling up that it can develop into navels like dirty pebbles. Finally, often someone ignores nail hygiene and doesn't wash the bottom of the nails regularly.

"When bathing, the bottom of the nail must be rubbed with a brush to remove dirt, debris and buildup," he explained.

Not cleaning the three areas can carry resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) bacteria, namely bacteria that are immune to some antibiotics. Untreated MRSA infections can cause sepsis, extreme and sometimes deadly body response, to an infection, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Symptoms of MRSA infection can be in the form of swelling, warmness, redness, and pain in the body.

If you continue to have bacterial infections in the skin, you can become a PRSA colony in that area, Zubritsky warned.

In addition, other dermatologists added not to neglect washing their feet and fingers between
