Turning off the light and playing with your mobile phone will cause 8 major injuries. Don’t forget to do these protective actions when playing with your mobile phone before bed

——The furthest distance in the world is not between life and death, but when I sit in front of you, you are playing with your mobile phone.

In this era of being bombarded by all kinds of information every day, mobile phones gradually occupy our spare time, eating and playing, partying, going to the toilet, riding in the car, and even turning off the lights at night to continue playing

Little do we know that mobile phones in the dark are like “dark killers”, slowly eroding our bodies, and temporary entertainment requires us to pay a heavy health price.

how much do you know about the dangers of playing mobile phones before bed

1. Disturb work and rest time

Taking your mobile phone to bed will delay your sleep time indefinitely, and disturbing your work and rest time will lead to insufficient sleep and loss of memory the next day.

2. Reduce sleep quality

In the long run, lack of enough sleep will lead to the accumulation of neurotoxins, which will make it more difficult for us to get good sleep quality.

3. Reduce work efficiency

Often the next day when we delay going to bed because of playing mobile phones, our spirit will be insufficient, our attention will not be concentrated, and our work and learning efficiency will be greatly reduced.

4. Prone to depression

After long-term exposure to mobile phone light at night, melatonin levels are kept, and the body’s biological clock is turned off, making it easier to suffer from depression.

5. Increase the risk of obesity

By disrupting melatonin secretion and rest time, cell phone light will also disrupt the secretion of hormones that control hunger levels, potentially increasing the risk of obesity.

6. Cause visual impairment

Some existing evidence shows that playing mobile phones in the dark will lead to retinal overwork, which may damage vision, suffer from myopia, astigmatism, vision deviation and other eye problems.

7. Problems with cervical vertebrae

It is not good for cervical vertebra to play mobile phone with your head bowed for a long time. The posture of half leaning on the head of the bed is more harmful to cervical vertebrae and lumbar vertebrae. In the long run, it will also cause nervous system damage and lead to spinal diseases.

8. Easy to hit yourself

When you lie down and play with your mobile phone at night, it’s easy to hit your chest and face if you don’t take it properly. Especially now that mobile phones are getting bigger and bigger, our chances of being hit will also increase.

how to minimize the harm of playing mobile phones before going to bed

No matter how many hazards are listed, there are still many people who can’t resist the charm of mobile phones and will still take them to bed and have a good time. Then please pay attention to these five points to minimize their damage.

1. Look at the mobile phone in supine position

Since playing mobile phones on one’s side or on one’s stomach can cause damage to eyes, cervical vertebrae and other parts, we should try our best to avoid it. You can use a pillow or a small quilt to raise your back to play with your mobile phone. This posture will not make you feel tired, but also reduce the damage to your health.

2. Adjust the brightness of the mobile phone to the minimum

Unlocking the mobile phone after turning off the light can bring dazzling pain. I believe everyone has experienced it. You’d better turn the brightness of your mobile phone to the lowest at night. In addition, when opening the app, you need to switch the mobile phone to the night mode, select cold colors, avoid warm colors, and reduce visual fatigue.

3. Keep 30cm away

When using the mobile phone, keep a distance of 30 ~ 50cm between your eyes and your mobile phone. When you feel tired, close your eyes or do simple eye exercises. Look at the distance for a few seconds, then look at the tip of your nose for a few seconds. Cycle until your eyes are not tired, and then use the mobile phone.

4. Turn on a small lamp to accompany you

When you turn off the light to play with your mobile phone at night, it is easy to have adjustment spasms. The main symptom is temporary blurred vision. The contrast between a bright screen and a dark environment is too large, which will make your eyes tired. Therefore, it is better to turn on a light at the head of the bed when playing with your mobile phone at night.

5. Control the time of playing mobile phone

It’s almost impossible to ask you not to play with your mobile phone before going to bed. Then control your time, pay attention to your rest time, and don’t stay up late because of playing mobile phones. Otherwise, no matter how well the above protective measures are done, they will still cause great harm to the body.

But in the final analysis, I don’t recommend that you play with your mobile phone after turning off the light. It’s late at night. Say good night to your mobile phone.
