If you play with your phone before going to bed, you will suffer 4 kinds of pain!

1. Affects sleep quality

Many people like to play with their mobile phones before going to bed. Although it is very comfortable, it has a great impact on sleep and health.

Playing with your phone before bedtime not only disrupts your sleep, causes sleep delays, and makes it difficult to fall asleep, but also causes frequent awakenings at night. The blue light from many electronic devices can change the release of melatonin, causing a disruption in your biological clock and reducing your sleep quality.

Therefore, people with poor self-control should calculate the time they play with their mobile phones before going to bed. After 11 o'clock, they can fall asleep better by playing with their mobile phones less or not at all.

2. Induce cervical spondylosis

If you keep the same posture for a long time while playing with your phone, it will cause some damage to your spine. If you lie down for a long time while playing with your phone, your spine will be in an excessively bent and twisted state, which will induce cervical spondylosis over time.

3. Causes dull skin and aging

In a dim environment, the brightness of the screen shines on the facial skin, which can easily cause oily facial skin, clogged pores, and acne. Staying up late for a long time playing with mobile phones can also easily lead to melanin deposition in the skin, thus forming spots.

4. Double Chin

When you lower your head to play with your phone, your neck is under greater pressure than usual. Keeping your head down will accelerate the aging of epidermal cells and deepen neck wrinkles. In addition, gravity and the force of lowering your head will cause your lower jaw to relax, which can easily lead to a double chin.

Be careful when playing with your phone in bed!

1. Avoid lying on your side or prone while playing with your phone

Lying sideways puts the greatest pressure on the left and right eyes, which can easily cause vision deviation; lying prone can easily cause difficulty in blood circulation to the elbows and brain, and can easily cause inertial ischemia above the cervical spine. Compared with other postures, lying on your back while playing with a phone has relatively little impact on health.

2. Don’t turn on the desk lamp when playing with your phone

The body will begin to secrete proteases that inhibit melanin after 11:30 p.m. However, if you turn on the desk lamp, the extra light source will disrupt the body's normal secretion and affect metabolism, which is not good for health in the long run.

3. Don’t play with your phone for more than an hour and a half

It is easy to forget the time when playing with your phone before going to bed, missing the best time for your body to rest and affecting your body metabolism. Therefore, it is recommended that you try to limit the time you play with your phone before going to bed to less than one and a half hours.

Mobile phones are good, but don’t play with them too much! Playing with them for a while can make you happy, but playing with them for a long time can hurt your health! Remember to protect your health!
