5 Mistakes We All Make When Using Smartphones

Smartphones have benefits and drawbacks. But in many respects, its drawbacks outweigh its benefits. And if caution is not exercised, its benefits could harm our health in a number of ways. So in order to prevent these issues from occurring, I've compiled the faults we make when using our smartphones and solutions to them. We commit the following errors when using smartphones.

1. Prolonged exposure to blue light


The hormone that controls the body's sleep cycle is suppressed by the blue light from the smartphone screen. In addition to causing headaches, eye and sight problems, and blue light exposure. Attempt to lower your phone's blue light setting.


2. Applying a weak signal


Your health could be harmed by using a smartphone with a poor signal. To avoid any health issues, try to use your phone with a strong or high signal.

3. Continuing to hold it against your skin


Your skin can readily absorb heat from your smartphone when it is in close proximity to you, which could damage your skin.


4. Doing so at night


A transmitter and receiver using electromagnetic waves are built into smartphones. Furthermore, if exposed for a prolonged period of time, these waves are powerful and may harm the brain. Try to entirely switch off, leave in another room, or put your phone in airplane mode while you're sleeping.

5. Adopting poor posture while gazing at the screen


Your cervical spine is under stress if you bend your neck forward to look at the screen of your phone, and that tension will steadily worsen over time. And after a few days, the weight your neck feels could be five times more than the weight of your actual head. Furthermore, neck discomfort and incorrect posture may result from this. Solution: Try to hold your phone at eye level and maintain a straight back. We commit those errors when utilizing our smartphones. And the sentence and paragraphs above correct those errors.
