8 Disgusting Things That Happen When You Stay In Sweaty Clothes

Last Updated on December 29, 2020

7. Red bumps

We know leggings are the best invention ever! Small, easy to pack, super comfy, and they make your butt look great. However, tight workout clothes can damage this ass of yours if you wear them for too long. Our body needs to breathe, and our blood must circulate, that’s why we should always wear loose, baggy clothes whenever we have the chance. Tight clothes such as leggings, jeans, tights, only make your body suffer, especially if you decide to sweat in this type of clothing. Why? Have you heard of the term ” folliculitis”? It appears to be acne, but it isn’t since it’s an infection derived from hair follicles leading to acne-like, red bumps that might itch a little. It’s more likely to appear on the leg area and butt, so if you appreciate your smooth, healthy skin, consider getting some joggers or loose shorts for workouts and keep those leggings for casual wear.

8. Yeast infection

This last one is directed to the ladies, even though yeast infections are easy to treat, they can be quite uncomfortable because of the itchy feeling or even burning sensation it might cause. Since yeast likes to live in sweaty places, it’s not a great idea to support and do nothing about these places on our body, especially our private parts. This particular area can be more sensitive to infections, which means we should be more careful about it so we can avoid possible vaginal infection. Always carry around new clean pants but also clean underwear. If you’re wearing a long skirt or some loose pants, you can skip the underwear. However, make sure always to wear underwear, if you’re wearing jeans or thighs, so the clothes are not in direct contact with your private part. Now that you are aware of what happens to your body when you stay in sweaty clothes, you should know it’s always best to save some time and wash yourself and your wet clothes immediately after sweating, either after a workout or just a sunny day.
