The navel eye is a magical existence
Some people say that picking the navel will cause diarrhea;
Some say that the navel eye connects the intestines;
Some people say that the navel eye button will leak air;
Is this really the case?
The navel is the first scar on everyone's body.
When the child is in the mother's belly, the umbilical cord is a tube connecting the mother and the fetus, and this tube is fed from the mother to the fetus, so that the fetus continuously absorbs nutrients and then slowly develops.
When the child is born, because such a mediator relationship is not needed, the doctor will cut the tube short, and the part of the umbilical cord that remains on the child's body will naturally fall off, leaving a scar. This scar is the navel.
Is the navel connected to the intestines?
The navel is a dead end that doesn't make sense. It does not go straight to the intestines as the legend says, but is next to the peritoneum.
There is no subcutaneous fat and muscle under the skin of the navel, the fascia layer is also very thin, and the navel is the closest place to the internal organs of the abdomen, and it is relatively close to the blood vessels and nerves.
What's the dirt in your navel?
The black substance of the navel eye is actually a mixture of cells shed by the skin and impurities such as sweat and dust, and then precipitated in it.
Since the location of the navel is relatively hidden, we may often forget it when we take a bath. Over time, the dirty things inside pile up more, we will be seen by the naked eye, and sometimes there will be a peculiar smell, very unpleasant smell.
Can the navel be buttoned?
Yes, but with moderation.
The navel is very delicate, the skin is thin and tender, uneven, and if it is broken, it is easy to infect.
Moreover, although the function of the umbilical cord has been degraded, the nerve reflexes of the internal organs still exist, and frequently picking the navel will stimulate the internal organ nerves, affecting the stomach and intestines, weakening the digestive function, and some people will also have abdominal pain.
If you must cut it, remember to clean your hands first and be gentle.
How to clean the navel?
When you take a bath, you can rinse the navel eye with the water of the sprinkler, and the dirty things inside the navel eye are wet with blisters, and it is easier to fall off.
It should be noted that after cleaning, the position of the navel eye should also be wiped clean, so that the environment of the navel eye can be avoided from being humid and it is easier to breed bacteria and dirt.
