Proper hand washing plays a very important part in staying healthy. In addition to preventing the spread of infectious diseases that may be transmitted through contact, hand washing also removes any dirt or soil that may have accumulated throughout the day. So it is important to know the ways in which you should not wash your hands. They are:

• Fast Washing: A thorough wash of 20 seconds is recommended to kill all the germs present. Use that time to clean all surfaces, including the backs of your hands, wrists, between your fingers and under your fingernails.
• Unclean Soap dispenser: Washing hands using soap from soap dispenser that hasn’t been cleaned is of no use. Soap dispenser is a favorite hideout for the germs.
• Dirty Soap: Generally, washing hands with soap is acceptable way of cleaning but there are chances that the soap has some of the germs left after use.
• Hand sanitizers on greasy hands: Don’t use hand sanitizers when your hands are dirty and covered with oil.
• Washing hands only before eating: Diseases can be spread if they are in contact with the eyes, nose and mouth. So make sure you wash your hands when you come from outside.
