Since the number of products that can measure sleep data and have long battery life has increased, it seems that more and more people will wear them 24 hours a day, except for occasional charging. smart watch.
It may be a source of trouble that the sunburn marks remain clearly in the middle of summer, but other than that, there may be other people who are suffering from skin troubles in the area where they are worn.
In this article, I would like to introduce the "need to rest your wrist" recommended by Fitbit on the official website.
It is necessary to take off the device and rest your wrist
The above is the page about "Wearing and caring for Fitbit" on Fitbit's official website.
There is a lot of useful information out there, so here are the highlights.
If you feel discomfort or irritation while wearing it, we recommend loosening the belt.
If the discomfort persists, remove the device and rest your wrist.
In general, after prolonged wear, it's important to take off your device for an hour or so to give your wrist periodic rests.
For example, you can take it off when taking a shower in the bath to give your wrist a rest.
Water-resistant products can be worn while showering, but removing them from your wrist will prevent soap, shampoo, conditioner, etc. from sticking to your device.
These substances can damage the product in the long term and can even cause dermatitis.
People with eczema, allergies, asthma, or sensitive skin may be more susceptible to dermatitis from wearable devices such as smartwatches.
Remove the device if you experience symptoms or discomfort such as redness, pain, tingling, numbness, tingling, or stiffness in your wrist or hand.
If these symptoms persist, contact customer support or consider seeing a dermatologist!
Wash your belt and wrists regularly.
It is especially good to wash after exercising, sweating, or when washing your hands.
When cleaning belts and devices, do not use cleaning agents such as hand soap, body soap, dish soap, hand sanitizer, cleaning wipes, or household cleaners.
These substances are difficult to remove and can get into the belt and irritate the skin.
You should only use water and a non-soap cleaner (such as Cetaphil) to clean your belt.
Also, avoid getting sunscreen or insect repellent on your device to reduce the risk of product damage and skin irritation. Remove the device when applying these creams or sprays.
Even if your device is water or splash resistant, if your device gets wet, remove it, dry it well, and put it back on!
