What happens when you do not clean your bedding regularly
Allergic symptoms:
Many people are allergic to dust mites, so sleeping in a bed full of them can result in allergy symptoms. “Dust mites can lead to itching and trigger asthma flare-ups and seasonal allergies,” Dr. Vij notes.
Breathing issues: If you already have asthma, you’re more prone to a dust mite allergy. But even if you don’t, sharing your bed with these little guys can bring on symptoms like wheezing and whistling.
Rash: “If too many dust mites come in contact with your body, you can end up with a rash,” Dr. Vij adds. Some bacteria can cause rashes, too.
Eczema: Eczema is one of the most common types of skin rashes, driven by a combination of the dryness of your skin and overactive bacterial colonies on your skin. “By allowing bacteria to live in harmony on your sheets and get on your skin when you hop in bed, you could be making your eczema worse — or allowing it to start in the first place,” he says.
Folliculitis: When you lie down in a bacteria-laden bed, you open yourself up to folliculitis, an inflammation, infection or irritation of the hair follicle.
