What health issues should you pay attention to when riding shared bicycles?


As a product of the Internet O2O (online to offline) model, I believe everyone is familiar with shared bicycles.

Users only need to scan the QR code on the bicycle to unlock the bike, ride away, and then park it on the roadside when they arrive.

This new type of transportation successfully fills the blind spots of shared online car-hailing services such as Didi Chuxing and cleverly solves the "last mile" problem.

Besides the convenience, have you ever thought about the health issues of riding shared bikes?

Shared bicycles solve the travel problems of students and office workers, and also meet the current residents' love for a certain amount of outdoor sports and satisfy their needs for leisure and fitness.

With a shared bike, I no longer have to worry about traffic jams on the roads, I won’t be late for work or school, and I can also lose weight. Isn’t that killing two birds with one stone?

While providing convenience to citizens, shared bicycles also alleviate problems such as urban environmental pollution.

However, if you are someone who does not exercise or ride a bike for a long time, Dongdongmiao still recommends that you do not try it easily.

Patients with insufficient muscle strength, arthritis, bone spurs, and patellar softening should not ride suddenly, as it may easily cause discomfort or aggravate their condition.

Patients with long-term low back pain and cervical spondylosis should pay attention to their riding posture.

For teenagers, their bones are still developing, so they are not suitable for excessive riding, especially those who are in the period of rapid growth and development. Children who have experienced growing pains should be more careful. If they are not careful, they will develop chondritis or ligament end sports injuries.

People with a certain degree of mysophobia are even more afraid of the risk of contracting infectious diseases when riding shared bicycles.
Since they can be found everywhere and anyone can ride them, will they spread certain diseases?

In fact, the transmission conditions of many infectious diseases are quite high. Simple contact like riding a shared bicycle generally will not transmit any disease.

However, it is skin diseases that need to be worried about.

If you are really worried, when riding a shared bicycle, you can first wipe the handlebars and seat with wet wipes or disinfectant wipes, and you can also pay special attention to wiping the seat before use.

Of course, the brakes should also be checked before riding. Safe riding is also a guarantee of health, and I don’t need Dongdong Miao to remind you of this.
