The most dangerous (for health) female professions

You will be surprised, but professions, which in modern society are considered exclusively female and completely harmless, can sometimes be very dangerous for both physical and mental health. A woman does not have to work as a stuntman, stand alone against an angry bull, or put out fires to put herself at serious risk. She can go to a regular office every day and not even suspect that she is returning from it a little less healthy.

Teacher and call center operator

At first glance, these professions seem very different, but in terms of the health risks they pose, they can be combined into one group. Firstly, stress against the background of constant hassle: for teachers because of negligent students, and for operators because of customers who call to swear. Secondly, throat diseases: both teachers and call-center operators, who have to say something all day, are more likely to suffer from sore throats, laryngitis, pharyngitis, etc. During a long conversation, the back wall of the pharynx quickly dries up, the protective functions of the mucous membrane are weakened, and dangerous bacteria multiply at an unprecedented rate.

By the way, teachers' vocal cords also suffer daily, because they, like singers, are not taught correct breathing. As a result, serious vocal loads lead to the ability to only whisper in class or into the telephone receiver.

Stewardess

It seems that there is no more romantic job, but, perhaps, it is also difficult to find more dangerous. Especially for those women who are in a position. The sky, the plane, the girl - this is not about a pregnant stewardess, it’s better to stay at home like that. The fact is that regular flights in the early stages of pregnancy most often lead to miscarriages or the development of defects in the unborn baby. But even if you are not expecting a baby, know that the constant change of time zones negatively affects your biorhythms.

Waitress

We will not talk about nervous customers for whom the salad is not fresh and the soup is too salty. This, of course, cannot please, but there are even more terrible things in the waitress profession. For example, the need to wear shoes with heels. Not in all establishments the administration tortures its employees, but in some there is a strict dress code that obliges girls to wear stiletto heels. Try to spin around like a squirrel in a wheel for a day, and even in high heels, and by the evening you will be ready to give everything so that the swelling from your legs subsides and your feet stop burning with fire. Not surprisingly, almost all experienced waitresses are “lucky” owners of varicose veins. There is little pleasant here.

Secretary and journalist

Women who spend all day at the computer and type on the keyboard a large amount of text (outgoing letters, articles), very often face incomprehensible pain, tingling and numbness of the wrist. It seems to them that this is nonsense, but in fact, everything is pretty serious. People call this disease tunnel syndrome, and doctors prefer to say "pinching of the median nerve in the carpal tunnel." Almost all office workers suffer from it. When you are typing a lot of text on the keyboard and constantly clicking the mouse, your hands are in an uncomfortable static position, and your wrists are tense. In this case, the monotonous movements of the fingers lead to the following: the moving tendons injure the median nerve, which controls the thumb, index and middle fingers. If you do not take breaks from work and do not engage in articular gymnastics for the arms and hands, then you run the risk of bringing to the point that the pain will intensify, will not leave you even at night, and then surgical intervention may be required.

Shop assistant

These poor things understand the waitresses very well, because they also have to spend the whole working day in high heels. This is especially true of employees of women's clothing stores, as well as cosmetics and perfumery. A handsome consultant is the face of the company, so he must shine. Few people think about what happens to the feet of a consultant at the moment of "shining". And the following happens: due to the fact that the girl stands in one place for a long time, the muscles of the legs do not contract and do not push the blood that flows from the bottom up, overcoming the force of gravity. As a result, blood begins to stagnate in the veins. If they contain the so-called "lazy" valves, which do not cope with their task and allow blood to flow down, then the vessels swell and rise to the surface of the skin in bumpy snakes. You probably know that surgery is often required in such cases.

Actress

We think that famous theater and film actresses eat only healthy food, but in reality this is not the case. Most of them suffer from serious stomach problems, and all because of the food that is fed to the team during the filming of TV shows and movies. In the acting environment, it is even jokingly called film feed. Fatty soups, pasta with meat of dubious quality or cutlets, in which there is only a smell of meat, and compote - everything is like in an institute cafeteria. We must try very hard to stay healthy and slim with such a high-calorie and unhealthy diet.

Huge physical activity negatively affects the reproductive function of the female body.

Sportswoman

Women who have dedicated their lives to professional sports know that it is only in appearance that they are so healthy. In fact, huge physical activity negatively affects the reproductive function of the female body. For example, many skaters cannot get pregnant for years, because they constantly have to lose weight, stay in a cold room for a long time, they get injured, their joints, muscles, heart and stomach are worn out. It is difficult to imagine that a woman in such a state could calmly endure and give birth to a child. Therefore, it is not uncommon for professional athletes to end their careers to begin with, restore their health, and only then become mothers.
