On the one hand, when sweating, the pores expand, and the spirit will take advantage of the opportunity & lsquo; to escape & rsquo;, bacteria also have & lsquo; invasion Channel & rsquo;; on the other hand, people are easy to catch cold when they are cold, which may cause damage to muscles and joints, and even weaken their physique.
