KEEPING cleanliness must be initiated from home. Especially a very fundamental part of the bathroom. If neglected, can cause illness and even death.

Based on the dictionary Wikipedia, the bathroom is a room where someone can take a bath to cleanse her body. Sometimes it also includes the sink for hand washing and toilet facilities. Unfortunately, space is often overlooked. In fact, if dirty, users also will not automatically clean up.

According to Regional Anesthesia Specialist Physician, Prof. Darto Satoto SPAN (K), a disease caused by dirty toilets can be derived from bacteria or germs that clings to the inside. In fact, there is a bacteria that causes the death of a dirty toilet.

She said that dirty bathroom can cause the bacteria E-coli. Bacteria that get into the vessels, then a severe disease that can cause infections throughout the body thoroughly. “By default, these bacteria can cause death,” said Darto listed as a Lecturer at the Faculty of Medicine, University of Indonesia on toilet cleanliness campaign with the theme “It’s Healthy Dry.”

The cause of the bacteria, he added, could be from an animal like a fly perched on a dirty bathroom. The bacteria are transmitted through food which inhibited flies, and then consumed. Because the food is dirty, it can lead to hepatitis A.

In transmission, E-coli bacteria regardless of age. Everyone can be affected. “Currently, many Acehnese children more exposed to the bacteria E-coli caused the tsunami was the cause of dirty water and lack of clean water,” said Darto.

Chairman of the Indonesian Toilet Association (ATI) Naning Adiwoso said, in comparison, which requires the user to squat toilets, the use of the toilet seat vulnerable to cause disease.

“The bathroom was dirty and the use of the toilet seat is filthy, the fungus can be contagious in the buttocks of others who use the toilet next, like kandidia,” said Naning is also a veterinarian specialist field of livestock.

There are two types of fungal diseases that can arise, namely lower leg and kandidias tinea. Tinea lower leg rash characterized by slightly reddish in color. In case that was long, it will be accompanied by a blackish color in certain areas.

Meanwhile, marked with bright red patches and redness around the area looks like small spots scattered around him. “Other causes can also be caused by the use of soap containing antiseptic, which makes the survival of bacteria,” explained Darto.

Naning added that sometimes people often feel not aware if the bathroom, which serves to cleanse the body, not just clean the place.

This can be seen from the bathroom, which is often found in a state of dirty, smelly, dark, and airless. More depressing, the bathroom in such circumstances are often found in public bathrooms, where people must pay for the maintenance of cleanliness.

“The more people who give priority to cleaning the toilet, getting healthy is also the Indonesian people,” added Naning
