Tight jeans also increase skin irritation, fungal infections and discomfort. This is also called ‘skinny jeans syndrome’.

Question- Does wearing tight jeans affect the vaginal health of women?
answer- Yes, wearing tight jeans for a long time can affect the vaginal health of women. Wearing very tight clothes does not allow air to pass through, due to which sweat is not able to dry. Due to this, moisture remains, which increases the risk of growth of bacteria and fungus. This can cause itching, burning and yeast infection.
Urologist Dr. Shivram explains that repeated rubbing of tight jeans on the skin can also cause skin irritation. Therefore, loose and cotton clothes are safer for vaginal health.
Question: How do tight jeans increase the risk of yeast infection and bacterial infection?
answer- Yes, wearing very tight clothes causes sweat and moisture to accumulate in the private area. This can cause yeast infection, itching and burning. Bacterial infection may also occur.
Apart from this, excessive pressure of tight jeans affects blood circulation, which increases discomfort. Wearing tight jeans occasionally is not harmful, but for everyday wear, loose, cotton and comfortable clothes are safer.

Question- What is ‘Skinny Jeans Syndrome’ and what are its symptoms?
answer- ‘Skinny Jeans Syndrome’ is not a disease. This is a common term for health problems caused by wearing jeans that are too tight.
- Jeans being too tight puts extra pressure on the nerves and muscles.
- This may cause numbness, tingling, pain or burning in the feet.
- In some cases, there is swelling in the feet, which can cause difficulty in walking.
- The problem may increase if you sit for a long time or work by bending.

Question: Why do tight jeans affect male fertility?
answer- This increases the temperature around the testis. For sperm to form and remain safe, the testicular temperature should be slightly lower than normal body temperature.
If the temperature around the testicles remains high for a long time, the sperm count may decrease. The ability to move sperm decreases.
- Testiculars do not function properly due to affected blood circulation.
- It can have a greater impact on people who work sitting for long periods of time.
Question- Does wearing tight jeans increase the problems of waist, knees and back pain?
answer- Dr. Shivram says that continuously wearing tight jeans can increase the problems of waist, knees and back pain.
- Tight jeans limit the natural movement of the body.
- This puts more pressure on the muscles and joints while sitting, walking and bending.
- Due to pressure on the waist and hips, the spine does not remain straight, which can increase lower back pain.
- Tight fitting clothes around the knees prevent the joints from moving properly, which can cause pain and stiffness.
- If this condition persists for a long time, the risk of muscle strain and posture related problems increases.
Question- Does wearing tight jeans increase acidity, gas or digestive problems?
answer- Yes, this may increase digestive problems.
- Wearing very tight clothes puts pressure on the stomach and waist, which increases the pressure inside the stomach.
- Due to pressure, the acid produced in the stomach to digest food can come upwards, which is called acid reflux.
- Prolonged pressure also affects the normal movement of the digestive system, which can cause problems like gas and flatulence.
- These problems may worsen after eating food.
Question- Which people should especially avoid wearing tight jeans?
answer- Wearing tight jeans for a long time is harmful for everyone, but some people should especially avoid it. Such as-
- Those who already have back pain, knee pain or nerve related problems.
- Those who have acidity, gas or digestion problems.
- Women who have a history of frequent vaginal infections.
- Men who have fertility problems.
- Those who work sitting for long hours.
- Those who are overweight.
