Here at Echo Woven, we\u00a0also are guilty of\u00a0going to\u00a0bed wearing our smartwatches, but we\u00a0probably will reconsider this habit after we\u00a0learn what potential problems it\u00a0may pose.\n\n

1. You may feel wrist pain.\n\n

If\u00a0you never take off your watch, the continuous\u00a0compression\u00a0of\u00a0the nerves at\u00a0the wrist might cause painful sensations. And if\u00a0your watch is\u00a0too bulky and heavy, and you wear it\u00a0too tight, this eventually may lead to\u00a0nerve damage. If\u00a0you feel any numbness or\u00a0tingling in\u00a0your wrist, try to\u00a0adjust and loosen the band or\u00a0give yourself a\u00a0break from wearing your watch.\n\n

2. It\u00a0might lead to\u00a0carpal tunnel syndrome.\n\n

If\u00a0you keep ignoring the discomfort caused by\u00a0wearing your watch all the time, it\u00a0may eventually lead to\u00a0quite unpleasant consequences, like carpal tunnel syndrome. This condition is\u00a0caused by\u00a0the constant compression of\u00a0nerves and can make you feel constant soreness and\u00a0weakness\u00a0in\u00a0your hand, even if\u00a0you\u00a0don\u2019t wear your watch anymore.\n\n

3. You may notice marks on\u00a0your wrist.\n\n

Although the band of\u00a0your watch should fit tightly enough to\u00a0prevent it\u00a0from sliding off your wrist, it\u00a0shouldn\u2019t press against your skin and leave any itchy imprints. Light marks on\u00a0your skin that go\u00a0away very quickly don\u2019t pose any problems, but if\u00a0you notice\u00a0red\u00a0marks that stay on\u00a0your skin for quite some time, it\u00a0might be\u00a0a\u00a0sign that you\u2019re wearing your watch too tightly. If\u00a0you don\u2019t loosen your watch strap or\u00a0give your skin a\u00a0chance to\u00a0breathe, it\u00a0may lead to\u00a0irritation and a\u00a0rash\u00a0in\u00a0the long run.\n\n

4. It\u00a0might give you muscle cramps.\n\n

If\u00a0you wear your favorite watch 24\/7, the constant compression from the band may restrict\u00a0blood circulation, causing numbness. The lack of\u00a0blood flow, in\u00a0turn, might lead to\u00a0painful muscle\u00a0cramps\u00a0and even affect how you perform at\u00a0your job.\n
