Dirty Thumbs.
12 Answers
In Mens Health magazine recent research has shown that the human thumb is a very dirty digit compared to the other digits. Overall 78 percent of men and 73 percent of females have dirtier thumbs than their other fingers.
This is due to when washing your hands with soap and the interlocking of fingers, the thumb is not included in individual scrubbing.
I thought what hogwash until I examined myself washing my hands, and yes my thumbs were left out in the ritual scrubbing of the hands!!!
Please try this at home and go through your normal routine and see if your thumbs are not given equal attention.
