The Dangers Of Tight and Sagging Pants

Tight or “skinny” jeans may be fashionable for some men, but could they be affecting your health? According to a survey of 2,000 men, tight-fitting jeans can cause urinary tract infections, twisted testicles, bladder weakness and long-term health consequences.

“I have seen several cases of men who have twisted their testicles due to wearing jeans that are far too tight. My advice would be to make sure you leave plenty of room around the groin area and that your pants and trousers feel comfortable so you’re not being restricted in any way. Please don’t put style before health.”
