Today at school I went to the urinal/toilet and after urination I forgot to wash my hands. Then I went to the can note because my friends were calling me to have food. Hurriedly I went there and Without washing hands I ate cake and rice with my hands. Will anything happen to me? Will it cause any type of disease?

The genital area is very often contaminated with our fecal bacteria, so after any contact with it we should wash our hands well, so not to transmit fecal bacteria to others through contaminating their food/drink. Its important to wash hands with Liquid Hand Wash after peeing .You may contaminate food and other things you touch. Not washing your hands can also cause Hepatitis A, which shows itself with yellowing of the skin, dark urine, nausea, and vomiting. Diarrhea,cold and cough etc.
