Can Using Toilet Paper From A Public Toilet Cause Any Infection?
I used a public restroom that didn’t have a toilet paper roller. So people have to physically hold the roll of toilet paper. I got trapped and had to use the toilet and the toilet paper. Any infections I can get from this toilet paper? I try to avoid public restrooms and am extremely disgusted by them. It looked like the toilet paper was drying( it was beside the sink) so while people were washing their hands it got wet or worse maybe it had urine on it any thing I should be worried about. Hopefully the last time I have to use a public restroom
