A Man in China Hospitalised After Sniffing His Own Socks Every Day.
中國一名男子因每天聞自己的襪子而入院。

Everybody has their own weird, idiosyncratic habits that probably don't make sense to anybody else, but one Chinese man's tendency for personal daily weirdness turned out to be a serious danger to his health.?
每個(gè)人都有著他人可能無法理解的特殊癖好,但是有一位中國男子卻因?yàn)楣竹倍鴮ψ约旱慕】翟斐闪藝?yán)重的危害。

The man in question, a 37-year-old named Peng in reports, had apparently developed a strange custom of sniffing his worn, dirty socks every day after he finished work.
報(bào)道中的這名37歲的男子姓彭,他已經(jīng)養(yǎng)成了每天完成工作后都要嗅他的又臟又臭的襪子習(xí)慣了。

Peng ended up being admitted to hospital with a serious bout of chest pains, feeling tightness in his chest while breathing, and also coughing.
然后,彭先生呼吸時(shí)感到胸部發(fā)緊,還咳嗽。最終因?yàn)閲?yán)重的胸痛被送進(jìn)了醫(yī)院。

Doctors treated the patient for a suspected case of pneumonia, but after the symptoms continued – with no improvement in his condition – further examinations by doctors revealed Peng had developed a serious fungal infection in his lungs.
醫(yī)生把他診為不明原因肺炎病例來進(jìn)行治療,但是之后他的病情卻沒有得到好轉(zhuǎn),癥狀也還是有。于是醫(yī)生對他進(jìn)行進(jìn)一步的檢查,發(fā)現(xiàn)彭先生的肺部有嚴(yán)重的真菌感染。

It was only later when doctors re-interviewed Peng that they found out about his daily sock-sniffing ritual, and realised his diagnosis of pulmonary fungal disease could have been caused by inhaling fungal spores embedded in the dank fibres of his dirty socks.
后來,醫(yī)生對彭先生復(fù)查的時(shí)候,才發(fā)現(xiàn)了他每天聞襪子的習(xí)慣。于是馬上意識到彭先生的肺部真菌感染可能就是因?yàn)槲肓寺裨谒K襪子潮濕纖維中的真菌孢子造成的。

Once the infection was diagnosed, Peng was hospitalised and treated for the condition. Fortunately, the sock-sniffer is expected to make a full recovery.
確診后,隨即,彭先生就被送進(jìn)醫(yī)院治療了。幸運(yùn)的是,這個(gè)“襪子嗅探器”有望完全恢復(fù)。

After media reports of the infection went viral on Chinese social site Weibo, it became clear that Peng isn't the only one with a perverse predisposition to sock sniffing.
在這篇新聞報(bào)道在中國的社交網(wǎng)站微博迅速傳播之后,人們發(fā)現(xiàn)其實(shí)有這個(gè)聞襪子傾向的人不止彭先生一個(gè)。

"Oh, no! Maybe I should stop sniffing my socks after wearing them for an entire day!" one user commented.“

噢,不!我應(yīng)該停止去聞我的那個(gè)穿了一天的襪子!”一個(gè)用戶評論道。

It sounds like a great idea.
這個(gè)點(diǎn)子聽起來還不錯(cuò)。
