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為怪癖而對自己的健康造成了嚴重的危害。

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，彭先生呼吸時感到胸部發(fā)緊，還咳嗽。最終因為嚴重的胸痛被送進了醫(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)生對他進行進一步的檢查，發(fā)現(xiàn)彭先生的肺部有嚴重的真菌感染。

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)生對彭先生復查的時候，才發(fā)現(xiàn)了他每天聞襪子的習慣。于是馬上意識到彭先生的肺部真菌感染可能就是因為吸入了埋在他臟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，彭先生就被送進醫(yī)院治療了。幸運的是，這個“襪子嗅探器”有望完全恢復。

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)其實有這個聞襪子傾向的人不止彭先生一個。

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

噢，不！我應該停止去聞我的那個穿了一天的襪子！”一個用戶評論道。

It sounds like a great idea.
這個點子聽起來還不錯。
