弹棉花作为一门传统手艺，自元代开始，已经流传久远。旧时很多农民因为生活所迫，走街串巷弹棉花，操作时整个人从头到脚全身都铺满了棉花尘絮。现在由于生活水平的提高，机械化工业的发展，手工弹棉花的人已经很少了。
弹棉花对人的身体健康非常不利，工匠长期处于高密度棉花尘絮中，很容易患尘肺病。距离我家100米有个小店弹棉花，飘浮的棉花尘絮被风吹散100米之外挂到我家窗子纱窗上。我家的窗子每个月请家政清洗，都常常被挂满棉花尘絮，那天天弹棉花的工匠肺上又吸入了多少灰尘呢？直到后来我们小区的绿化树长高了，才把棉花尘絮挡在了我们小区外面。
现在还在弹棉花的工匠健康意识太薄弱！
As a traditional craft, playing cotton has been popular for a long time since the Yuan Dynasty. In the old days, many farmers were forced by life to play cotton in the streets. During the operation, they were covered with cotton dust from head to toe. Nowadays, due to the improvement of living standards and the development of the mechanized industry, there are very few people who play cotton by hand.
Playing cotton is very unfavorable to people's health. Craftsmen have been in high-density cotton dust for a long time, and they are prone to pneumoconiosis. There is a small shop 100 meters away from my house to play cotton, and the floating cotton dust was blown away by the wind and hung on the screen window of my house 100 meters away. My windows are washed by housekeepers every month, and they are often covered with cotton dust. How much dust did the cotton craftsman inhale on the lungs that day? It was not until the green trees in our community grew taller that the cotton dust was blocked outside our community.
The health consciousness of the craftsman who is still playing cotton is too weak!
