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.

后来，医生对彭先生复查的时候，才发现了他每天闻袜子的习惯。于是马上意识到彭先生的肺部真菌感染可能就是因为吸入了埋在他脏袜子潮湿纤维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.

确诊后，随即，彭先生就被送进医院治疗了。幸运的是，这个“袜子嗅探器”有望完全恢复。

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.

在这篇资讯报道在中国的社交网站微博迅速传播之后，人们发现其实有这个闻袜子倾向的人不止彭先生一个。

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

噢，不！我应该停止去闻我的那个穿了一天的袜子！”一个用户评论道。

It sounds like a great idea.

这个点子听起来还不错。
