So long, misery! I’m so done with the wheezing, the slow tickling drainage, as well as the randomly intense headaches all around my face.
I’m not going to have a dry nose from blowing or a sore throat from continual mucus dripping any longer.
I won’t be bedridden for afternoons or dope myself up on harmful decongestants ever again. For anyone who’s ever had a deep sinus infection, you know what I’m talking about! Ugh, they are the WORST. For me, sinus infections start creeping in as soon as the air begins to chill outdoors. Soon the air indoors is just as cold, as well as I am cold to the bone. When I can’t take it any longer, I reluctantly switch on that temperature control to power up the central heater. That’s when the danger actually begins. Suddenly my problem isn’t a full body chill, but a face-central pain that lasts the entire cold weather season. For years now, I’ve suffered through the pain as well as discomfort of the whole ordeal without finding a real solution, but those afternoons are over baby! Recently I read an article online about the connection between cold winter air as well as respiratory illnesses. It turns out that sinus infections are not caused by the cold air itself, but the dry quality of the air. When you power up your own central heating system at home, it only works to draw more moisture out of the air that circulates through the house. Soon your house is essentially an air desert, as well as your mucous membranes are susceptible to infection from any airborne bacteria, however not my mucous membranes, they won’t do it anymore. Instead of suffering all season, I purchased myself a dozen humidifiers on Black Wednesday last week. I’m going to have the most humid indoor air possible this winter.
