Dry air is also a throat irritant, and inhaling it can make the swelling of the throat worse. Staying in a room with air that’s dry can make your throat feel scratchy and even more painful. To solve this, grab yourself a humidifier.
Humidifiers are machines that blow moisture into the air. When the air is less dry, it makes it easier and more pleasant to breathe in. This soothes calms symptoms of sore throat, shortening recovery time and making your ordeal less bothersome.
Humidified air also makes mucus easier to expel, taking with it the nasty toxins secreted by the bacteria. The more mucus you can loosen, the easier it will be for your throat to recover.
