The causes of a chronic sore throat can be the result of the dry air in your home. Dry air is zapped from your home because of air conditioners and heaters that lower the humidity in your home.
Airborne allergens and other airborne irritants due to the lower humidity can be other causes of chronic sore throat. Those include dust and airborne viruses.
Those above irritants can thrive in dry indoor environments and contribute chronic sore throat.
Aerosols sprayed from your mouth when you talk, sneeze, sing, laugh, etc. change in size depending on the amount of moisture in the air. In lower levels of moisture, the droplets become smaller in size, which may sound good. Unfortunately, these smaller droplets can travel farther in the air and hang in the air longer than larger droplets making them easier to transmit.
Managing the humidity in your home can help with the causes of chronic sore throat. Airborne viruses, dust, and dry air can all be culprits for your dry throat. Using an Aprilaire humidifier can help you easily manage the dry air in your home to help prevent chronic sore throat.
An air purifier will also help capture airborne contaminants that flow through your home. Capturing these contaminants helps make sure the air in your home is healthy.
