Surviving the weather for 2 ;)

Many thanks to every one who has taken the pain to read and reach out thus far. Its really encouraging:)

Seems the harmattan this year is something else hence this post.

Because of the rather dry weather, a lot of people would be coming down with catarrh, cough, allergies etc. In order not to fall victim;

• Wash your hands as frequently as possible- I know the weather is quite dry, you should also have your moisturiser on you, you don't want to be going about looking all ashy and dry. Hand washing goes a long way.
• Try to have a balanced meal, it helps boost your immune system which wards off infections.

As for those of us who are already down with a cold;

• Lots of warm drinks as frequently as possible,
• Regular cough mixture if you do have a cough. usually it should be about a table spoon morning, noon and night. If you are coughing up something, or have an associated chest pain or trouble breathing, you may need to check up with your doctor.
• Vitamin C -morning , noon and night
• Throat pains- warm water and salt gargle, some paracetamol for the pain, lots of water and juice, and some strepsils should do the magic. However if your symptoms persist, you should check with your doctor.
• Ear pains, please have your doctor look at it:)

Don't forget to dress warm, lotion deep, and gloss your lips:)

Have a cold free week. and please don't be ashy
