During the winter months, cold and flu viruses are more prevalent and can cause coughs, often accompanied by congestion and a sore throat. Dry indoor air can also contribute to a cough's persistence. So, how can you prevent a winter cough before it starts?*

πŸ’™ Practise good hygiene: Always wash your hands properly, avoid touching your face, and use disinfectants when needed to remove germs from frequently touched surfaces.
πŸ’™ Stay hydrated: Drinking plenty of water and using a humidifier can help maintain moisture in your throat, providing relief from irritation caused by dry air.
πŸ’™ Maintain a healthy lifestyle: Eating well, getting sufficient sleep, and exercising regularly are essential to keep your immune system strong during winter.
