Painful, scratchy and irritating sore throats can make it difficult to eat, swallow and talk for anyone, including those who suffer from allergic reactions.
What causes a sore throat?
Viruses and bacterial infections are frequently to blame.
Viruses - More than 200 different viruses are known to cause the symptoms of the common cold, including sore throat. These viruses attack the mucus membranes of the throat, tonsils (tonsillitis) or both.
Watery eyes, runny nose and sneezing, nasal congestion, itching, coughing, wheezing and difficulty breathing, headaches, sore throats and fatigue are all symptoms associated with biological pollutants
Bacteria -- When Group A streptococci infect the throat, they cause pharyngitis, which is a painful inflammation of the throat.
Indoor air pollution, in the homes are being recognised as a serious health problem. Researchers have discovered the air pollution inside your home can be much worse than the air pollution outside your home. Most people spend 90 percent of their time indoors exacerbating the problems.
Biological pollutants found in most homes include animal dander, dust mites, mildew, moulds, bacteria, and viruses.
