My stubbornness with catarrh

Hey beautiful people!

Special greetings to y'all. Hope the weather is treating you good over there? For the last four days, the weather has been friendly with coolness...only nighy though because there have been rainfall and sleep has been so sweet. Also, the blazing of sun has never reduced during day time, the sun still shines as if rain never dropped.

My today's topic is all about catarrh and how it's been working hand to hand with me🤔

CATARRH is a medical condition in which a lotof mucus is produced in your nose and throat. You may get catarrh when you have a cold. This is commonly known as running nose

I'm the type that like self medication (yes I know it's not good) and don't oftentimes go for check ups whenever a sickness knocks(that's because I seldom fall sick). I noticed some years ago that I suffer from catarrh symptoms on a regular basis, sometimes once in a month, twice a month and most times once in two months.

People said it's normal for someone to have catarrh once in a while because of environment which I agree too because cold weather and dusty environment causes people to experience the inconvenience of this short time illness...but that's different from my system.

People said also that people that suffer catarrh regularly, have a substance in them that's contradicting the system and anytime the substance shakes or faces cold weather, the catarrh manifest outside.... this is more of a medical stuff but i think my own manifestation is beyond this.

Just like I said earlier, I'm the self medication type and I find it hard to go for medical checks to see what's really wrong. Also, I think going for that would give the Doctors opportunity to give me their well signature-like-written name of disease which I know it's not it. How do I know it's not it? Yeah, I have met people with this issue, where their symptoms are more chronic to mine. Doctors have prescribed all manners but it never seized. Also, these people avoid cold places but it's still the same... So maybe the catarrh is inbuilt. Lol.

This is how my own works

Mine comes in period I don't expect it, most times once in a month but the last time I suffered it, before now(today), was late January. That's two months from today.

Anytime it comes I usually go for common capsules that chases it away instantly (if it's not the stubborn one though).

Yeah, these cheap capsules have the capacity to fight it and suppress it within hours but they have side effect too, which is drowsiness.

I've tried different of these capsules, checking to see the one that doesn't work with drowsiness but no way, all of them works with that pattern. Even the most recommended falls in this category and I wondered why they decided to make catarrh capsule with 98% substance that causes drowsiness. Like, why can't they find another substance for it? Lol🤣. I know it's not easy with Experimenting and Findings but they should please try.🙅

I seldom fall sick and that make me not to take drugs often, so the only thing that makes to visit the pharmacy has been this on this catarrh drugs, to the extent that the girls in work in the pharmacy close to my workplace has known it that, that's the only medicine I buy from them. Sometimes once I appear they would hand over the favorite medicine directly to me without me asking for it.

Anytime I take the drugs, the whole day will be termed as dizzy day. I would be struggling to engage in activity, once I sit at a place for 10mins, I'll doze off.

But the good thing is that, the drugs work very well because the symptom will disappear at that moment and if it's not a stubborn one, that would be the end of it's existence for that month. But If the symptom is a chronic one, it goes off that moment and welcome itself back the following day.

That's how I've been controlling this symptoms and it's not easy at all. Like today, I was fighting with drowsiness while at work. I took the tablet today in the morning and the whole day became a battle. But thank God it as subsided at the time of writing this.

My coconut head at work🤗🤗

I'm naturally stubborn when it comes to some certain things. I've been told several times not to take cold or iced water but my coconut head is too stubborn to adhere to that.

Who doesn't love cold water? I love cold water to the core and it's became my part of living since I started this work, because we have 24/7 electricity with deep-freezers that block water. I so much love it and I don't know if I would be able to leave it if at all it's a mandatory act.

I love cool environment too because my body detect heat a lot. This is the main reason I always quarel with my co-workers because they like turning off the AC once they're feeling cold. I've been told to adapt to a warm/heat environment but that's not gonna work 🙅

I've been told also not to bathe cold water especially at morning and at nightbut, but hell no! I only bathe warm water whenever I'm feeling code and I can't stop bathing to the detriment of the issue.

Do you know why I declined these Steps? Well, it's very correct(medically) that these conditions brings the symptoms of catarrh but I've seen people that undertook these Steps but nothing worked. My boss is a good example of this, he makes sure he sleeps inside a warm room and yet, his own symptoms are still heavier than mine

Closing thoughts

I once talked to people about this issue and we concluded that it has no direct cure. The medicines we are taking are just there to take it off for a while and it returns back when the body has returned to it's normal stage.

It's just like malaria that comes once in a while, it comes and goes when it has stayed for the stipulated time. You know, there are people out there too, that are prone to malarias Everytime.

My body likes cold water and cool environment, unlike the other victims that naturally don't know these because. But i do take all these and I'm stronger than some people.

At the time of writing, the medicine is really working and with us dizzy power. The symptom of the catarrh has reduced but I'm struggling to write this from th dream... sorry for the poor arrangement of lines🙌

Thanks for reading
