Question: I am a dog groomer so i work with the public 1 of my customers came in sick and right after that i got sick mayeb 2-3 days after. Ive been basically sick since december. It feels like im sick once a month. I do have a son he is 2 1/2 yearsold. i had pheumoina and asthma and broncitis when i was younger so when i get a cold it lasts long untill i get medication for it. but does that mean i have to be on medication every month?! I do NOT do drugs i dont drink either.
Brief Answer:
Improve your immunity and decrease exposure to infection
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Welcome and thanks for your query.
I understand your concern.
You are more susceptible for infections.
This may be due to decreased immunity.
So it would be good for you to eat wholesome food, exercise at least 30 minutes a day to optimise your natural immunity. Along with that wear a surgical mask you can get in the pharmacy whenever you come into contact with customers having respiratory infection.
If you have good immunity and decrease the direct contact with infection you will not be sick so often.
Best wishes,
