2. Increase Sinus Irritation
Your fan’s air can dry out your mouth, throat, and nose, irritate your sinuses, and cause your body to generate too much mucus, which can cause congestion and headaches.
In addition, sleeping with a fan might cause sore throats. If you’re allergic, the continual breeze could be uncomfortable for you. The continuous airflow from the fan may exacerbate your symptoms if you are already ill, making you feel worse than before.
Use a humidifier or put a glass of water next to your bed if you plan to use a fan. By doing this, you can lessen the drying effect of the fan and avoid any potential pain.
3. Result in Stiff or Sore Muscles:
It’s not uncommon to wake up with sore muscles or a stiff neck, and, strangely enough, using a fan to circulate air while you sleep might actually make your muscles tense. Muscle strain can result from a fan’s nighttime continuous air circulation, particularly in areas that are immediately exposed to the airflow.
If the fan is placed near your face or neck, this issue is more serious. Long-term exposure to a cool breeze can cause the muscles to stiffen up from the steady blast of air, making it difficult to move and causing you to wake up hurting or with a stiff neck.
You can solve this problem by repositioning the fan so that air doesn’t blow straight into your face while you sleep. You might try angling the fan so that air flows around the space without coming into close contact with your body.
