Another hidden issue is hygiene. Fan blades often collect dust and microscopic allergens. When the fan spins, it can blow those particles directly into your breathing zone. Inhaling this contaminated air for hours can irritate the throat and lungs, especially for people with sensitive airways or respiratory conditions.
If your fan hasn’t been cleaned regularly, it may also circulate bacteria or mold spores—both of which can cause coughing, congestion, or throat discomfort the next morning.
4. Tips to Protect Your Throat While Using a Fan
If you can’t sleep without a fan, there’s no need to suffer. With a few simple adjustments, you can reduce the risk of irritation:
- Avoid direct airflow: Position the fan so it oscillates or blows slightly away from your face and body.
- Keep some distance: Place the fan at least 1.5 to 2 meters (5–6 feet) from your bed.
- Use a timer: Let the fan run for only a few hours instead of all night. Most modern fans have an automatic shut-off function.
- Maintain humidity: Add a small humidifier or a bowl of water near your bed to keep moisture levels stable.
- Clean regularly: Wipe the blades and grill weekly to prevent dust buildup.
- Stay hydrated: Drink a glass of warm water when you wake up to soothe your throat.
