Yes you heard it right. Apart from room temperature there is
something called nose temperature.
Here it is. Your nose gets warm by preventing the cold air
entering inside that also avoids your nose to be cold. This in turn keeps
infection at bay. As a new Research says that infection is prone to attack only
if your nose is cold.
What happens is the immunity weakens in cooler temperature
or cold nose which is why the virus gets an opportunity to make its home and
replicate increasing the infection
This also means that lowers the temperature, lower the
resistance to fight against infection.
Why the Rhinovirus attacks the Nose? The reason could be
that the cells in the mucous of the nose are relatively cooler than other parts
of the body.
