I know! We spent January in Florida, where the humid winter air was helpful in so many ways. My hair doubled in volume, I lost (temporarily) 5 years off my face, and my sinuses felt better. I bet all the 80-year-olds we saw are actually 90 or 100 due to this youth effect Too bad I cannot tolerate the long hot summers, or we would be living near the beach in FL.
I'm not sure if this will help, but where is your location, and what kind of heating system do you have?
For a lot of us, winter has been pretty cold, with temps in the teens and single digits. Winter air is very dry, it's why mining disasters always occurred in winter months. Swampy, muddy areas underground became deserts, and forced air heat makes the air that much drier, drying the sinuses and throat. That in turn makes one more susceptible to viruses, dust and the like. Add some moisture to your air, but not too much, because that will trigger molds.
