Ever since the COVID-19 pandemic commenced, wearing masks, maintaining social distance and sanitizing hands have become mandatory. The central and state governments have suggested citizens to wear masks whenever they step out of the house, especially in a crowded place, even if they are fully vaccinated. Sanitizing hands and maintaining social distance is quite easy for everyone to follow but wearing a mask for long is not feasible for all. It can lead to discomfort, itchiness, breathing issues, and headaches.

There is no debate that masks have played a crucial role in reducing or breaking the chain of virus transmission during the pandemic. As people have resumed offices and are out for long hours, there is a significant rise in mask-related complaints. People have reported complain of headaches, discomfort, dehydration, and disorientation after wearing the mask for long. It is even more difficult for people, who suffer from cold, asthma, cough, or skin allergies, but people must comply with the safety guidelines. And when the pros of wearing a mask outweigh the cons, one should not consider removing it.
