1. Doubling up your medicine dosage

Some people always think that they can double up their medication in order to recover faster. Well, this is one of the gravest mistakes you can make in life. Remember doctors understand your body more than anyone else. Stick to the advice of the doctor if you want to recover from the ailment without any form of complication at the end of the day.

 2. Touch everything you come across

Remember to watch the things you touch when you are sick. The things around us are full of germs. You are likely to spread more germs around if you go around touching everything you come across. In addition, ensure that you have cleaned your hands before you touch anything in the house

3. Touching your face with dirty hands

Are you sneezing? It is not a wise idea to touch your face. Touching the face can lead to the spread of germs across your body. There are millions of germs all over. Touching your face repeatedly increases the chances of spreading the infection to other areas. 

4. Doing tedious jobs

Your body needs rest when you are sick. Do not assume you are a machine. Going to work when sick is not recommended. Remember you need to rest to get back the energy needed to be stronger.
