Coughing can be triggered by a variety of substances like allergens (dust, animal fur, cockroaches, mold, and pollens) and irritants (like chemicals in the air, cigarette smoke, air pollution, and beauty products). Other common asthma triggers include: Medications: these may include aspirin, other nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and nonselective beta-blockers (often used for heart disease) Chemicals used to preserve foods: usually the sulfites found in a number of foods and drinks Upper respiratory infections: such as colds and other viral infections of the lungs Exercise and other physical activities Cold or dry air Other health conditions: such as heartburn (acid reflux), stress and sleep apnea After you have a coughing fit, ask yourself what triggered it. If you're having trouble identifying common triggers, you may have to consider if there's an unknown trigger that you need to find. Keep a journal of your daily routine so you can determine what you experienced right before the coughing attack. Ask yourself: Has the season changed? Are there new environmental factors triggering my asthma? Is there a new industry nearby that may be spilling pollutants into the air? Have I added a new food into my diet? Am I taking any new medications that might be interfering with my asthma medication? Has the weather changed suddenly? Was it warm and it is now cool and damp? Is it windy or has the wind changed direction? The wind may be bringing in new irritants. If you suspect that a food allergy is triggering your asthma cough, don't simply cut the food from your diet. This could lead to a nutritional deficiency. Instead, talk to your doctor about getting skin prick testing to determine what you're allergic to. Your doctor can then recommend strategies for managing the allergy. Common food allergies include: Gluten (a protein found in any wheat product) Casein (a protein found in dairy products) Eggs Citrus Fish and shellfish Peanuts If you're having trouble identifying your asthma triggers, talk with your doctor about monitoring your peak expiratory flow rate (PEF) using a small portable tool. This will show how effective your lungs are at pushing air out. As your airways narrow your PEF will drop. Regularly checking your peak function and tracking your daily activities/foods can help you and your doctor determine your asthma triggers. Measuring your lung function is especially helpful if your triggers don't cause an immediate coughing fit. Some people find that their triggers take some time before an attack comes on.

. Most skin is oily, dry, combination, or normal. If your skin type is extremely oily or dry, reference general guidelines on how to care for oily skin and dry skin. If your skin already becomes red, irritated, or acne-riddled when exposed to the sun, other skin products, or perfume, then you have sensitive skin. These might include wrinkling, acne, dull skin, or dark spots. A full skincare regimen involves exfoliator, cleanser, toner, moisturizer, and spot treatments, but you do not have to use all five. Most skin products either clean or moisturize your skin.

One of the more common signs of martyr syndrome at work is when the person you suspect has the syndrome arrives before everyone else in the office, and stays until after everyone leaves. Try to get to work early and stay late to see if the person does in fact arrive before everyone else, and stays until after everyone else has gone home. Having no life, or very little life, outside of work can also be a sign of martyr syndrome--the person may arrive early or stay late because they have an imbalanced life that revolves entirely around work. A person with martyr syndrome at work will not hesitate to bring work home with them. They will affirm that they aren't really bound by office hours and are more than happy to bring the work home. You can keep track of this by noting the time that they send out hours--if they send and respond to emails at hours when they should be doing anything but work, take note. If they send or respond to emails at odd hours every once in a while, this does not necessarily mean they are an office martyr. However, if this is a daily occurrence, they may have martyr syndrome. The person expects coworkers to know how hard they work based on the amount of hours they stay at the office, rather than by how efficient or productive they are. The person may view themselves as the only person in the organization that can properly get the job done; therefore, they have a hard time delegating parts of the job to others that they think will produce sub-par work. This causes the office martyr to take double the time to finish the task. People with martyr syndrome may also have harder times prioritizing their tasks because they are overly aware of how important their task is. People with martyr syndrome honestly believe that the companies they work for would crumble without them. Because of this, they have a hard time taking days off. When they do take the day off, they work from home to ensure that the company does not fall to ruin.

The easiest way to get rid of an annoying friend's posts in your News Feed is to go to their profile and "unfollow" them; this feature is similar to "muting" an account on Twitter. If you aren't logged in, you'll first need to enter your Facebook email and password. This is at the top of Facebook's page. If they have a recent post in your News Feed, you can also click on their name there; doing so will take you to their account page. This should be to the right of their name. On mobile, this will be below their name and profile picture. This will remove their posts from your News Feed; however, you will remain friends on Facebook! You may have to refresh your News Feed for their posts to disappear.
