I have the flu when i deeply inhaile through my mouth i get a pain in my throat but it does not happen when i inhaile through my nose?

Warm moist air,: Your nose works to warm and humidify the air which does not cause discomfort. The mouth is inefficient at doing this and the air may irritate your already inflamed throat.
