You can easily overcome a cold with nasal irrigation.

The common cold is a disease that no one can avoid.

Especially, children catch colds more frequently.

Every time I took medication, I felt my immunity was getting weaker.

However, if you rinse your nose, you can more easily overcome a cold even with reduced medication.

 

 

 

 

Taking the medication right away is actually the easiest and most comfortable way for the body.

Have you ever heard the saying that a cold lasts a week whether you take medicine or not?

The cold medicine we take is only a drug that alleviates symptoms such as fever and runny nose that appear when you catch a cold.

Because there is no medication that directly cures the cold virus itself.

In other words, a cold is just symptomatic treatment.

The reason I still take medicine is to help my body feel comfortable while suffering from a cold.

This is to prevent complications that can occur due to severe symptoms such as runny nose and fever.

 

 

🤧 Especially my son, when he has a runny nose, it quickly turns yellow and develops sinusitis.

Since I was young, I used to give medicine early whenever I caught a cold.

The hospital staff are well aware of such routines, so when they see a yellow nose, they prescribe antibiotics from the beginning.

Then, I have been taking antibiotics for more than two weeks.

Whenever the cold wind blows, she immediately gets a runny nose, so I think she was on antibiotics throughout the fall and winter.

 

 

While antibiotics are indeed good medicines for overcoming illness,

Still, after taking it continuously for a long time, I think my immunity has become weaker.

So, you become more susceptible to colds, and taking antibiotics lowers your immunity...

Even if you take well-being products like red ginseng, propolis, probiotics, and vitamins,

It seemed like the vicious cycle was continuing.

 

 

Then, I developed sinusitis and was advised by the hospital to perform nasal irrigation, so I started doing it.

Nasal irrigation helps wash away various foreign substances and viruses in the nasal cavity.

Restores normal nasal function and aids in quick recovery.

Those who haven't had sinusitis don't know... Your nose gets blocked, and you can't even taste food ㅠ

However, after doing a nasal rinse, my nose was completely clear, and I could breathe easily as well as taste food better.

Unfortunately, at that time, I was unable to take antibiotics due to treatment for another illness.

Consistent nasal irrigation has completely cured my sinusitis without medication.

 

 

 

 

The container visible in the photo is one I purchased at the hospital.

The small pouch visible next to it contains powder used to make saline solution from a nose sweeper.

You can purchase saline solution at the pharmacy, but once opened, bacteria begin to proliferate.

There is an inconvenience that needs to be used within a short period of time.

👍 The powdered form like that is convenient because you can use one packet at a time whenever needed.

Can produce 250 milliliters per dose.

Suitable for single use of nasal irrigation

 

 

 

 

It is best to boil tap water, let it cool, and then use it.

Of course, bottled water is also available.

Pour 250 milliliters of warm water into the container.

Add one packet of powder and shake it, then it will dissolve quickly and the saline solution will be ready.

If you gently press with your hand, water will gush out like that.

If you slightly tilt your head forward and press on one nostril, it will come out of the opposite nostril.

⚠️ Be careful not to swallow the acupuncture needle at that time, as saline solution may flow into the ear.

When doing it for the first time or with children, you can simply make a gentle "Ah" sound.

⚠️ If your nose is completely blocked again, you should clear it to some extent before proceeding. Otherwise, saline solution may flow into your ear as well.

 

 

 

 

When I first did nasal irrigation, my child was 5 years old.

Although still young, I think nasal irrigation will be very helpful, so I have been gradually practicing nasal irrigation.

They really did a great job more than I expected.

Since then, whenever I caught a cold, I always did nasal irrigation. And I was really surprised.

😭 Inside that tiny nose, there was a yellow nose hidden, about the size of an adult finger.

The thrill of that big nose suddenly popping out is indescribable haha

Even I feel so relieved just watching this.

How refreshed will the child feel! How much easier it becomes to breathe.

You have to try it to understand that thrill, haha.

 

 

As I started nasal irrigation like that, the days the child took antibiotics noticeably decreased.

Now, at 9 years old, I hardly ever take even mild cold medicines like nasal decongestants.

🤗 Even if I catch a cold, I don't necessarily go to the hospital.

If you rinse your nose twice a day in the morning and evening, it gets better after about a week.

However, when the fever exceeds 38 degrees Celsius, antipyretic medication is administered.

Fever can't be resolved with nasal irrigation, haha.

Still, thanks to nasal irrigation, I rarely get a fever.

 

 

Anyone can catch a cold.

Especially during infancy, it is enough to struggle with colds until they pass.

Children tend to live with colds.

Just doing nasal irrigation could reduce the number of hospital visits by half.

When the child is young, nasal irrigation alongside medication as an auxiliary treatment can be very helpful.

You will see great results with just nasal irrigation.

👍 Highly recommended for those suffering from rhinitis as well.

With large temperature fluctuations and frequent rain, many people are suffering from colds during these cool days.

I wish everyone a quick recovery without any major difficulties!
