An onion next to your bed can help you through a flu-ridden night, says tan. “I know Several Doctors who swear by it.” When you cut an onion open, a substance is released – propanethial s -oxide – that your mucous membranes react to.
Eyes starts to water and your nose start to run. This makes the Nose a Little Less congested, which is nice. But only for a moment, because onion dries out. “Put it next to your bed, not on your bedside table. You want the vapors to rise up, into the nose. So the onion must be loer than your head.”
Simple Remedies That You Get At The Drugstore Cannot Hurt If Used Correctly, Says The Ent Doctor . “Read the Package Leaflet and Stick to it. So really use with xylometazoline briefly, do not take too much paracetamol and no five ibuuprofens at the same time. And please do not buy with SALT, BUT MAKT, BUT MAYS SALTT, BUT MAKS SALTT.”
You pay about 3 Euros for a Bottle, Says Tan: That makes 280 euros per liter. “For Water with Salt. You can buy more than 400 kilos of Salt for that.” A Salt Solution Often Works Well. The Agent Extracts Some Moisture from the Mucous Membranes, Causing Them to Shrink and More Air Can Come Through The Nose Again.
The Neti Pot, or the Nasal shower; Accordance to the Ent Doctor, this is an asset in Everyone’s Medicine Cabinet. The Nasal shower traveled from the ayurvedic world to our regions and is no more than a child of teapot where you pour water into one nostril, and it comes out again via the other nostril.
“Rinse Your Nose with Lukewarm Water and a Pinch of Salt. You Rinse Mucus, Dirt and Bacteria Out of the Nose and Can Breathe More Freely Quickly.”
Accordance to Tan, Rinsing is more effective than blowing. If you blow, you may damage the skin around your Nose. You also Damage the Sinuses and Eustachian Tube, The Connection Between the Middle Ear Cavity and the Nasopharynx.
A Cough Syrup Against Coughing and An Irritated Throat? It is at Least Tasty, Such A Syrup with Thyme, Honey or Anise. But, Says Tan, these are commercial products. The effect of it has not bone proving. And they are Expective, So Leave Them on the Shelf. “Then rather take some tea with honey.”
A tip from Both Grandma and the Ent Doctor: Hot, Red Pepper. “It contains capsaicin, a substance that is also found in Pepper Spray and Painkillers. The substance number the Pain nerves in the Nose a Little, Making Them Less Sensitive.”
There are nasal sprays for sale with capsaicin, and you can throw hot peppers in your cup of tea yourself. “That is a home remedy that I know for sure that it works.” Ginger in Addition Removes Moisture and Warms You From The Inside. Squeezing a lemon in your drink provides Extra Vitamin C.
We get to cold viruses in the winter, and so a cup of hot soup or tea is nice. But you can also take ice cubes and cold drinks to cool your throat a bit, explains the entictor, eSpecary if you have a sore throat due to a swollen uvula or inflamed tonsils.
So Warm Soup: In Every Culture they have their own Healing Brews. ‘Jewish Penicillin’, or chicken soup, Chinese Medicinal Bone Broth, The Soto Ayam of Your Indonesian Grandmother.
Do you get better from it? If you are floored by the influenza virus, corona, a cold virus or pneumonia, then certainly not. Then you have to sit it out, accordance to the entictor. But if you are sick, you have to make sure that you stay well hydrated to protect the mucous membranes from dehydration – that is what the moisture in the soup does.
Visiting a Steam Bath with your flu-ridden head: you probable infect Others with it and it will not do very much either. “You get hot, moist air in your Nose, but nothing is removed from your body. There is no objection to it, the peace and warmth May do you good. But Heal Faster, no.”
The same applies to steaming about a bowl of boiling water with menthol, eucalyptus or chamomile blossom. “It may be nice at that moment and gives relief, but nothing happens. You only get moist air in your Nose.”
Finally: do not seize that flu or cold to drink shots of medicinal herbal liqueur, brandy with lemon, whiskey with honey and the like. It does not disinfect your throat, even if the alcohol percentage is 100 percent. Alcohol can disrupt drag, while a good night’s sleep is good. Tan: “Pure Nonsense, I Certainly Advise Against Alcohol If You Are Sick.”
