Steam inhale
Doctor, can i inhale steam for long period ex: 6,7 months twice morning and evening 10 minutes. I am inhaling steam since October as ENT doctor prescribed for sore throat and blocked nose with few medicines. Still i face block nose issue in morning for some days that's why i am continuing steam inhale and also i feel inhaling steam good for looking current panadimic situation, although i completely recovered from covid happened during 2nd wave. Is there any harm for inhaling steam for long period says 6,7 months.
Although steam inhalation has many benefits but it should be done carefully lest may cause scald burn, also don’t allow the steam in your eyes, keep eyes closed while inhaling steam, and dont keep ua face very close to the steam source.
