The Russians were given advice on how to treat a runny nose and not harm the body.
Irina Lukina, head of the otolaryngology department of the Stupino hospital, warned that vasoconstrictor drugs can be used for a maximum of five to seven days. Otherwise, medications can cause rhinitis medication, the medic added.
The specialist noted that it is important to blow your nose correctly. Disposable wipes are suitable for this, she said. “You need to blow your nose gently, without effort and strain,” the website of the Ministry of Health quotes Lukina.
The medic also urged to limit travel on public transport, ventilate the apartment, rinse the nose with pharmaceutical or physiological drugs and not rely on traditional medicine. In the event that the runny nose does not go away in a week, you should consult a doctor, concluded Lukina.
Earlier, TV presenter and doctor Alexander Myasnikov criticized Russians who treat a cold with onions and eggs. “Someone shoves
garlic in the nose, someone onions, someone heats with chicken eggs. This entertainment does not work, ”he said.
