JawaPos.com – The nose is part of the human body’s respiratory system as the sense of smell. Through the nose, air enters and then filters dirt and warms and humidifies the air.
Every day, the nose can inhale around 10 thousand to 15 thousand liters of air. Of all the air that is inhaled, it is possible that it contains pollutants, dust, viruses, as well as bacteria. This condition causes the nose to become inflamed and dry more easily. As a result, air filtration is not optimal, triggering dirt, dust, and bacteria to accumulate in the nose.
In addition, the extreme weather changes that occur in Indonesia allow various diseases to occur, such as fever accompanied by coughs and colds. According to the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Indonesia, people with colds will usually have discharge from the nose which is accompanied by a feeling of heaviness and results in a stuffy nose.
Not only through medical treatment, natural methods can be used to overcome nasal congestion problems. One of them is by washing the nose using a NaCl solution or solution saline.
Besides being effective, this method is also considered very safe so that anyone can do it, from children to the elderly. Make sure to know the right steps to do it in order to get optimal benefits.
Dr. Fadhli Rizal Makarim quoted from Halodoc shared tips on how to wash your nose using a NaCl solution:

1. Wash Hands
Before washing your nose, make sure to wash your hands with soap and running water so that your hands are clean.
2. Prepare NaCl
Besides NaCl, don’t forget to prepare a syringe (simple piston pump) and a sterile container to use in the nose washing process.
3. Put NaCl into the syringe
Enter the liquid into the syringe slowly and make sure the amount of liquid is as needed.
4. Position the Body in a Comfortable Condition
Generally when washing the nose, a comfortable position is standing near the sink or in the bathroom. Then, position the head slightly tilted. If you start washing from the left nostril, then tilt your head to the right, and vice versa. Next, open your mouth slightly and hold your breath.
5. Wash Nose
Insert the tip of the syringe into the nose to be cleaned. Spray the tip of the syringe so that the water flows into the nose with force. Then, let the liquid out through the other nostrils. Repeat for the other part of the nose until the condition of the nose feels better.
6. Clean the Nose
After both nostrils are cleared, exhale forcefully through the nose. This is intended to clean the remaining dirt and mucus that appears on the nose. Then, don’t forget to clean the remaining dirt and mucus that comes out of the nose using a dry tissue. Throw away the tissue container and wash your hands again using soap and running water.
