“But there is an opinion that rinsing your nose is harmful.
– It is harmful to use hypertonic solutions for a long time – more concentrated solutions of sea water with 2.4 percent. They are used only for runny nose and nasal congestion. They have a slight vasoconstrictor effect, which, with prolonged use, dries out the nose. For everyday cleaning, you need to use lighter isotonic solutions.
— Is it possible to soften crusts with ointment?
— Ointment bases for the nose are not suitable. Only in short courses after surgery or a serious illness, and also if a boil has arisen. You can’t do this all the time. Although general practitioners recommend this, ENT specialists are against even oxolinic ointment.
– And why?
“If we constantly use the ointment, it will be difficult for the villi to move, and they will slowly begin to die off. And bald spots and bald spots will appear again. This has been studied, researched and proven. But only ENT doctors talk about this. And if many doctors say “smear”, then we, ENT specialists, say “no”. Even oil-based drops are harmful to use frequently – for the same reason.
