Got COVID-19? Flushing out nasal passages could cut severity
An 8.5-fold reduction in hospitalisations and no fatalities compared to controls, study
Battling COVID-19 and eager to do anything that will limit you to a mild infection?
Grab a neti pot, a new study advises.
Flushing your sinus cavity twice daily with a mild saline solution can significantly reduce a COVID-19 patient’s risk of hospitalisation and death, researchers report.
“We found an 8.5-fold reduction in hospitalisations and no fatalities compared to our controls,” said senior author Dr Richard Schwartz, chairman of the department of emergency medicine at the Medical College of Georgia at Augusta University.
