Rinse the nasal cavity with saline solution

When it comes to normal saline, most people are very familiar with it. Normal saline is widely used in our daily life. The osmotic value of normal saline and normal human plasma tissue is very small, so it is often used in medical treatment. In fact, in addition to being used for fluid replenishment, normal saline can also be used to clean the nasal cavity. Moreover, if the normal saline is used to clean the nasal cavity properly, there are generally no side effects.

The correct way to rinse your nose with salt water

First of all, washing your nose with saline is non-toxic and does not harm your body. Saline nasal wash solution can be used to dilute thick mucus and moisten the nose, and it also has a certain bactericidal function. It is a safe nasal wash solution that does not contain any drugs. As long as it is performed properly, there will be no side effects. More importantly, saline nasal wash will not make you addicted.

Secondly, using an electric spray nasal washer can go deep into the nasal cavity and the effect is thorough. If you use a professional low-pressure water vapor nasal irrigator like Jie Bikang, the cleaning can be done in two steps. First, clean the nasal vestibule, and then go deep into the sinuses and nasal cavity (it is difficult for ordinary nasal irrigators to reach this point due to pressure problems). The pathogenic bacteria and dirt accumulated inside will be completely removed. The pathogenic bacteria on which the inflammation depends for survival will no longer exist, and the inflammation will naturally disappear.

Third, the advanced and precise electric nasal washer can effectively restore the self-protection function of the nasal cavity. The Jiebikang electric nasal washer adopts the pulse jet principle and can also produce 1200 times/minute, which is close to the physical movement frequency of nasal cilia swinging, promoting the recovery of nasal cilia swinging, and cooperating with the restoration of nasal mucus secretion after the bacteria have been cleared, so that the nose can detoxify itself again and restore the self-protection of the nasal cavity.

Fourth, regular maintenance can effectively avoid recurrence. Through regular maintenance, the nasal cavity's own detoxification system can be assisted to eliminate pathogens, ensuring that pathogens that enter the nasal cavity no longer accumulate and attack in the nasal cavity, keeping the nasal cavity in a clean, moist and normal physiological state. At the same time, it also maintains the normal swing of nasal cilia, keeping the swing of nasal cilia in a normal state. In this way, the self-detoxification of the nasal cavity will continue normally, and rhinitis will not have the chance to occur.

Fifth, nasal washing equipment requires little investment, can be used by multiple people, and is economical. Nasal irrigation is not a treatment for rhinitis through medication or surgery. It can be done at home. The most expensive investment is to buy a high-performance electric nasal irrigation device, which can be used by multiple people at the same time. Unlike traditional treatment methods, you don’t have to spend extra money for each additional person. It is very cost-effective.

The specific operation of nasal washing is very important, because the nasal mucosa is a sensitive tissue. If the nasal mucosa is damaged, it will not only fail to have a therapeutic effect, but will aggravate the symptoms.

Nasal irrigation with saline is mainly to use a certain pressure to send saline solution into the nostrils, where it flows through the nasal vestibule (the part exposed outside the head), sinuses, nasal passages, around the nasopharynx, or is discharged from one nostril or from the mouth. Through the above pathways, with the help of the bactericidal effect of saline solution itself and the impact force of water flow, the pathogens and pollutants that have accumulated in the nasal cavity are discharged, thereby restoring the nasal cavity to its normal physiological environment, restoring the nasal cavity's self-detoxification function, and achieving the purpose of protecting the nasal cavity. However, most of the water column pulsating nasal irrigators on the market cannot clean the sinus openings and nasopharynx, so when purchasing a nasal irrigator, it is recommended to use a professional two-step air-water electric nasal irrigator.

The following are the methods for nasal washing:

①Inject the prepared warm saline solution into the special nasal washer;

② The patient sits or stands by the sink, turns on the switch of the nasal rinser, holds the nasal rinser in one hand, gently places the rinsing head of the nasal rinser against the nostrils, and tilts the head slightly and forward;

③ Ask the patient to open his mouth and breathe naturally. Do not hold the breath or swallow during nasal washing to avoid ear discomfort.

④ Rinse both sides alternately, first rinse the side with more severe nasal congestion, then rinse the opposite side. Otherwise, the flushing saline may be blocked on the side with the more severe blockage and flow into the Eustachian tube. You don't need to pay attention to this for nasal washers with automatic pressure relief function. In addition, more advanced nasal washers will require you to wash at a low level first and then at a high level.

⑤ After washing, tilt your head forward to allow the residual saline in the nasal cavity to drain out, then gently blow your nose on each side. Avoid blowing your nose too hard or too quickly, or pinching both nostrils tightly at the same time to blow your nose hard, which may cause a middle ear infection.
