Post Nasal Drip Remedies
Steam Inhalation
When you inhale steam, it could help lessen mucus thereby easing post nasal drip. The throat and nose will also be moistened by the steam and this way, mucus can pass through. Steam inhalation can be done in a bath or a shower. Steam inhalation therapy [1] is another similarly effective option. To do this:
- In a large stainless-steel bowl, pour some hot water.
- Use a tower to cover your head.
- Then, place your face above the hot water, about 8 to 12 inches away. Avoid direct contact with the water.
- Very slowly, inhale the steam deeply. Do this for about 3 to 5 minutes. Repeat two times daily
