Question

I'm dealing with a really bad cold and sore throat, and I've just started feeling a bit of chest pain. I'm wondering if it's safe to inhale steam with Karvol Plus added, through my mouth. Do you think that could help, or should I be worried about any side effects?

It's not recommended to inhale Karvol Plus steam water directly through your mouth, as it may irritate your throat. Instead, inhale the steam through your nose, allowing it to gently soothe your congestion and sore throat. If you're experiencing chest pain, it's best to consult a doctor for a proper evaluation.
