I'm using cepodem xp 325, Sinarest, and a nasal spray. I was just wondering, how long after using the nasal spray can I do steam inhalation? I read somewhere that the nasal spray works for around 12 hours, so is it okay to do steam maybe 5 or 6 hours after the spray?

It is generally recommended to wait at least 1-2 hours after using a nasal spray before doing steam inhalation. This allows the nasal spray to be absorbed properly and have its intended effect. So, you can safely do steam inhalation 5-6 hours after using Sinarest nasal spray. Remember to follow the recommended dosage of Sinarest and consult your healthcare provider if you have any concerns.

I had surgery yesterday and I've noticed that my uvula has gotten really elongated, almost laying on my tongue. Is this something I should be worried about? Is it normal after surgery or should I get it checked out?

Question

I'm really worried because I can see my epiglottis and it seems like it's always visible. Ive been dealing with allergic bronchitis and lately I feel like there's something stuck in my throat, although it doesn't actually hurt. However, I've developed a throat infection over the last week. Is it normal for my epiglottis to be visible all the time? I'm pretty scared about this. What should I do?

Question

I've been inhaling quite a bit of steam lately because of all the COVID stuff going on, and now I'm freaking out a bit. I'm feeling this weird burning sensation running from my throat to my chest. It's been a few days, and now my mouth and tongue are all red and irritated. I'm taking B Complex tablets like Folvite and Sucrafil Suspension for it. I'm worried that maybe I burned my airways with all that steam. What should I do if that's the case, and is there a specific treatment for something like this?
