Take care of your nose to breathe better
Article in collaboration with Vie de Parents and Salinex.®.
The nose is the first gateway to the air you breathe. A clear nose ensures optimal health. To clean your nose or solve certain associated problems, nasal solutions are your best bet.
Nasal hygiene
The nasal passages filter the air that enters your lungs, allowing you to breathe freely and efficiently. The most common time people use nasal sprays is when they have cold symptoms or suffer from allergies.
However, you can use specific saline solutions on a daily basis. This is the case with Salinex® Nasal Spray, which, when used daily, allows you to breathe easily by facilitating the drainage of your sinuses and moisturizing the nasal mucosa. For those looking to soothe a dry nose, Salinex® Nasal Lubricant Spray will help reduce the symptoms of dryness caused by a dry environment and/or overheated air, which can lead to irritation or stinging.
Another great solution during the cold season is Salinex® ProTect. It can be used daily and creates a protective layer in the nasal cavity, helping to reduce the duration of cold symptoms and the viral load of nasal secretions1.
Medical conditions
If you have a cold, a nasal spray can relieve and reduce specific symptoms, such as congestion, nasal secretions, and pressure exerted on your sinuses. It changes the consistency of the mucus by making it more liquid, which clears the respiratory tracts and prevents other infections, including the accumulation of secretions in the lungs or ears (otitis)2.
A nasal spray works in the same way for allergy symptoms (allergic rhinitis). It relieves congestion by eliminating the secretions that contain allergenic particles.
Frequency of use
For nasal cleansing, a nasal spray, such as Salinex®, can be used twice a day: in the morning and evening. If you have cold symptoms or allergies, you can increase the frequency of use to 4 to 6 times a day.
