Neti pot-you fill it with saline for a sinus wash-it isn’t a bong...
You have a good point, since Nyquil and that other stuff aren’t remedies per se-they relieve symptoms of the cold or flu, but don’t do a thing to shorten or cure the malady. Based on that, the manufacturers of those “remedies” certainly wouldn’t want something on the market that would diminish the need for their products by the consumer.
Oh, I know, I was being droll.
If I ever tried to use one of those I would go on a sneezing jag lasting for days.
I also read where people used non-sterile water and essentially injected deadly parasites into their head.
I am roaring that resident doper soother thought neti pot was dope!!!
