"Cleaning your nose is vital for keeping it healthy, but it's also often a source of embarrassment.

There are two main types of nasal cleaning: dry and wet. Dry nasal cleansing involves using a cotton swab or gauze pad to clean out the nasal cavity and sinuses, while wet nasal cleansing involves using a saline solution that is poured into the nostrils to flush out debris.

Both methods are effective in getting rid of unwanted debris and can help prevent infection. However, if you have a lot of mucus in your nose or sinuses, try using a saline solution first before trying dry nasal cleaning techniques. If this doesn't work, try different techniques until you find one that works best for you!

If you find that dry nasal cleansing doesn't work very well for you, try wet cleansing instead—it may take some time before your body gets used to this new way of cleaning but it will eventually become second nature!

If you need proper medical advice, message Dr. Formanez via Facebook to book your doctor's appointment."

"A voice box (larynx) infection, irritation, or overuse can cause laryngitis, an inflammation of the voice box.
Your vocal cords, which are two folds of mucous membrane covering muscle and cartilage, are located inside the larynx. Your voice chords typically open and close smoothly, moving and vibrating to create sounds.

However, when you have laryngitis, your voice chords swell up or itch. Due to the vocal cords swelling as a result, the sounds created by air passing over them are distorted. Your voice sounds hoarse as a result. Your voice may become essentially undetectable if you have laryngitis in some situations.

Certain conditions also cause some patients to become more prone to developing laryngitis.

If you are ready to consult a doctor about this issue, message Dr. Formanez via Facebook to book your doctor's appointment."

Maghagok ba ka matulog?

Snoring is a common sleep disorder that can be treated with various techniques. However, there are some simple sleeping positions that can help prevent snoring.

1. Sleep on your side

This is the best position to prevent snoring because it allows air to move from the lungs during sleep. It also prevents the tongue from blocking the airway. A good side-sleep position is one where the elbows are bent at about 90 degrees and the knees are bent.

2. Avoid sleeping on your stomach

Sleeping on your stomach may cause excessive gas in the lungs and also cause snoring.

It is also recommended that you understand what is causing your snoring to make sure that it is not caused by an underlying medical condition.

If you are ready to consult a doctor about this issue, message Dr. Formanez via Facebook to book your doctor's appointment.

Gargling with saltwater works best for sore or scratchy throats brought on by bacteria or viruses.

Warm water with half a teaspoon of salt added makes one cup. Several times a day, gargle with this solution.

The salt may help lessen mucus buildup, and the heat may soothe throat inflammation.

If you choose to use a commercially available oral solution, please use alcohol-free gargles.

Cotton buds can cause more problems when used to "clean" your ears.

Why?

1. These can push earwax inward, causing impaction, leading to pain and reduced hearing.
2. These remove earwax which is the natural lubricant and protection of the ear, and
3. These may injure the skin of the ear canal causing irritation and even infection. Our ears clean themselves, if you leave them alone, earwax just naturally false off, the safest thing to do is just to rub gently the entrance of the ear canal with a moist face towel if you feel any discomfort.

Sore throats are divided into types, based on the part affected:

Pharyngitis is when the area at the back of your nasal cavity down to the entrance to the esophagus is red or swollen causing pain upon swallowing or drinking.

Tonsillitis is swelling and redness of the tonsils, the oval shaped tissue just to the back and side of the tongue

Laryngitis is swelling and redness of the voice box, or larynx.

Fun Fact: Filipinos usually say: "Gi-Tonsil ko" or "Na-Tonsil ako" when they have throat pain.

More often than not, it's not the tonsils which are red or swollen.
