Can sitting in a a sauna/steam room help relieve chest congestion?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends on cause: It depends what is causing chest congestion. If bacterial bronchitis or pneumonia, antibiotics will first line treatment. Sauna/steam room will probably not help.If asthma induced bronchi spasm, heat may exacerbate chest congestion.
