Does sinus clearup by taking steam or it just liquidates and comes back when steam stops?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
One or other: Answer depends on what is causing your symptoms. Can open & stay, or open & close, depending on if allergic, infectious or other source, and the layout of sinuses (small openings, polyps, etc.). Vicks or similar aromatic addition to steam can help keep you open.
