A member asked:
Does taking heavy steam damages olfactory nerves.?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Unlikely. Steam, hot enough to damage the olfactory nerves would not be tolerable in lower parts of the nose. Remember, moderation is a good practice. For healthy diet: http://www.choosemyplate.gov/., exercise 30 minutes/day, drink enough water daily so your urine is mostly colorless, have safe sex, no tobacco alcohol weed or street drugs. Get HPV and Covid vaccines. Wish you good health!
