hot shower?

Has anyone noticed a difference taking a long hot shower does for airway clearance. I seem to clear out and can function better after draining the hot water tank with my shower. Not to mention how great it feels. I have to haul my water to my house and I tell people I don't care how much I have to haul I need my hot shower!!

Hot showers work for me. I find that when I'm really congested, I'll run the shower with only hot water, close the bathroom door, and then sit in the bathroom for a while. The steam helps my breathing and coughing.

When I was sick in the fall, a steamy bathroom was were I would go to get some air in my lungs.
It was the only think that would help.

It works for me. When time allows I try to incorporate it into my nitetime treatment. After my first nebs, but before my vest. I see a big difference. HOWEVER: I will say that if I am really, really congested. Even tho it helps to loosen it, it makes it harder to breath until I can get it up & out of me!
