Is this really necessary?

On the five or so occasions when I have trouble with congestion before bedtime, I place a tiny trace of Vicks® VapoRub™ on the tips of my moustache. (OK, it's not for everyone. ) So, instead, try a tiny amount under your chin.

Congestion clears up in a couple of minutes. Older containers are said to be much more effective than the newest formula. As above—used sparingly—my three containers, secured at three dwellings—are the old formula.

Vicks® VapoRub™ has many uses, including on one's feet.

I'm telling you, it works great, especially for allergies. I also do it when I have a cold, it flushes everything out. There are certain rules you need to follow, like using sterile water (either boiled AND cooled or distilled out of a bottle). And it needs to be a saline solution, you can buy premixed packets or mix your own, just find reputable instructions and follow them.
