Review (5/5): Oxygen and Calendula
Not many people realize this, but many years ago my late husband while on hospital oxygen had quite a bit of irritation in his nose and outside of his nose from prolonged oxygen use. I know now that this is a very common issue. The CAN or nurse whoever it was I can’t remember now and it is not important applied antibiotic cream liberally both inside and outside of his nose and replaced the oxygen. Very soon he had what looked like horribly painful burns on the outside of his nose all the way up inside where the cream had been applied. The cream contained petroleum and I’m sure that I need go no further. When I looked for something to use that did not contain petroleum at that time it was hopeless until years later when I was told about the Calendula gel. I use oxygen at night now and have used Boericke & Tafel for this and many other things. I have given it to my family and friends as well so they could try it and they like it as well. I am not a medical professional, I am only sharing my experiences.
