  • To be fair, I made this error before. I was like why do they have those dumbass neti pots when you can just use shower water for free? Then that night I read about brain eating amebas and freaked tf out. In a panic I tried to boil some water to rinse my sinuses with, and since I was so panicked, I didn’t wait long enough to let the water cool completely, and I’m pretty sure I burnt my sinuses and maybe even the part of my brain that’s right there. I had a splitting headache for like a month and thought I was gonna die n had the brain eating ameba. I think in hindsight what’s more likely is my sinuses and everything were burnt and my body was freaking out trying to fix it. 0/10 do not recommend.

    Use a neti pot and use boiled or distilled water. Don’t be a dummy like me.
