“Avoid swimming in pools or bodies of water that may contain bacteria or other pathogens that can cause sinus infections.”
Swimming Precautions: Taking precautions while swimming can help prevent sinus infections. Some bodies of water, such as pools or contaminated natural water sources, may harbor bacteria, fungi, or other pathogens that can cause sinus infections. Avoid swimming in such waters or ensure they are properly treated and maintained. Additionally, wearing nose clips or using nasal irrigation after swimming can help remove any potential contaminants from your nasal passages, reducing the risk of sinus infections associated with waterborne pathogens.
