This is supposed to allow steam to get into their nostrils and loosen up the mucus and relieve congestion. Unfortunately, a bath is not the most effective method of doing this, since the temperature can cool quite quickly. Patients may have a better chance at success if they try a hot shower or leaning over a bowl of steam.
