Question: Does steaming water over the stove have the same effect as a vaporizer.?
My daughter is 3mo and has a mild bronchial infection. She was prescribed a vaporizer but my insurance won't cover it. I just need to know if I can steam water over the stove instead of having to buy one. Health Question & Answer


Answers:
Yes it is the same, but I wouldn't put a baby near a stove. Try running the shower with hot water and leave the curtain or door open a little to the steam can come out, and just sit in the bathroom HOLDING the baby with the bathroom door shut. I used to do this with my kids. Health Question & Answer
