I have a really bad exhaberation of pseudomonas I am also on 2L oxygen 15 hrs, whilst I am at present on abs for treating it will the oxygen cannula s and tubing keep reinfecting me ?? May be a dumb question, but my nose with PND and back of my throats feels so thick n yucky with thick gunge thanks

Whenever I have a cold I tend to constantly wipe my nasal cannula with an antibacterial wipe (I checked it's safety with my chemist). I hope you are feeling better soon.

EDIT - Alcohol swabs are good too.
