I’ve seen that you should buy distilled water to rinse your nose with, but I probably get regular water in my eyes and nose when I shower anyways wouldn’t it be dangerous while showering also?

My mother is in her 5th month of battling Acanthamoeba keratitis in her eye. She apparently got it by washing her face with tap water (city water, not well water) and most likely got some under a contact lens and the infection entered into her cornea. Don’t look it up the pics are nasty. Doctors say she probably has 6+ months more of treatment left before she will most likely need a transplant.
Point is, even treated city water has some nasty shit in it and there are chances that stuff can get into places it shouldn’t. Rising your nose by forcing water up it vs just showering is quite a world of difference and there is a chance some bad shit can happen, especially putting it up into your nasal cavity which has some thin membranes or could have some scratches.
