• Can soap residue in a nebulizer be a cause of concern?

I just notices that my nebulizer had some soap residue from when I washed it before, and this was already after I finished using my nebulizer machine. Should I be concerned?

This is unlikely to have any harmful effects, unless of course this became a chronic, daily event.
