chlorine smell of hose - christian4870 - 09-12-2017

Hi,
i have got a hose from a doctor, but it smells like chlorine? Maybe from cleaning?
I do not like this smell. Does somebody know how to get out this from the hose?
Otherwise I trow it away..

You may try soaking it in a distilled vinegar/ water solution for a few minutes and then rinsing well with warm water. I use 1/4 cup to a gallon of water. Be sure to rinse until the vinegar odor is gone.
