What can you do to improve or relieve symptoms of Sinusitis?

What are some drugstore medicines or things to buy.. and also home remedies to relieve chronic Sinusitis?

And could this be caused by too much Dust?

Please let me know anything to help inflamed nasal passages like medicines or home remedies (i would really prefer) that relieves symptoms of Sinusitis and makes it difficult to breathe through the nose.

Sinusitis is a condition in which the sinus cavities around your eyes and nose are infected,producing pressure, pain and gobs of yellow or green mucus.

Get all steamed up. Humidity is the key to keeping the cilia working, the mucus flowing, and the sinuses drained. Twice a day, stand in a shower hot enough to fog up the mirror. Or lean over a pan full of steaming water with a towel drapped over your head, creating a steam tent. Inhale the vapors as they waft up toward your nostrils.

Get a snootful at work. If stuffiness hits during the day when youre at work or on the run, get a cup of hot coffee,tea, or soup, cup your hands over the top of the mug,and sniff. It wont work as well as a steam bath, but it will provide some relief.

Drink to your hearts content. Drinking extra liquids-both hot and cold- throughout the day, thins out the mucus and keeps it flowing. Sipping hot teas made with herbs such as fenugreek,fennel,anise,or asge may help ,move mucus even more.

Use nasal sprays sparingly. Nose drops are fine to use in a pinch, but frequent use could actual;ly prolong the condition or even make it worse.Its what the specialists cal the rebound effect.
What happens is that, initially,the sprays shrink your nasal linings. But then the mucosa reacts by swelling even more than before, creating a vicious cycle of use. IT can take weeks for the swelling to finally subside after your stop using the sprays

Hope I helped

Although I don't have gobs of green or yellow mucus. I just have chronic swollen nasal passages that make it hard to breathe, especially at night!!!!!

I wish I could have recieved more answers to this question. But this was by far the best out of all of them. Report Abuse

doctor visit of course makes sense. netipot seems like a good option for temporary help. not sure if you're beyond the milder methods? Report Abuse

dude, just go to the doctors. you need to get nasonex (only from perscription) and perscription pills to get rid of the symptoms and the disorder.
just trust me on this. I just got over sinusitis and I've never felt better. nasonex and the pills I took are really amazing.

Hey what im about to tell you your gonna thank me lol Have you ever heard of a neti-pot? well doctors swear by it and often use it themselves i love it when i get a cold or allergies act up its a miracle!! I will send you a link to read about it and what to buy from the store do it tonight and youll be able to a have a great sleep =)
