neti pot
Look this up on line - it is the most reasonably priced answer to sinus problems. It seems sort of strange at first, but if you keep it up -you should see results. Sometimes the old-timey stuff works the best. The rest is just there to make money for someone else. Definitely stay away from the steroids. They are very damaging to your body.
Believe it or not.....the Neti Pot really does
it helps to wash out all the allergens from his sinus cavities. My daughter who is now 26 finally decided to give it a try and she was very amazed at how well it worked. She doesn't walk around stuffy all the time now!
Our neighbor has an 8 year old son who ENT doctor here in town said he HAD to have sinus surgery, so they did, and his problems only got worse. She took him to an out of town ENT who was mortified that they did surgery on a kid of 8 in the first place but said he rarely cares for sinus surgery to "unclog" sinuses.
He suggest she use something similar to a Neti Pot, which was a water pic type device. This child actually liked using it and it worked like a charm......it cleared out junk you wouldn't believe was in there in the first place. He rarely has had any stuffiness from allergies since. The surgery only caused scarring.
I second the Neti pot.
We use one, and it's amazing how much better allergy season is for all of us. I have a friend who is Korean, and flushing the sinuses is really part of their regular hygiene routine. She taught me about Neti pots. We even rarely get colds now that we do this routinely.
Neti Pot
Had never heard of one, so looked it up online.. Where do you get them at? We have terrible allergy/sinus junk almost year round.. so this really seems to work? you learn something new every day~
Have you ever tried a neti pot to cleanse your sinus
Maybe you should ask your doctor first, but these things are great. I don't have major sinus problems, but I do have an itchy nose from allergies, and my neti pot helped me. Here's a link to amazon.com if you want to check it out.

I would take Neti to desert island. sm
Used to have to take 2 Sudafed (the real kind) and one Benadryl per day, then had to go to Allegra D every so often, just to keep ahead of my allergies. If I use the Neti Pot every day, I might have to take one sudafed a week, and we are in the Ohio Valley, which is apparently where all allergists want to live - very profitable for them, ha!
Seriously, i would take it to a deserted island if i had that option. It's that good.

Very true! Chronic sinusitis here, neti pots don't work for me but oceans do!
