The change in seasons is fasinating to me. I love to look at the way the environment changes so beautifully all around me. But the change in seasons isn't so great for some. I'm talking to you allergy sufferers. I can empathize with your pain. My poor husband was just like you once. The change in seasons was followed by itchy watery eyes/nose and sinus pressure galore.
Luckily, I was told about the Netty Pot! It is a miracle in compact form. The containers look either like a genie lamp or an old tea pot.
*You simply fill it with warm water and a special saline packet (comes with pot and sold separately).
*You lean over the sink and place the spout in one nostril and tilt your head so the solution (about 1/2 pot) can flow through the sinus cavitites and exit the opposite nostril. You have to breath through your mouth while this is going on. The process is a bit ackward at first but after a bit you get the hang of it.
*Then you lightly blow your nose and repeat on other side.
The resulting relief is UNBELIEVEABLE!!!
I have also tried this myself when I had horrible sinus pressure that just wouldn't go away. I never take medicine so that wasn't an issue with me, but my husband was a fanatic about allergy meds. He tried this process for about 1 month and now he no longer has issues. If any DO happen to arise he uses the Netty Pot and relief comes quickly. Only 2 flair ups in the last year. And he had serious issue before.
You can get this products reasonably cheap. I got mine on sale and with the solution packets included paid around $10 and it's lasted about 1 year. Can you say the same for your so called allergy relief medicine? Try it and let me know how it works for you! Happy breathing!!!
