For those of you who HATE HATE HATE sinus pain/congestion, here's what I do when it hits. Use the Neti pot ASAP. I like to use mine 2x a day (morning & night). Remember to use it on both sides Swallow a good 6 cloves of garlic. Cut them up if you need to. I would take 6 at the onset of symptoms and another 6 cloves 12 hours later. Drink some Emergen-C at the onset of symptoms and again every 6-12hrs up to 3x a day. Colloidal Silver is a must. It has to touch what it heals so you guessed it - right on up the nose. Make sure you put some up each side at the onset of symptoms and at least 3x a day. A great homeopathic for Sinusitis that I have seen results with is Mezereum 6c. You can also try Sinusalia®. If your throat is scratchy/sore, get some Wild Cherry Bark or some Eldertussin Syrup. They are both VERY soothing. It's always good to attack it from all angles so get yourself a good ear oil, too. I use Wally's Ear Oil and it works great. All you should be drinking is water (and of course the occasional Emergen-C). Try to get as much rest as possible. I have found that plugging the tub and turning on a steaming hot shower with a few drops of Eucalyptus oil or a mix of Tea Tree and Peppermint oils will help with your breathing as well. Try the TTO and Peppermint oil in a lamp ring diffuser, it's awesome. I hope this helps you as much as it has helped me. I SWEAR by this!! I went to bed (and it wasn't the first time) feeling just terrible. The pressure in my head was insane, I was dizzy from the sinus pressure. But after my treatment that day I woke up feeling a LOT better and I know that continuing my treatment again today I will be just fine This is coming from someone who usually must get prescription meds to clear up my sinus infections. It's that time of year...stock up on your Emergen-C, fresh garlic, Colloidal Silver, EOs, homeopathics and get yourself a Neti Pot!! Everyone please feel free to add your remedies as well!
Take 4 cups distiled water, or boil 5 cups cuz of the vapor, take a jar put 1/2 tsp baking soda and 3tsp of canning salt and stir it in the water and that is saline. Use it as often as you need to or want to. It last for ten days, then you'll want to make new mixture on the tenth day. A doctor gave us that recipe for our son when he was a baby.
yours is cute too. we all swear my kid has a lopsided buttcheek because everyday she has like a 1/2 wedgie. your sig reminds me of that. it's really funny actually
