....my sinuses are jacked

[NOKUY]

.....im sure some/most of yours are too...prolly comes w/ the territory

however, here is my issue (and prolly too many variables to conclude any 1 thing), but i figured i'd ask anyway....someone might hit on someting.

ok the biggest issue i have is that im ALWAYS congested in my sinuses...i hack shit out all the time

...like huge ass, hard, cornflakes of snot....it doesn't come from my throat...always have to hack it down from the upper sinus area...so like "snort and hack" if that makes sense......and sorry to be so graphic, but this gets old.

i've never done any drugs that go thru the nose or shit like that, so it can't be from that.

i'm allergic to some shit like hay and grass, and mold ...some tree pollen and mold ...(esp. mold)...but im at 9000+ feet in colorado...i can't grow mold if i try.

...and its not seasonal...its all the time

i've been to the doc a cpl times, and he just says it sounds like chronic sinusitis ....can't prescribe anything, and if it gets too bad go to a specialist....(no help)...or maybe i need a specialist...but fuk.

....i bought me a "sinus irrigation system"

like shoving a fukin' carwash wand up your nose w/ nasty salt solution....didn't help..

...and i don't smoke much (like 5 hits a day from a glass pipe)....and don't touch tobacco, and never have.



being so dry like afghanastan where i'm at maybe a humidifier would help

any ideas???...

doc ruled out sinus infection every single time...btw

yeah sound like the air is just dry where you are, i experience allergies almost all year round cept spring and early fall. try a humidifier...speaking of which im gonna fill mine back up cuz my whole shit is dry.

 

[billy_big_bud!]

one thing i have found helpful is breathe right nose strips.

A quality indoor air cleaner is worth its weight in gold.Oreck has one which is upwards of $500.00 and runs 2 weeks before it needs cleaning.I wish I would have gotten it sooner.

when you hit the hot shower, does the steam feel good on the sinuses? if so, i'd say get the humidifier, boy did it feel good when i first walked into my place with it going during a cold, dry winter.

I see a lot of quality replies already YUK,
in this order to help you imo would be:
vaporizer
Oreck air purifier
breath right nose strips for sleeping
also use a saline nose/sinus mister, nothing
else, saline only no lubricants or glycerins.

although mentioned last the saline spray will offer immediate relief.

hey man when you blow your nose

do you blow two nostrils at a time ?

 

[resinryder]

Use some Vicks vapor rub, just a touch, inside each nostril. Will open you right up.

if your on dairy its difficult to know if its an allergy or just dairy puss or local allergens plus pus from the dairy thats accumulating, id let the dairy go for a week to life and see how much better u can respirate once your cow tit addiction is cracked.

We'll start by ruling out anything related to strenuous work,it could be an allergic reaction to something in your 'do.

If it's a mouse,its feces could give you hantavirus.

That nasal machine looks like about as much fun as a coca cola enema. I suggest you get a netti pot instead from the drugstore. While your'e there pick up an over the counter nasal spray like neosenephrine. Spray 3 or 4 sprays of that into the saline water before you use the netti pot. Follow the directions that come with it other than that. For bonus points bend at the waist and force the solution into your upper sinuses. You will be glad you did and its way cheaper than that machine, like 10 bucks, and very effective if done regularly. oh yeah almost forgot use bottled water. tap water wont hurt you but it burns.

suprised no one has said it.

Truth be told, most i think most homopathic shit is snake oil, but...

Capsaicin.

Its like snorting hot pepper extract, BUT your nose doesnt have the 'heat' receptors.

I would describe its first time use as 'a sensation'.

It doesnt hurt, but its definitely a unique and i doubt anyone would describe it as enjoyable. (BUT NOT painful, i would recommend it for a child, less pain than H2O2 for a cut/scrape).

i would do it over a sink, because it REALLY gets shit flowing, like a waterfall the first time.

Ive read 3-5 doses will actually give you semi-immunity from allergies. I see a law of diminishing returns, and probablly only use it onve every 2-3months.

Stop smoking and move to vaping or fat soluble edibles.
