Sinus pressure
Sucks. Or should I say doesn't suck since I can't get air through either nostril!

Sounds like you need to try the neti pot.

It doesn't sound like it would be a real pleasant experience but I guess if you had a really clogged up nose it might be worth it.omaha_red wrote:my wife swears by her netipot.. i refuse to try it..cardinalkarp wrote:I've never tried it myself but I've heard it works really well.wart57 wrote:I have been told about this by co-workers.

Re: Sinus pressure
I have never tried this so I don't know if it works, but I've been told if you take a hot water bottle and place it over your eyes and sinus cavities it breaks up the congestion.

“I would recommend never putting the Vicks in, or under, the nose of anybody — adult or child,” said Rubin, whose work is published in the latest issue of the journal Chest. “I also would follow the directions and never use it at all in children under age 2.”

I don't think it'd work if you were clogged up, you'd probably drown.cardinalkarp wrote:It doesn't sound like it would be a real pleasant experience but I guess if you had a really clogged up nose it might be worth it.omaha_red wrote:my wife swears by her netipot.. i refuse to try it..cardinalkarp wrote:I've never tried it myself but I've heard it works really well.wart57 wrote:I have been told about this by co-workers.
