Self-care remedies for rhinitis and sinusits you can apply at home




The other day I posted remedies that you can apply at home.
That posting was a hit, so I explain it again.
If you would like to know more information on self-treatment
for your nose, visit my youtube channel, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mijfLwBuW-0

Here you will watch a self-suction method by Dr. Lee's method.







Prepare a cup of salt water at lukewarm temperature. 
 
Pouring plain cold water into the nose can cause stingy sensation. It is similar as swimming pool water get into your nose. But lukewarm water that replicates mucus' natural salinity does not irritate the nasal mucosa as much. Once you get adjusted, the salinity level may not matter much.
 
 
 
 
While you are standing in front of the sink, pour warm salt water into one side of the nose. Alternate the side, while pinching the other side to close.
 
Try the salt water pour into your nose to come out through your mouth.
You could, however, adjust the amount of water pouring into your nose to drain out of your other nostril, instead of your mouth. As you gain experience, you may be able to pass the water into the mouth more easily. You should spit the water out in your mouth.
 
Repeat the procedure several times.
 
 
Or you can appply this method. (This method requires bulb syringe)
 
 
 
 
 
Hold a mouthful of salt water in your mouth.
 
Tilt your head forward, so that your forehead is positioned lower than the mouth.
 
Block one side of the nose and make a, "mmmm" sound, inducing the water in the mouth to run through the nasal passages.
 
Continuing the sound moves the water to follow the resonance, exiting trough the mouth. This can be done in seconds without wetting your face once you get used to it.
 
The last method requires a bulb syringe that you can purchase from a pharmacy.
 
Fill a syringe with warm salt water.
 
Tilt your head so that one nostril is pointed down toward the sink and insert the tip of the syringe into your nose.
 
Gently squeeze the syringe.
 
The salt water goes into the nose and drains out the same way and exits to the sink. Occasionally, some portion of the water passes through the other side of the nose. Any water that goes to the back of the throat should be spit out.
 
Repeat on the other side in the same way.
