I have had lifelong problems with my sinuses. On of the Ear, Nose and Throat specialists prescribed a medication and applicator made for the purpose of clearing out one's nose. The treatment is very effective. The irrigant is called "ALKALOL", yes with an "L". It has some of the things as described in the earlier post but in addition it has Eucalyptus, etc. It is very pleasant smelling and relatively inexpensive, about $2.50 a bottle. The Dr. also prescribed an "Nose Irrigator", basically a shaped tube, closed at one end with a tapered end at the other. This tapered end is inserted in the nose, one nostril at a time. The liquid is released by uncovering the fill hole which is located on the side of the tube. The "Alkalol-Water mixture then flows gently into the nose, with the head tilted back. The stuff will then flow into the sinuses and loosen the debris. I find that in the winter I generally need to do it twice a day, otherwise in the evening. These are over the counter items but mostly are not on the drugstore shelves. You may have to ask for them at the Pharmacy Counter. K-F Etzold (Cg Carline 73/5) PS. Greetings to Ivan.
