Ohai frog legs

Neti pot with saline saves me from getting sinus infections! It's nasty and unpleasant, but better than staying at home for days and taking antibiotics.

And you want to take this. It's the shiznit.

Actually, I'm all with you on the saline douche for the nostrils!

I have a saline squirter that I carry around with me and I squirt my nose out about 3x a day... It looks like a little Otravin pump bottle but it's just saline which is what the Netty pot is.

I agree with you TOTALLY on this. As if I do get a cold, it's always the sinuses that get all hurty and stuff... Saline spray and hand washing is what I hope will keep me less sick this year!

ooooooh maximum strength! I have regular sudafed but it's such a pain in the #### buying the orginal formula (I call it real sudafed) now because people can use it to make meth. you have to show your ID and sign papers and stuff to buy the real stuff.

Frog legs, you kinky thing! I have one too, when I am travelling on a plane. Like a saline nasal spray. And I always use a bit of bepanthen in my nostrils (nice, we turned this thread into a nostril and mucus one!). And I have a humidifier at work to keep the air moist, that is super important also. I still get a slight angina every few days plus swollen glands in my throat but I fight it with homeopathic drops that work wonders.

As for the real sudafed - I can't do it, I get paranoid from speed.

The real sudafed is what works for me. I just looked at the website for the different versions of the real one. I just want one called super duper relief. I should be able to take it and then 2 minutes later breathe. Since that doesn't exist I guess I will continue to sip on listerine like a lush.

Pffft... nothing kinky about nostrils and humidification and salination! This is SERIOUS business. I don't have dry skin really or any other afflicitions but as soon as it gets cold and the heating gets turned on, my nose drives me bonkers all winter long. Dry, hurty and an open invitation for sinus infections and colds.

I am all about nostril health -- and on that basis alone? We can forge a friendship...

do you use distilled water in your humidifier?

Time to go to dr appt. I'll report back with my sinus diagnosis.
