Can a neti pot clear up chronically infected sinus cavities?!
Question:
Can a neti pot clear up chronically infected sinus cavities?
I've been told by a doctor, after looking at my X-rays, that I'll need surgery to clear the cavities. However, "only in America" (as they say) - no health insurance... What can I do?
Answers:
Hi timmarlowe53, do not hurry with surgery,
Will Previously try these recipes:
Use Usnea. Its a lichen. It taste horrible, and I won't even pretend it doesn't. But it cleared up my sinistitis in 2 days. It also cleared up my bronchitis in 2 days. Course it took me a week to get the nerve to drink the stuff, its that bitter.
Other wise, you can try Brighamtea, horesraddish and cayenne. For immediate relief of sinus pressure use 20 drops. 1/4 teaspoon in 2 oz of hot water. May be taken every 30 mins. Provided you are not allergic to the ingredients.
You can also use all powdered: Cayenne, 1 part Bayberry root bark, 2 parts Golden Seal. Mix and sift through a fine sieve. Use as a snuff.
Personally I did not like the neti pot method. It was a mess to use and I almost had to take my shirt off to keep from getting it wet. More importantly, it also was not effective for me. Some people say a neti pot works well for them, so it might be worth a try.
