My sympathies. I suffer with it alot. Get a steam inhaler, if no menthol crystals put some vick in the water.
Take 2 sudofed every 4 hours.
Hope it clears soon. xx |

I suffer from this too it's hideous isn't it.
the best cure I've found is steaming at least twice a day, once in the morning and once in the evening.
also cutting down on diary products helps, if you can make the switch from cows milk to goats / soya all the better.
good luck x |

yes.. because I suffered horribly with it a few months ago and started a thread on it.. so know what it feels like....
I attacked it on two fronts... medicine.... sudafed do a specific variety for sinus pressure and pain.. you can only get it at places like boots and they keep it behind the counter because it is prescription strength...
the other part is diet.... for the time being cut out all dairy if you can.... I didn't know that it stimulate mucus production..
hopefully those help in the short term till you get rid of the cold.... |

I've had antibiotics for it. Sudafed helps too. Plus painkillers. |

Boots do an electric inhaler. You put these little pads in it and turn it on over night. Releases menthol vapour over 8 hours. Saves my life overnight. No dairy and steam with a couple of drops of albos oil. Good luck. Xx |

i know it sounds stupid, but i suffer with it badly...
extra strong mints clear my sinuses and alleviate the pressure... you need 2-3 in your mouth at once and suck them for a few mins...
it doesn't always work, but it sometimes alleviates it

used to suffer every couple of months due to having nose broken many times up until I had it drilled !! steer clear of otravine style nose sprays as give bad come back and make it worse. try a beconase nose spray and anti histamine and steam bath, once you can breath through nose use a neti pot with a sea salt solution and use regularly and will clear up in no time. |
