Home remedies for sinusitis
A sinus is a hollow interval in the body located inside the bones of the head surrounding the nose. The frontal sinuses are over the eyes, the maxillary sinuses are inside the cheekbone, the ethmoid sinuses are in-between the eyes and behind the nose-bridge and the sphenoid sinuses are behind these ethmoids-that is the higher nasal area and at the back of the eyes.
Effective home remedy for sinus infection:
1. A teaspoon.
2. A 10 ml plastic syringe WITHOUT needle.
3. A small cup.
4. 100gm of Sodium Bicarbonate powder.
The steps taken to perform nasal irrigation are as follows:
1. Mix 1 teaspoonful of the powder into a small cup of water and stir the mixture. Fill up the syringe with the sodium bicarbonate solution by pulling back the plunger of the syringe after immersing it into the solution.
2. Lower your head into the basin
3. Place the opening of syringe into the upper nostril creating a complete seal and inject the saline solution slowly and gently so that it flows into that nostril, through the nasal passages, and out the other lower nostril. You may either hold your breath while doing this or breathe through your mouth, whichever is more comfortable to you.
4. Expel the remaining saline solution and mucus trapped in the nasal passages by blowing them out of the nostrils. For best results, it would be better to keep one nostril shut and blow out the contents through the other and repeat.
5. Repeat the entire process by alternately tilting the head to the other side and inserting the syringe through the other nostril. When most of the solution is used up, pour what is left into the mouth and gargle for a minute before spitting the contents out.
