Natural cure for sinus
Sinusitis is amongst the most common nasal ailments in the world, affecting an estimated 30-50 million people in the United States alone. Sinusitis occurs when the sinus cavities are inflamed and are not only exerting pressure but are also very painful. This infection can be fungal, allergic, or viral.
There are a number of ways to relieve the discomfort and pain of sinusitis. Amongst the most time-tested remedies in the world is steam inhalation. Heat water in a bowl or in a commercially available steamer and inhale deeply.
Adding eucalyptus oil to this water is very beneficial for clearing up your sinuses. Repeat this for about 15-20 every four hours.
When you are suffering from sinusitis, you should ensure that you get enough rest and that you are consuming mostly hot liquids such as soup and herbal teas. Drink a lot of hot water as this will soothe your throat and thin out the mucus blockage. Even if you are feeling sluggish, you should try and get some exercise because the hormone release during exercise may help clear up your sinuses faster. Avoid using perfumes, soaps, and even cloth detergents that have a strong fragrance that might stress your blocked nose further. Add a Vitamin C supplement to your diet to give you added immunity. If your symptoms persist for more than four days, consult your doctor for treatment.
