Sinus infection/constant nose being clogged. How do I get rid of this? I'm 18 and I've had this clogged up nose for basically all the time. On and off. It's usually that I have a little cold/clogged nose, then I get sick and it gets worse, then it gets better, but it's still there.
Seriously how do I treat this? The doctor just keeps prescribing the same pills even though I mention that I've always had this problem.
There has to be a way. I can feel my face being buffy, my eyes being like tired all the time even when I'm not actually tired.
Does it like remove the inflammation or something? Have you tried it? I'm researching it now and gonna add it to my list on things to try.

I had this avoid dairy for a few days so the mucus clears up, sometimes this is all you need to do drink water + one tablespoon of organic apple cider vinegar, 2 times a day for about 3-5 days, this can wipe out any bad germs that have made a home in your sinuses eat spicy foods like curry to clear sinuses, or take hot baths get lots of sleep, drink water avoid sodas, sugars and other foods that can cause inflammation, this is advisable all the time since these things aren't good for you and you'll age faster eating them

Could have a deviated septum. Have had it for a few years now and it feels like a permanent cold. Can easily get rid of it with surgery though.
Andrew Smith
you can also try this, it's inconvenient though, have to make warm salt water and it only clears up for a while

but it can also dislodge any allergens or dust that have become trapped in your nose and maybe causing the inflammation
you may just have very sensitive sinus lining and do not listen to your doctors if they recommend surgery to trim them, try the natural ways first
Connor Reyes
Thanks for the advice. Will start doing these. I've also read now that blowing your nose is bad. I've been doing it all the time...

>tfw pulled my back and it hurts to even walk now >get fucking muscle spasms from turning my neck Please Mr. Bogdanoff make the call and have the sniper hit my temple
blowing your nose hard when it's totally blocked and inflamed is bad, just puts unnecessary pressure on your sinus and brain
blowing it gently when it's just partially blocked to clear it is fine
also doctors aren't as smart as they pretend I had one say the ears, nose and throat weren't connected once... another tried to make me buy a $20 cream for something that can be cleared just by wearing warm socks...

Brother, google “nose filters” they’re kind of a big deal. Hopefully they can help make you more comfy.

find a functional medicine doctor. besides a full blood panel including inflammation markers, complete blood count, t4/tsh etc, get your sinuses cultured and make sure that they culture for MRSA and funguses. this culture will take a month to complete because MRSA grows slowly. Get a CT scan or MRI of your skull to check if you have a cyst or abcess in your sinuses which could provide a 'safe place' for bacteria even though you take antibiotics. get an allergy test to find out if you have any enviromental or food allergies which could contribute to chronic inflamed sinuses or weakened immune system. There are other things to consider but this should be your course of action to start. I'm sorry to say that your current doctor, like most doctors, will avoid doing anything except prescribing medication or telling you that 'this is just how things are.' You can't trust them to investigate the cause of your situation without a lot of push on your part. this is why i recommend a functional medicine doctor, they are MD's like the rest but they specialize in figuring out chronic issues like yours. also, don't delay. Chronic infections can be a sign of underlying immune dysfunction, gut dysfunction, environmental toxin exposure, allergies, other infections, and other stuff. I know all of this because I've had a chronic sinus infection for 4 years, went to ~ 10 different doctors before I finally learned it is MRSA compounded and caused by an autoimmune disorder. This type of problem is more common than your retard primary care physician knows.

I cracked a rib trying to do a ninja roll, now it hurts to laugh at every funny post on 4ch :'(
Andrew Carter
it hurts my spine to laugh, I can feel the pressure travel up my fucking neck. Shouldn't have watched Trailer Park Boys because I forgot every episode has one scene that catches me offguard.
Gavin Ortiz
>funguses yep, this is why apple cider vinegar and spicy foods are best, they have antifungal properties
maybe it starts by inhaling mold particles from fruit
Isaac Brown
Damn that's a lot of stuff. Thanks for the info. I'm gonna take this seriously now and finally treat this awful thing.
Ayden Butler
This, every morning and evening. Also nose oil, like Coldastop

could be mold or something bad in the house, a source of spores constantly fucking with your immune system
thing about your immune system is that even if you get out of that environment, it can take a few days at least for you to start feel better.
I used to live in shitty student accommodation and I had the same symptoms. Began to notice that I wasn't showing any symptoms once I was visiting my parents for long enough.
Blake Cox
Does this not only give relief for like an hour? I have also developed a permanent stuffed nose in the past few years.
Logan Foster
OP I had the same issues you're describing for as long as I can remember. I have severe nasal allergies.
You need to get acupuncture on the ear. There is a pressure point on the ear lobe which connects to your nasal passage. Try to find a chinese doctor that is knowledgeable in this area. You just need to get it done once every 3 months and you'll notice a massive improvement.
enjoy bro deep breathing is everything.
Noah Perez
if you've lived in the same place for a long time, that could most likely be the cause.
you could have mold, asbestos, or worse. do a deep cleaning of your entire house and get one of those air purifier machines.
could be mold in the attic and everytime it's a windy day, it gets blown through the vents into the house!

Colton Brooks
red hot chili peppers to sniff regularly to clear it out, eat spicy food etc
Nicholas Howard
OP mega dose Vitamin C.
Does wonders for your whole system.
Can virtually guarantee you'll shift that in a few days.
Christian Gutierrez
I have the same. Also all my life. I get a running and clogged up nose from basically anything.
I had a doctor cut some of my mucous membrane away. It's not gone, but a lot less now.
Angel Stewart
shoulda tried the vinegar first... wish I knew about it...
Justin Evans
You should try having pelvic floor dysfunction.
Adam Nelson
low histamine diet, low carb diet, dont be a faggot and do stupud shit like eat carbs and sugar. Dont eat anything with flavour
preferably try an all meat diet for a few weeks, make sure the meat is FRESH, as in not aged for three weeks like ALL butchers do
then add things back in and see what caused your nose being full of shit because i guarantee its food and i guarantee is not meat
Eli Fisher
Take this (pic related). Thank me later. This is literally life saving information.
you should try methylcobalomin injections, with methyfolate supps
also OP, do the functional doctor thing, while i said your diet is causing this, theres all kinds of things that could/are causing your sensitivity to foods.

In addition to my advice earlier: Look for mold infestation in your home. Watch this documentary for more info: m.youtube.com/watch?v=VI0_azQv6N8#

Swimming and/or moving to a coastal marine climate are the only things that will help.
Dylan Wilson
Could be toxic stuff in your room like toxic cheap plastic or judt a lot of dust
Juan Cook
Eat and live clean. If that doesn't help you can try using Cyclamen extract/Nasodren
