In a recent article from updateddailey.com, it touches on the subject of treatment using some home remedies. Excerpts are reproduced as follows:
[Sinusitis is an infection of the sinuses, caused by inflammation of the sinus cavities and surrounding area. Symptoms can include pain and pressure around one or both eyes, the forehead, the cheek or top jaw (sometimes confused for a toothache from the pressure and resulting pain behind the back tooth), as well as foul smelling breath, sinus congestion and nasal discharge, sometimes thick and yellow or green in appearance. Treating Sinusitis can be a challenge.]
[Treating Sinusitis and treating the pain that can be a symptom of sinusitis can be two different matters. Sinus pain can be severe and in some cases even temporarily debilitating. Methods of treating this pain include over-the-counter pain relievers (especially NSAIDS, as they act as an anti inflammatory as well as a pain reliever), heat applied to the area, steam and facial massage.]
[ Sinus irrigation is one natural method for treating Sinusitis as well as preventing it. This practice includes running a stream of warm saline water mixture through one nostril and letting it drain out the other. Debris and bacteria are then washed out of the sinus cavities, preventing infection and clearing the airways.]
