Located behind the bones of the face are hollow spaces filled with air. These hollow spaces are the sinuses and they act as a passage between the nasal cavity and the nostrils. So what is sinusitis? Sinusitis is an inflammation or swelling of the sinuses. Common symptoms include pain or pressure in the face, nasal obstruction or blockage, and a thick post-nasal drip. Those suffering from sinusitis may also experience headaches, a fever, or feel fatigued.

One option to relieve the sinus pressure and nasal congestion associated with sinusitis is to flush the sinuses with a homemade saline solution. Saline solution can be made by combining one-fourth teaspoon of salt, one-eighth teaspoon of baking soda, and 4 ounces of warm water. Using a bulb syringe, you can flush your nose two to four times per day. This can greatly help to alleviate nasal congestion and help the nose to drain.

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.

Another sinus relief tip is inhaling steam is also another remedy that can be helpful. Steam can come from a vaporizor or from a shower. You could even boil a bowl of water, lean over it with a towel draped over your head and hanging down to provide a curtain to guide the steam up. Doing this a few minutes a day can also provide relief.

Besides the tender nose, pressure in the forehead there is also the constant feeling that one’s ears are stuffed or that something is pushing in the ear canal. Sinus sufferers often hear a crackling noise in their ears that must be from the mucus or the irritation in the sinus cavities. The ears don’t usually hurt but the constant clearing and crackling noise is irritating and often leads to what could become a dangerous habit of inserting cotton swabs in the ear canal to try and clear out the obstruction.

Treating Sinusitis naturally may be possible with a new product called SINUVIL. SINUVIL is a natural remedy, made from a medicinal plant native to South Africa, called the Pelargonium.
