) as it driving me mad. thankyou
Answers:
I should go and see your doctor again, sometimes one course of antibiotics is not enough, you may need an extra course because it seems the infection has really taken a hold of you. Try to avoid things that can irritate it whilst on treatment, ie, gardening, painting, dusting, (get a member of your family to do these for you). Go and have a good night out to forget about it for a while lol. I hope you feel better soon.
Your chemist will sell you a small pot of menthol crystals for next to nothing. Put a small pinch of crystals in a bowl, add hot water and inhale with towel over your head. You will definitely clear your sinuses.
inhale hot water vapours
Sinus infections, assuming your diagnosis is correct, statistically get little benefit from antibiotics, and as you demonstrate patients with chronic sinus problems often only get temporary relief, even from surgery. Go back and SEE your GP, it may be that management for mucous membrane instability, such as nasal steroids might be appropriate.
It sounds wierd, but I guess people do this...there's these pots with spouts which, believe it or not, people will put a salt water solution in and put it in one nostril, and flush out the sinuses, letting it come out the other nostril.
I don't know if there's a name for it. The doctor at my wife's health care place recommended it.
Try getting friars bolsom (not sure of the spelling) put IN the amount as per instructions in boiling water in a large bowl, then get a towel put it over your head and inhale the fumes. This will clear your head and nose. good luck.
