What is a natural cure for sinus infection?


Question:


Answers:
There is no known "cure" for a sinus infection; natural or medical. Here's what we know:

"During a sinus infection or allergies, the sinus passages may become inflamed or irritated. Due to this irritation, the nasal passages can begin to narrow, causing obstruction in the nasal passages. The obstruction of mucus and air can cause a feeling of painful pressure in the sinus passage areas..

While sinus pressure can be a painful affliction, relief can be possible in many cases. The National Institutes of Health offers some treatment options for relief of sinus pressure and pain due to sinusitis and infections. Among many options, they suggest decongestants to reduce nasal congestion, pain relievers to reduce pressure-causing pain such as sinus headaches, inhaling vaporizer steam to soothe inflamed sinus cavities, and saline nasal sprays."

A sinus infection is no fun. It is painful and few people outside of those who have had one can truly appreciated what a person goes through with a sinus infection.

The good news is that several companies are working non-stop on this problem to come up with better solutions and treatments. And the Mayo Clinic's continual findings are really helping to hone in on the problem in order to bring about an effective solution.

Good luck!
