@Raj: I ran into a snag last night with my neti pot. I was finally so stuffed up that I couldn’t get anything to go through in either direction. I needed a neti pot with a fire hose attachment, or full of acid maybe.

I’ve used the squirt bottle where you push it up your nose and force the water up. I had been sick for a little while and one of the symptoms was a bacterial build up in my nose. It was quite uncomfortable and there was an odor IN MY NOSE. Flushing out the bacteria was the only thing that relieved my nose and it helped a lot. Other than that, it does help with congestion but that is a temporarily solution that may not be any better than blowing your nose.

Thanks Ann. It’s great to here from someone who actually recommends the NP to clients. Every 2-3 hours is pretty intense, but if that works for you, I’m willing to try it. thanks for the comment. My wife and I both have enjoyed your blog, by the way. Gardens and food: I think we’d all get along famously.

I recommend sinus flushes a lot in my emergency medicine practice. I love your pictures. I usually refer my patients to the video at SinuCleanse.com but maybe I’ll send them here instead!

I do a flush every 2-3 hours at the first sign of a cold, and have avoided upper respiratory infections for a few years now. That’s a powerful motivation to keep flushing, considering how many infected people I treat per shift (and how often my colleagues get sick).

Josh have you been visiting the zoo letting the deer lick your nose?
