Sinus Pain!

Sorry guys, but no Wet Polish Wednesday for this week. I've been battling a sinus infection for about a week now and it's been making me lazy. Any home remedies? I may just have to succumb to antibiotics but I was trying the natural method since I'm nursing.

More later...

Try a "netti pot." It's all natural, you get it at walmart or walgreens or whatever. It's just a saline solution that you put through one nostril and it comes out the other. It's gross, but man, it relieves the pressure. I never had even heard of this before until I got pregnant and my neighbor brought me one because its all natural. Also, sit in the bottom of the shower with the hot water running and just enjoy the steam. It really helped me a lot with mine. Good luck sis! Feel better! Love you!

i recently had one and i used eucalyptus oil to get rid of it. i put a drop on my finger and rubbed it on the outside of my nose and along the sinus tract and then took a q tip and put another drop and rubbed the inside of my nose with that, NOT VERY DEEP. it kicked its butt! fastest ive ever recovered from a sinus infection.

unfort, if it is a true infection, you might need the meds. hopefully, the natural advice will do the trick. i have no ideas but much sympathy for you. seems it runs in your family. whether you are braving it or just avoiding the doc (the second would be me), it's time to kill this thing!
