Sinusitis Relief 

You probably have a sinus infection if you wakeup and it feels like there is an 800 pound gorilla sitting on your face. The pain above your eyes and around your cheekbones is excruciating. It hurts to move your head. You just want to lie back down and go to sleep, but when you lay down it hurts worse. You have sinusitis and you need relief. 

Blowing your nose doesn’t work because the infection is in your sinus cavities and not in the immediate nasal cavities. Do you have an earache, as well? Then you definitely need to get those sinuses to drain. 

The root cause of a sinus infection is an inflammation of the sinus cavities. Sinus cavities come in pairs like shoes, a left and right. You have four pairs of sinus cavities. The symptoms and the corresponding treatment or sinusitis relief are dependent on the sinus area affected. 

These sinuses are supposed to evacuate mucus from the nose. However, when the sinuses become inflamed and swollen the mucus is trapped inside the cavities. Your body doesn’t know that the mucus isn’t draining and continues to produce more until the cavities are swollen and pressing against facial nerves.  

You have frontal sinusitis if you hurt when lowering your head. If you experience pain while your head is upright, this is called maxillary sinusitis. If the lower part of your nose and around the corners of the eyes is painful it is ethmoid sinusitis. Pain and discomfort when bending forward or lying down is a sign of sphenoid sinusitis. 

Sinusitis relief include herbal remedies, homeopathic remedies, anti-allergy remedies, antibiotics, sprays and nasal irrigation. There is a consensus in the medical community that antibiotics are ineffective in treating sinusitis. This doesn’t mean your doctor won’t give you a prescription, though. Most doctors won’t tell you there is nothing they can do. They used to prescribe SudafedÒ before it became an over-the-counter medication. They’re now left with giving higher-priced antibiotics and tell you to come back in two weeks if you’re not better. They know the condition will generally clear up by itself within a week. But, you still have the excruciating pain and two weeks is a long time to suffer. 

In contrast, home remedies for treating sinusitis are natural and free of most side effects. These herbal remedies are generally safe and have been used for centuries to treat sinusitis and sinus infections. However, some herbs do contain certain active substances that can cause unwanted side effects. Always consult your doctor before mixing herbal supplements with any prescription medications you’re taking if you really want to experiment sinusitis relief. 

I’ve suffered from sinus infections for the past 20 years until recently when a friend showed me a book she bought called “Home Remedies For Sinus Infection That Work”. The book is from Dr. Christina Starkman and she has treated hundreds of sinus patients with amazing results. The book is $19.00 and worth five times as much as far as I’m concerned. I bought it and began the treatment, within a few days my sinuses were clear, and all of the pressure and pain were gone.   

The book is still available and you can get your own personal copy by clicking on the blue button labeled “Get It Now” directly below the photo of her book. Take my word for it; you’ll be happy you did. Sinusitis Relief is about a click for you.
