sneezing after neti pot

One of them was using a neti-pot. The neti-pot uses a saline solution to clean out your whole nasal passage. From my experience, I did not notice any reduction in patm from doing this. However, I did breathe a bit clearer. From my experience living with patm, I do not think this theory is the cause of it. At least we are thinking of different theories and testing them out to try and pinpoint whatever might be causing this mysterious enigma.

How long or how many times will you need to use a Neti Pot to feel a difference? I have been having awful sinus headaches and ringing (hissing) in my ears for about 10 days. This is after on and off sinus infections (or what I think are sinus infections) for months.

I have been plugged up since I found out I was pregnant. Its like a cold that lasts 40wks. Am looking forward to clearing up after the baby gets here. Haven't really tried anything, just been suffering through so don't have any helpful hints for you. Sorry.

I suffer from chronic night-time (when in bed to sleep) nasal congestion. It responds well to the medication used in Afrin, which can not be used more than a few nights in a row. I have used a Netti Pot and not gotten any relief I can ascribe to the NP. However, repeated use of saline nasal spray helps - and I use a saline solution in the Netti Pot - so it should help, but the saline spray is much easier.

I just started using the Neti pot. But I have been really uncomfortable with this issue. But good luck.

I would suggest a nasal rinse ( like Neti pot ) instead of taking any medications during pregnancy, but as Jerry_NJ has stated, it's best to ask a doctor before taking any medications during pregnancy.

I have had severe congestion from the very beggining. I use a neti pot and use a steam inhaler. It seems to work pretty good. I have two humidifiers one in living room and one in bedroom. They help me not blow blood when I blow my nose. Some times it gets really bad and it feels like my sinuses are on fire. I'm always sneezing too. I do have alergies which I'm not looking forward to in the next few weeks and all summer long.

I had the same thing last week. It was HORRIBLE!!!! I didn't use anything though. I increased my fluids to loosen up my secretions which seemed to help. But I was also told to do the saline drops and take Benadryl but also did not want to take anything. Mine eventually ended up going down into my chest which was horrible because I don't think I ever coughed so much. I am finally getting over that but my nose is still running and stuffy.

I've had severe allergies for 24 weeks! My whole pregnancy. I have been coughing and sneezing for this long! Now for a month now I have had ear aches, and sore throat. I take claritin once daily, delsum cough medicine, benadryl at night, for the pressure in my ear I plug my nose and mouth and blow air until I hear and feel a mild POP or use steam for nasal problems, I use saline non medicated nasal spray and gargle salt water, I'm gonna buy a humidifier to help too.

I'm not a doctor, nor do I have medical education..it's my experience with mucus, in my sinus area mostly, throat is better now.. I take Mucinex DM, over the counter...it thins the mucus...one in the a.m. and one at nite...12hrs. apart. Also, get yourself a "NEIL MED" netipot..(miracle item for me) DOOOOOOOO NOT USE TAP WATER FOR NETI POT, NEVER!!!...that's a deadly mistake..even if your feel your tap water is safe, don't risk it.

I did the neti pot thing but it wasnt a neti pot it was a plastic bottel with nasal tube and i claned it with tap water and soap and let it dry then i used simpliy purifed bottle water i didnt boil it and im freaking out and i have bad anxiety and im scared.

A neti pot is a way to put warm salt water in one nasal passage and it comes out the other one. It is kind of gross and scary at first because if you do it wrong you get water up ur nose feeling but once you get the hang of it its amazing. It reduces swelling, moistens ur nose if ur dry, gets out snot and such. If you do it twice a day your problem will most likely resolve.

Well, I've been using the neti pot for almost a week now, and I can say that I notice a DRAMATIC DIFFERENCE in my sinus issues. And I haven't used a steroid nasal spray in a week as well. My sinuses run much less, my sneezing has dropped off dramatically, and my eyes are no longer stinging. The change was gradual, but I think I am a convert. And man, you can't beat that fresh clean feeling this thing gives your sinuses.

Did I do this right? I made a homemade neti pot using a squirt bottle which I washed before using and let dry, then I boiled filtered water for over 10 minutes and poured it into the bottle and added some salt. That should make it completely safe and sterile right?

Hello Rahul, I'm not sure if you have sinus, allergy, or asthma. Nose sprays should have given you some relief from nasal blockage. I swear by one product 'NEILMED" neti pot. Go to the drugstore where they sell the Neilmed white neti pot which include solution for you to use. My family, grandkids use it all the time when nose is blocked. Not the squirt up nose type (tho u may try that too)...as I prefer the white tea pot type.

The nasal odor is usually caused by an anaerobic bacteria, which usually doesn't cause enough congestion to be detected by an ENT. A neti pot or Neilmed may not work, because gravity limits their effectiveness to the lower sinuses, and the stink seems to come from the upper sinuses.. The only way to flush it out is a Flip-Turn Sinus Flush, which has been effective for many people with this problem.

I use a humidifier at night when I sleep. I have been using a neti pot.

Have u tried a neti pot? It works wonders For me. If not, get one and see If It helps. Take a long hot shower to loosen everything up and Then use The neti pot as soon as u get out. Whenever I have bad nasal congestion That's what I do. It really helps.

I have been sick almost my whole pregnancy and the one thing I found helped was using a nasal spray or neti pot. If those still don't help I would say go to your doc as they may be able to Gove u something to help.

ve just noticed that the anxiety seems to follow the use of your NETI pot in the morning. If you are using the NETI pot correctly, you should not be getting any of the solution in your stomach. Or at the very least, just a drop or two which I can't think would make you "hot and anxious." I would suggest not using the NETI for a few days and see if that stops the problem. If it does, you need to discuss a possible adverse reaction with your doctor.

Have you tried using a neti pot or other sinus irrigation technique? I have had sinus problems since childhood and whenever I start to get the headaches, I use my neti pot. It has helped greatly.

Try a nasal flush like neti pot or just a kit bought at a drug store. i had this problem for years and it seems to be much better after i discovered this. good luck.

i dont recomment any antibiotics or fungal agent more then 4 wks. the nasal spray along with the neti pot will finish the job. the neti pot is the only long term step to follow.

Hi, Hi Desperate wife. You don't need to spend a $100 on a nasal cleansing machine. You can get the same thing by using the neti pot. Here's a New York Time's article on the Neti Pot: http://www.nytimes.com/2008/01/03/fashion/03skin.html?_r=1&adxnnl=1&oref=slogin&emc=eta1&adxnnlx=1204903709-QI78z01KvZ011nzC3OEwkg It costs about $15 bucks. The Neti pot has been used in Asia for years, and years.
