Guest guest Posted January 20, 2009 Report Share Posted January 20, 2009 Well, I just have this terrible problem of keeping my nose unstuffed. Especially when I lie down my nose plugs up. I am taking Nasonex but it still plugs up. Any ideas? Blue Flyer AZ 11-08 IPF Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 20, 2009 Report Share Posted January 20, 2009 It sounds like sinus which I am plagued with. I use a netty pot with warm salt water and flush my sinus a couple times a day. If I use it like I am supposed to I don't plug up.

Guest guest Posted January 20, 2009 Report Share Posted January 20, 2009 Blue Flyer, I use a Neti Pot every night about an hour before bed time. It uses a saline solution and really helps. I was told about it years ago from my GP and then others on this board mentioned it too. I found it at CVS. It's not a drug so it's safe..also try the AYR products too. they help keep nasal passages from getting too dried up from the O2. Z fibriotic NSIP/05 Z 64, fibriotic NSIP/o5/PA And “mild” PH/10/07 and Reynaud’s too!! No, NSIP was not self-inflicted…I never smoked!
