Guest guest Posted February 17, 2011 Report Share Posted February 17, 2011 So I've had a sinus infection for the last week. First time I've had one of these - I guess my immune system is lower with the Lyme. My PCP recommended Africa. For 3-5 days but I'm not sure I see the point as I don't feel contested anymore - I.e. I can breathe through my nose even at night but I have pain in all the sinus areas and lots of green gunk for the last 7 days. Any other options other than the Afrin? Thanks!

Guest guest Posted February 18, 2011 Report Share Posted February 18, 2011 YES, I do have a recommendation! If you don't mind a little intense cleanout of the sinuses, a quick and effective thing it SINU OREGA. It is an oregano oil nose spray that is not as tortuous as it sounds. It relieves swelling, discharges gunk, and kills infection. It can be intense, but it is well worth it. I get mine on Iherb and keep some in the cabinet all the time for emergency illnesses. It also seems to chase off colds. You can also use the GSE nose sprays, which help infection...but not so much relive the swelling and green goop. best of luck, Anne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 21, 2011 Report Share Posted February 21, 2011 Thanks everyone - after 11 days and using the neti pot with an herbal wash the sinus infection. I really appreciate everyone's help and I will order sinu oreg in case there's a next time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
