I struggles with chronic sinusitis for years before I was finally able to conquer it (I am allergic to penicillin so antibiotics did not help too much either). I know it sounds strange, but if you think about it this makes a lot of sense. First, whatever you do never clean your ears with a Q tip, by removing the way you throw off the natural balance and flow that is required to keep your sinuses infection free. Secondly get SimplySaline (available at CVS and Walgreens) and use it every night before bed, when you brush your teeth, add it to your nightly routine! Now let me explain why this makes sense. Sinusitis is usually caused by elements (often pollen) that get into your sinus's in such high amounts that it sticks to the membrane in the sinus wall. While we are naturally able to withstand some pollen (the very reason whys some people have sinusitus and some people do not), sometimes too much can cause an infection. First, the flow of air into your nose goes into the sinuses, which are pressurized, and the air flow is set up in a perfect motion. This pressure and motion is controlled by the opening you have in your ears, the pressure in your sinuses to properly handle all the extra pollution is then controlled by the ears production of ear was; essentially the wax is supposed to be there! So by cleaning your ears you are throwing off the process and making your sinuses more susceptible to infection. As for the simply saline, the point in the nose where the nostrils meet the sinuses can often get dirty with all the pollution and pollen flowing through your nose. SimplySaline will provide a gentle cleaning of this part of your nose keeping your sinuses clean and working properly. I hope this makes you feel better, I am not a doctor, but this process worked miracles for me (something my doctor could not do)!
