A wide variety of remedies for sinus infection have been put forward over the years. Some involve the use of pharmaceutical products and quite harsh drugs. In this bulletin I am only going to be concerned with either easy to obtain herbal remedies or other natural solutions.
Here's a rundown of some natural herbal Remedies for Sinus Infection:
Garlic: this has natural antibiotic properties and is a natural anti-- inflammatory, unfortunately it does have an unpleasant odor but it is possible to buy odorless garlic if you prefer. Garlic can also act as a really effective antioxidant.
Eucalyptus or peppermint extract: when inhaled these can be very useful in clearing your sinus cavities.
Horseradish: this is useful not just as one of the remedies for sinus infection but it is also beneficial in treating common colds and lung congestion. By the way, after you start using horseradish there might be a temporary increase in mucus production, but do not be concerned that this is a sign that your cold is getting worse. Sinupret: this is a supplement which contains several herbs including cowslip and according to Maryland Medical Centre it can boost your immune system and help with clearing out the sinuses. Apple cider vinegar: this contains potassium which assists in the reduction of mucus. A guideline is to drink 1/8 of a cup of Apple cider vinegar with 16 ounces of water for 3 to 5 days. Do not make the embarrassing mistake that I made, when I first bought a bottle of apple cider vinegar -- I thought it was already diluted! My first sip of the neat vinegar nearly knocked me out! Thyme: this herb is known as a drying herb for the whole body.
Some remedies for sinus infection that do not involve taking anything
Steam inhalation: this is assists in thinning the mucus and then it can more easily be naturally expelled through the nose. For small children where there is a possible risk of being burned by the steam it may be better to use a vaporiser with cool water. To help relieve a sinusitis headache you could try adding a few drops of an essential oil such as Eucalyptus or lemon.
Nose rub: first warm-up your hands by rubbing them together. With one palm rub your nose on the tip in a circular motion, let's say 15 to 20 times. Then do another 15 to 20 in the opposite direction.
Neti pot: this method is very popular with some people, the container should be filled with a little bit of salt and warm water. It can also strengthen at the immune function.
Hot compresses: soak a clean cloth in boiling water for several minutes and then attempt to cover your face with the hot cloth, after it has cooled down a bit of course. This will help in relieving any extreme sinus pressure you feel in the face. Another way to heat the cloth would be to put a damp cloth in the microwave for a view seconds.
I hope this piece has given you a few ideas and has shown you that there are plenty of viable alternatives to prescription medication when you are looking for Remedies for Sinus Infection.
