There are different degrees of congestion from light to fully blocked. When I was 14 I was 80% congested until i turned 20. I had to have some nose drops or I’d be lightheaded from poor breathing.
What solved it? A trick that an old doctor told
me to do. With one hand hold with thumb on the soft palate and another finger (index or ring) on the forehead where the nose meets the forehead in a grip. Then jiggle the grip. The skull is made out of bones that are not fully connected so a jiggle does move the bones around and releases differential pressure in sinuses. That fixed me
- seer 6y agoMy partner has some sinus congestion issues and we’ e been trying to find a remedy since forever. We want to try this thing but want to make sure we’re trying it correctly. Have you encountered a more thorough explanation of this technique, preferably in a video?
- onemoresoop 6y agoSomethink like this except that it is done with the tongue and a finger: https://invisiverse.wonderhowto.com/how-to/clear-your-stuffy-sinuses-seconds-using-nothing-but-pressure-0160709/ https://invisiverse.wonderhowto.com/how-to/clear-your-stuffy... I need to clarify that i did not have a sinus infection though, i had a persisting rhinitis for which doctors could not provide anything else but prescribe over the nose drops or flonaise
- seer 6y agoThanks for the tip, we’ll try it out. Yeah no doctor managed to find the cause of the inflammation yet, even after years of tests. Every doctor is like “yeah you should be fine” its kind of infuriating.
