What one do you take? I currently take allergy tablets every day and would love something to just help it
- mensetmanusman 6y agoFluticasone changed my life, didn’t need allergy tablets, as it attacked the source. Any generic brand works, just realize it takes like 10 days to start working, so be patient. Use as little as possible, so I recommend starting with 1 spray a day.
- TooCreative 6y agoWhich symptoms did you have and what is the underlying cause? I have a slight chronic sinusitis and I am currently trying a corticosteroid spray too. Studies seem to say it works against chronic sinusitus. I am not sure how though.
- eth0up 6y agoAnecdotes from my personal peanut gallery: Presumably after undergoing several adversarial attempts at amateur facial reconstruction in my earlier years, I've since endured persistent sinusoidal mysery, most notably an unreasonable susceptibility to colds. I tried many rational things which failed. However, it has been a (probably) irrational concoction that I've settled on, for 5 years now. A squeeze bottle of inert saline solution is thusly squozen and drip-fed a clean, high quality Lugol's solution (liquid iodine). At times, an essential oil is added too, eg peppermint, but rarely. At the risk of excessive iodine intake, my sinuses are now tolerable. Having doubts about this plebeian prescription, I encountered in my cursory research a patent by a prominent pharmaceutical company which consisted of the same recipe, but specifically for the "decolonization" of MRSA from the nasal passages. Considering that many folks now sport MRSA in their nasal passages, perhaps there's something to it. I've yet to settle on a suitable biofilm disruptor, but manuka honey is on my list. If anyone is reckless enough to do the same, please thoroughly research the dangers of excessive iodine first. It is easy to err.
- TooCreative 6y agoAttempts at facial reconstruction? What does this mean?
- eth0up 6y agoSemi involuntary pugilism.
- inakarmacoma 6y agoWhy not say boxing or "fight" ?
- TooCreative 6y agoThere is a certain quality to making the world more poetic. I like it.
- inakarmacoma 6y agoUsername checks out! :)
- stallmanite 6y agoAka punched in the face.
- graeme 6y agoI had a persistent mrsa infection. Manuka honey worked better than prescription topicals. There are studies about the use of it for mrsa. I never tried it deep in the nose though, only lower nostril. So it could still be higher up. But it hasn’t colonized the lower areas for years. Had it for 5+ years before realizing what it was.
- eth0up 6y agoDid you find that a UMF or MGO rating was important and if so, what was it? A lot of the manuka honey I see is quite low, and the few with higher ratings certainly reflect it in the pricing.
- mrep 6y agoI am so trying that. I have to blow my nose quite often everyday and my nasal passages get frequently blocked especially when lying down trying to sleep. Fortunately, mucinex can fix that allowing me to sleep but fixing the source sounds better.
- oxymoran 6y agoTry rinsing daily with a Nasopure. Has worked wonders on my allergies and keeps my nasal passages clear 100% of the time.
- partyboat1586 6y agoI mean the allergy tablets are attacking the source which is the allergic reaction just not very effectively. Fluticasone is very effectively and directly treating the symptom which is inflamed tissue in the nasal passage.
