Strange, I often have this. Feels like it's related to more to smoking, drinking, dust, lack of fresh air.
My doc told me once you're better off rinsing your noise with salt water and then positioning your head in a certain way to let gravity do its thing and it works wonders even without rinsing the nose. Avoid OTC nose sprays at all cost!
Osteopaths gave me nothing but witchcraft over a period of 15 years: "your lower back pain is due to the EM rays coming out of your computer screen. Spend more time outside. And let me work on your energy points. That will be $150 please. Oh and PS - don't even try running, it will destroy you even more".
In the end all it took was advice from a good physio (strengthen your core). And I can now run a half marathon with no problems, despite one leg being 15mm longer than the other which was the reason for my lower back pain. My hips weren't straight, putting stress on my core muscles.
- culebron21 4y agoThis friend of mine studied 8 years at univeristy, and still 15 years into career digs into medical literature and atlases, so he's very rigorous, and having scientific background myself, I can distinguish those who tell myths and fairy tales, like "just breathe fresh air". In my case, he just told me this story in a conversation, without me asking, and then I noticed his explanation was the most convincing: the days I have pain in the neck, coincide with waking up with stuffy nose and a feeling of "inflated" head. So this sort of fits even Popper criterium (make a verifiable prediction).
