Do's And Don'ts For Sinusitis

DO-Rest: Sleep is essential in strengthening the body in order to fight infection

DO-Water: Drink plenty of water, 8-10 glasses per day - this thins mucous, allowing it to drain easier

DON'T-Smoke: Smoking irritates respiratory tract, paralyzes cilia (hair-like structures that move mucous).

DO-Heat: Warm compresses applied to areas of facial pressure will relieve pain or hot showers and steam may allow for drainage.

DO-Decongestants: Both oral and nasal sprays will increase drainage and provide some relief. Caution on using products for more than 3-5 days - this may cause a rebound effect which means the body will over produce mucous once the product is discontinued.

DON'T-Take Chances: Listen to your doctor; follow the instructions that are given to get the maximum benefits available to you.

DO-Vaporizers: Placing a hot mist vaporizer near your bed at night is very beneficial in thinning out the mucous, thus helping in drainage. Caution should always be taken to ensure that burns do not occur, especially with small children in the household.
