Guest guest Posted November 5, 2005 Report Share Posted November 5, 2005 Could be a fungal infection. Been exposed to any black mold (or other color) lately? Blowing real hard can force infectious material back up into the depths of your sinuses...so it's better to avoid blowing real hard if you can. Some people like a neti pot, but I ended up with a burst eardrum the first time I tried that. I'm sure I did it wrong! There is a nasal spray available now made from olive leaf extract. I think the brand is Seagate. It's antifungal. A couple of weekends ago, I spent several hours in a wooded area with a creek. I figure it was leaf mold that got me. I had a sinus infection for a couple of days. If I money weren't so tight, I would have tried the Seagate spray. Instead, I upped the cod liver oil dosage and ate chicken soup and spicy food that induced free drainage. Gargled with salt water for the sore throat. Had some Throat Coat tea. Used lots of tissues to catch the nasal drips. I did take a dose of children's antihistamine/decongestant a couple of times and a painkiller to get to sleep. > > My sinuses are plugged up sort of like a sinus infection(I've only had one before. Sinus is plugged up and have to blow stuff out except after eating meals and drinking kombucha. Now I know docs would say it's bacterial but I'm wondering if this can be some sort of detox reaction going on? Been eating NT way now for almost 6 months. > > Phil > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 7, 2005 Report Share Posted November 7, 2005 Thanks for ideas. It did clear after I consumed more chicken broth, CLO and kombucha. I think I had a bad batch of fermented ginger(mold).I seem to be having some trouble recently making any feremented veggies.Quite frustrating! Phil Re: Plugged Sinuses Could be a fungal infection.
