Do you suffer from seizures? Sinusitis severe? Although anyone can get it, health experts say that people who have rhinitis are more likely to develop allergies, polyps, asthma, and abnormal nasal structures..
What is sinus?
According to the Mayo Clinic, doctors say the paranasal sinuses are four paired cavities in the head that drain mucus from the nasal passages. Drainage helps keep the nose clean and free of bacteria, however, when blocked sinuses become infected, bacteria grow and cause infection..
The result of the obstruction can be an infection that lasts for weeks and even causes you to stay in bed for a while.
The different types of sinuses are
Bacterial sinusitis
This happens with the sudden onset of a cold, runny nose, stuffy nose, and pain in the head and face. Antibiotics help relieve this disease.
Chronic sinusitis
Often characterized by severe nasal congestion, drainage, facial pain and pressure, blocked ears, and decreased sense of smell for at least 2 months.
Subacute sinusitis
This type of sinus occurs when sinus symptoms do not seem to go away for months.
Recurrent acute sinusitis
This term is used when symptoms return 4 or more times in one year and last less than 2 weeks at a time. Common signs and symptoms for all types of sinus include::
Persistent postnasal drip or nasal mucus
Yellow nasal discharge or stuffy nose
pressure on the facial muscles
The ears are blocked and compressed
Bad breath
Persistent and chronic cough
exhaustion
a rise in temperature;
Anorexia
Feeling dizzy and nauseous
How do you treat sinuses?
There are several ways to treat sinusitis, depending on how severe it is:
Over-the-counter cold and allergy medications
Nasal irrigation with saline solution
Drink hot fluids (sinusitis is a viral infection and fluids help).
Antibiotics
Nasal sprays
Rinse the nose with saline
However, one surefire way to treat sinus permanently is to inhale a very powerful herb with steam – oregano has antibacterial and antioxidant properties..
How does thyme treat sinuses?
Oregano has 42 times more antioxidant capabilities than apples. Using fresh oregano or its oil as an alternative treatment for sinus infection would remove the underlying cause of the condition..
Oregano oil also possesses specific anti-inflammatory properties such as relieving swelling in the nasal cavities and facilitating the free flow of mucus in the nasal passages..
Oregano has been used as an ancient herb in the Mediterranean region for over 2,000 years but is now readily available everywhere..
method
You can use oregano essential oil, put a few drops in boiling water and inhale the steam 2-3 times a day
Or take a fresh stalk of grass and boil it for 2-3 minutes in a pot of water. Put a towel over your head and inhale the vapors for 10 minutes.
Continuous use of either method will open up sinus, chest and lung congestion in no time and give you lasting relief.
