Sinus Buster - Nasal Spray, Allergy .68 Oz

Answer: Because it feels so good when I stop!

I realy can’t tell if this is doing anything good for me. I seem to have some very temporary relief from sinus pressure after using it. I’m beginning to think that a simple saline spray would work just as well and it wouldn’t…uh….hurt. Is this spray good on tacos? In chili? In other orifices other than one’s nose? Does it clean silver? Disable attackers? I think there IS potential here, I just haven’t figured it out yet.

This product may work for people with non-typical congestion or no access to prescriptions, but see a doctor first.

To start with - it’s pepper spray. It’s either going to hurt, or possibly give you some sort of reaction. I will probably continue to use it, considering it cost quite a bit, but I like reasonably spicy food, and this could help you get more of a tolerance.

I’d read about pepper extracts in the hopes of completely clearing congestion from my ears, which have built into infections before. This is after being on non-prescription as well as prescription decongestants, as well as trying the “flood your nose with saline solution” tip that you get at a lot of sources. It works about as well as prescription Nasonex for clearing a plugged nose . . . but the effects don’t last as long.

Essentially, you spray it in your nose, which does sting, and you have to keep it in as long as you can without blowing. The stinging doesn’t make you want to blow your nose, it’s the fact that mucus builds up and feels runny. Once you blow, the sensation and its effects are gone in a few minutes.

————————————-

After writing the first part of this, I gave it 2 stars instead of 1, just to be fair. It *does* make your nose run, and it *does* give you a slight endorphin rush, which could trigger certain types of headaches to ‘loosen up’.

The first part could be accomplished easily enough by going outside for 10 minutes when it’s cold out (something our pediatrician recommended to do with our son when he was younger in lieu of decongestants).

You could also simply eat something exceptionally spicy like Vindaloo or eat a hot pepper. That, truly, would have more predictable results and last longer, as the oils that make your mouth burn longer (that naturally come in the peppers) haven’t been removed.

————————————-

All things equal, if you’re an exception and are desperate to try a fix for a medical condition that conventional methods have failed, certainly try this, but the box says it, and I stand by my statement: SEE A DOCTOR BEFORE USING THIS PRODUCT.
