Why does it hurt when water flows through your nose?
In: 232
Neti pot is OK, but instead you can get a nasal irrigation thingy like a giant syringe but with a nice soft rubber tip. Allows you to use gravity to help let the water flow out. Use boiled or distilled water at body temperature, suck some into the syringe thing, bend over the sink a little, shoot water up one nostril, and it falls out the other nostril. Do not forget the water temp, and add a little salt — most kits come with packets of salt to use. If it’s saline solution at your temperature, it doesn’t sting at all.
