Nasal washes are solutions used to rinse out your nasal passages and sinuses using a saline(saltwater) mix. I find using these washes beneficial, especially throughout the winter months when we are dealing with dry heat in our homes. These washes moisturize our nasal passages, improving sinus and breathing comfort.
Always use safe water, such as boiled water for 10 minutes, and then cool the water before using.
There are many different brands, with Neil Med being the most advertised brand. Navage Saline Irrigation Starter Kit, Equate Comfort Flow Bottle Nasal Wash System, and Nasalfresh MD Dual Powered Nasal Irrigation System are a few other brands. You can order these on Amazon or purchase them at a local pharmacy.
Do you have any suggestions on nasal washes for our community?
