Reviews from recovered people illustrate that Kalanchoe juice for sinusitis should be instilled into the nose three times a day, a couple of drops in each nostril.

The juice of the plant is strong and can cause a burning sensation. In this case, you need to dilute it with a small amount of water.

It is better for children not to bury their nose, but to wipe it from the inside with a cotton swab.

Burnaki

Another name for the plant is camel thorn. It has a number of useful properties, but use it with great caution. Can provoke severe allergies and even anaphylactic shock!

Burnaki for sinusitis (you can see in the photo what they look like) is applied carefully, but at the same time has a powerful bactericidal effect. Consumed internally, used for compresses and inhalations.

For inhalation, you need to take one thorn, remove the top from it and grind the contents. Bring your nose close to the plant and take a deep breath through your nose. After this, the mucus will begin to liquefy and flow out strongly from the nose. This condition can last from two to four days. During this time, the sinuses will be completely cleared.

For washing, a solution is prepared from water with the addition of plant juice and a teaspoon of salt. The procedure should be carried out daily for 14 days.

To strengthen the immune system and fight the virus, it is recommended to prepare a tincture with alcohol.

  • Take a 0.5 liter container;
  • Fill half with grass, fill the rest with alcohol diluted to 40 degrees, or vodka;
  • After two weeks, strain the resulting mixture and add vodka to it in a ratio of 1:2.

This method will restore the body's protective functions and improve immunity.

Essential oils for sinusitis

Treating the disease with essential oils is considered effective. Sea buckthorn and fir oily substances are used, as well as tea tree and black cumin oils.

Oil for sinusitis is gentle, but at the same time effective, as it has a number of useful characteristics.

Fir oil

Fir oil is a good remedy for sinusitis. It has high disinfecting characteristics, has an antimicrobial effect, and accelerates the healing of damaged tissues.

To make drops, you need to add a few drops of an oily substance to boiled water. Inject 3-4 drops into each nostril 2-3 times a day.

Garlic-honey ointment

This recipe is not only effective, but also practical. The prepared ointment is convenient to apply, but it is better to carry out treatment procedures at home, because the composition has a characteristic garlic aroma.

To prepare, you need to take 2 cloves of garlic and squeeze out the juice. Add honey to the squeezed juice in a ratio of 1:2. For example, for half a teaspoon of juice you need to take a teaspoon of honey.

Mix the prepared ingredients until smooth. To ensure that the garlic juice is without pulp, it is better to first pass the garlic through a crusher and then through cheesecloth.

Also, for sinusitis, garlic is placed in the ears. It can be finely chopped and placed in gauze, making a small tampon. Keep in ears for no more than 30 minutes. Garlic-honey ointment will also help relieve constant nasal congestion, but its use is not entirely practical.

How to cure sinusitis with garlic

Food

Many of the products we use as food have a number of beneficial properties. So, effective for combating the manifestations of sinusitis are:

  • Garlic;
  • Bay leaf;
  • Regular boiled egg;
  • Boiled potatoes.

Garlic for sinusitis

The vegetable contains a large amount of phytoncides, so it effectively helps fight inflammation if it has bacterial causes.

Treatment of sinusitis with garlic involves making an ointment and mixture based on it to lubricate the nose.

To prepare a mixture for using nasal tampons, you need to take root vegetables, aloe and honey. You need to grate the garlic and squeeze the juice out of the resulting pulp. Mix it with the same amount of aloe juice and add ¼ part of honey. Dip gauze rolled into a tampon into the resulting mixture and insert it into the nasal passage before going to bed. The next night, it is recommended to use a tampon on the other nostril.

To prepare the mixture, you need to take a whole head of garlic and a tablespoon of butter. The root vegetable needs to be peeled and chopped, and the butter needs to be melted. After this, mix the substances until smooth. Lubricate the nasal passages with the resulting mixture daily.


Garlic has excellent bactericidal properties

Bay leaf

The use of bay leaves for inhalation for sinusitis receives positive reviews and ratings.

Taking a decoction of bay leaves internally has an immunostimulating effect, allowing the body to more effectively fight the disease.

The same decoction can also be used for steam inhalation. Regular use of the procedure will relieve swelling and clear inflamed sinuses. In reviews of the treatment of sinusitis with bay leaves using inhalation, patients note that this is a rather pleasant procedure, since the product itself has an unobtrusive and sophisticated aroma.

Boiled egg

An egg for sinusitis is used as a means to warm the sinuses. However, thermal procedures for this disease are not always necessary or justified. Doctors often argue about the benefits and effectiveness of warming up for certain types of sinusitis, so the procedure must be carried out with caution.

Nevertheless, the treatment of sinusitis with a boiled egg has its place. This technique is suitable for small children and pregnant women, as it has absolutely no harmful effects on the body.

The procedure is carried out as follows:

  • Hard boil an egg;
  • Wrap the warm egg in a cloth;
  • Apply to your sinuses.

It is better to carry out the procedure before bedtime, and the course of warming up should be at least five days.


A boiled egg is used to warm the sinuses

Remember! Heat treatment is prohibited at elevated body temperatures.

Potato

There are two options for using potatoes for treatment:

  1. Using tubers as described in the previous method - about the egg;
  2. Inhalations.

To carry out inhalations for sinusitis, you need to put several tubers in a pan, boil them and breathe over the potatoes. It is believed that its vapor has a beneficial and healing effect on “clogged” sinuses, facilitating breathing and eliminating symptoms of the disease.

Symptoms of sinusitis

The first signs of sinusitis in adults are deterioration of the condition, decreased ability to work, accompanied by nasal discharge, headaches, and pain on palpation of the paranasal area.

In children, symptoms of the disease often appear after suffering from a cold, flu, scarlet fever, or measles against a background of decreased immunity.

Characteristic signs of sinusitis are severe headaches, pain in the forehead, as well as:

  • morning cough with sputum;
  • decreased sense of smell;
  • nasal voice;
  • redness of the eyes.

A characteristic symptom of sinusitis is tinnitus, which occurs due to swelling of the mucous membrane. Sinusitis is not contagious to others and is not transmitted to another person.

Application of clay

When treating sinusitis with clay, it is recommended to use it for applications. To prepare the mixture, you need to take a clay substance, crush it into powder and add water. Stir until it becomes a liquid paste and leave for several hours. When the product “fits,” you should tightly stick it around the upper nasal sinuses and cover it with a warm cloth. Application time is at least two to three hours. After the required time has passed, remove any remaining clay and rinse your face with clean water. It is believed that this method helps fight mucous formations.


Clay-based applications are used to get rid of mucus

Laundry soap

Reviews about the treatment of sinusitis with laundry soap are mostly positive. Most often, an ointment is made based on this product. Fatty acids and animal fat in the soap soften the skin and promote healing of damaged mucous membranes, and alkali removes the rough layer, facilitating the penetration of vitamins and important microelements into damaged tissues. Thus, the balance of the mucous membrane returns to normal, and the disease begins to regress.

To prepare an ointment for sinusitis with laundry soap, you need:

  1. Grate laundry soap on a fine grater;
  2. Add honey, onion juice and vegetable oil to the soap mixture in equal proportions;
  3. Mix everything thoroughly and heat in a water bath.
  4. Dip a tampon into the resulting mixture and insert it into your nose for a few minutes. The procedure is recommended to be carried out every night for three weeks.

There are other formulation options where milk and alcohol are added to the composition.

Traditional methods of treating sinusitis

Let us consider below the most popular means for the effective treatment of sinusitis.

In order to treat sinusitis with propolis, you will need its tincture. You need to prepare two cotton swabs soaked alternately in propolis tincture and sunflower oil. We insert these tampons into the nasal passages for half an hour. This procedure is carried out three times a day. At night, lubricate the mucous membrane with eucalyptus oil. In the morning there should be copious discharge of pus.

The home plant Kalanchoe can also treat sinusitis. To do this, we cut the leaf of the plant very finely and place it in the nose; you can remove it after active sneezing begins. Treatment is carried out in three sessions per day (continue for several days). Cleansing will occur within a few days, but even after that, rinse your nose with saline solution.

A mixture of one hundred milliliters of water and a finely chopped clove of garlic should be infused for one hour. This water should be dripped into the nose while lying down. The procedure is repeated 3-4 times a day.

Sunflower oil, soda and honey

To effectively drain pus, you can try using these particular remedies. Water, soda, honey and sunflower oil make up a mixture in which they must be combined in equal proportions - one tablespoon each. Lubricate the tampon with this ointment and insert it into the nasal passage. After 20 minutes, insert it into the second nasal passage. To get results, you need to carry out several procedures (3-4)

Treatment with butter

A piece of butter one centimeter thick should be placed in the nostril and go to bed like that. The next day, the procedure is repeated with the second nostril.

Treatment of sinusitis at home.

Let's sum it up

Folk remedies for sinusitis and sinusitis contain a huge number of recipes and involve the use of ingredients that are different in nature.

However, for each method there are a number of contraindications that a person may simply not know.


It is advisable to consult a doctor about the use of this or that folk remedy.

Therefore, if you decide to turn to alternative medicine, consult your doctor. And remember: the disease will not go away if it is treated only with laundry soap, boiled egg or celandine. You definitely need drug therapy, selected by a specialist, which will not only relieve the symptoms, but also eliminate the root cause of the disease.

How we cured sinusitis at home (true story)

In the 90s, my daughter developed sinusitis. They admitted me to the hospital. It seems they managed to make punctures six times. Washing, expensive medications. Some cancel, others appoint. A lot of money is wasted, but there is no result.

The daughter was discharged from the hospital with a handful of prescriptions. We go to the pharmacy. The pharmacist, fortunately apparently an experienced one, lists: you can become addicted to this drug from the first spray, this drug will damage your kidneys, it will cause your liver to crack, and so on.

All drugs are expensive. And I was shocked by what I heard. I had to turn to my friends to suggest an effective folk recipe.

Birch tar, honey, Kalanchoe

Birch tar for sinusitis
Birch tar is included in the recipe for sinusitis

Bee honey treats sinusitis
A teaspoon of honey is added to the recipe for sinusitis.


Kalanchoe juice at home for sinusitisKalanchoe juice is included in the recipe for the treatment of sinusitis.
We cured sinusitis according to the recipe of a colleague from work: 5 drops of birch tar (sold in a pharmacy), 1 teaspoon of honey - warmed up, Kalanchoe juice - squeezed through the spade leaf. Mix immediately, otherwise it will evaporate very quickly.

Add 5 drops of sunflower oil to avoid burning the nasal mucosa. Insert turunda soaked in this mixture into the nostrils one by one and lie on the side into which the turunda is inserted into the nostril. The course of treatment is until the result is achieved. So much pus came out that I am still surprised how such a quantity could fit in the maxillary sinuses.
