Simple Treatment For Sinusitis

Simple Treatment For Sinusitis

The symptoms of sinus trouble are: pain in the sinuses, sometimes becoming very severe, eyes ache, a watery discharge from the nose in the acute stage. Symptoms are akin to hay fever which is brought on by the same causes.

Accumulations of waste matter in the sinus region are the primary cause. All kinds of infection come only because of waste matter present. No bacteria will ever remain active in your body unless there is something for them to eat and to breathe in. All are scavengers, Nature’s broom. When you are living on natural foods, the waste matter is removed and the trouble is automatically dispelled.

For instant relief, use hot applications, alternating with cold, over the sinus area, and you will be much relieved immediately. Spray the nose with finely strained lemon juice several times daily if there is too much soreness. The lemon juice will destroy the pus in that region.

You can also try the salt rinse which is becoming popular as decongestant and reliever of sinusitis.

To cleanse the heal the nose, make a tea of bayberry bark, use a teaspoon to a cup of boiling water, let it simmer for thirty minutes, strain, when cool, or just warm, snuff it up the nose, getting it up both sides, one side at a time thoroughly; this will cleanse and heal at the same time.
The causes of sinusitis must be removed; bowel eliminations must also be regulated to have three good eliminations a day.

Take a fruit juice diet for four or five days, drinking all the juice you can of oranges, grapefruit, lemon, pineapple, and grape all unsweetened. Do not mix the juices drink one at a time, alternating them.
Then go on a vegetable diet, using all kinds of greens, red cabbage, and eggplant being especially useful as they are very rich in potassium, but use all kinds of vegetables.

Continue the fruit juices but drink them between meals. Never use fruits and vegetable at the same meal.
Beware to use drug store preparations or antiseptics. They are not good in every instance and are only temporary palliatives at best. Often the membranes are weakened by their use and become less resistant to germ infection than they were before. Operations are of no value, of course because this may lead to even more serious infections.
