It’s hitting hard for me at the moment and it’s making me miserable. What do you do to combat the torture of allergies?
Small rant
Pollen allergies are why I really dislike Spring and Summer. I’d rather deal with a Winter cold than Spring/Summer allergies.
I always start with nasal irrigation. For most of the year, nasal irrigation has eliminated my medication usage for allergies.
When it’s not enough, I use flonase, but I think my sinuses mainly get irritated with prolonged exposure. Rinsing the pollen out has helped dramatically
Bouncing off this, I highly recommend the Neilmed sinus rinse if you’re in a location where it’s available. I have chronic severe seasonal allergies and I have to use it often. Flush out the allergens with the rinse and then Flonase 20 minutes after is my cocktail, excluding all the drugs anyway. Good luck to you
I agree. Neilmed’s products are great
Yeah, after seeing it mentioned multiple times, I tried Flonase.
Not sure if this breaks Rule 5. If it does, let me know.
I tried it and it worked a little (I’ve never used nasal sprays before)? I know it saids to sniff while spraying, but IDK how hard to do it. How hard to you sniff while doing it?
I just inhale normally when I spray. I can often feel some of it reaching my sinus. Also, my experience with Flonase has been that it needs to be used regularly for a short period to reach peak effectiveness
I hope it gives you the relief that you seek, OP
