Neti Pots
How great are neti pots? How often is it safe to use them? I want to use it all the time. It's like an orgasm inside my nose.

Read this post here (responding to a post about seasonal allergies): http://www.ronfez.net/forums/showpos...77&postcount=5 And, yeah, he likes the photos. (I can't get over the fact that a neti pot has a narrow spout, so I use Simply Saline brand saline nasal spray myself. Works the same way.) |

What Bazile said. :-) Thanks for keeping an eye on the forum while I was away!

Is it safe to use it every day Doc?
Is there any danger in using it too much? I have to know! |
I get sinus infections every so often. But my nose isn't stuffed, it runs. Can I use it for that?

there's some risk of aspirating salt water with these things (getting the fluid into your lungs because you're uncoordinated) but even then inhaling a little salt solution is easily dealt with by the body (since mucus is just thickened salt-water in the end anyway). there are people who use these things every day; just make sure the salt solution you use is properly made (or a commercial variety)...if it's the right concentration there's very little downside to using it every day. your pal, steve I collect awful neti pot photos...here's a new one: http://www.lolotov.com/wp-content/up.../neti-pot3.jpg though this one will always remain my favorite, for some reason: http://www.christinas-home-remedies....irrigation.gif |
Thanks Doc!
The chicks in your pics are hideous, the one in my avatar is adorable. I'm going to marry her and we'll neti each other every night. |

What is this phenomenon?
Where you flushed your sinuses two days ago for the first time and now it feels like there's a tennis ball lodged between your eyes from all the congestion? |

Use it in good health brother. |
Dear Doc. Steve .com,
Is it OK if my Mom says that my Uncle Tommy uses the Neti Pot to much? She says that Uncle Tommy is to "Touchy Feely" I think that I just can't talk about it to much. That's all. Is it OK to touch myself while using the Neti Poty? Signed, Rube |
