- Sinusitis is one of the most common ENT problems people face these days. Since sinuses are hollow cavities in the skull, they are lined by mucus and secret fluid when it gets infected. This secretion increases due to allergic reactions and infections caused by bacteria, fungi, and viruses.
Dr Shikha Bani explains at 1:41 that sinusitis symptoms can be relieved using home remedies. Even though medications are available, quick home remedies for sinusitis work well to fight the signs daily.
It is essential to work on these symptoms because sinuses are narrow cavities and can get blocked easily. Due to this blockage, patients will likely have disturbed sleep, cold-like symptoms, and discomfort in breathing. (1:16)
In severe cases, you can see an ENT specialist to get a suitable treatment for your sinus infection. Dr Shikha Bani is a renowned ENT specialist in Noida who is associated with Apollo Hospitals Sector 26, Noida.
She is also available on the Apollo 24|7 portal for online and offline consultations. You either book an appointment with her in person or consult with her in virtual mode.
Quick Fact Check
Q. What are some common symptoms of sinus infection?
A. Since sinusitis affects the nasal cavity, the symptoms are similar to a cold. Below are some common signs of a sinus infection: (1:16)
-Blockages in the nose that leads to difficulty in breathing
-Frequent headache subsides with heaviness in the head
-Pain above cheeks
-Swelling above and below the eyes
-Nasal discharge that could be watery or have a yellowish colour to it
-Tenderness or inflammation around cheeks
Q. What are the most common home remedies for sinusitis?
A. The most common home remedies for sinusitis include steam inhalation (1:41) and nasal douching. The former is a widely used technique which melts the fluid secretion in the sinus cavities and allows it to flow as a nasal discharge. As hot steam passes through the nasal cavity, it relaxes the mucus glands and reduces inflammation in the region. Many people also add Vicks or menthol solutions to ease the pain and relax.
Similarly, nasal douching is one of the best home remedies for sinusitis, and patients will likely recover entirely over time. However, it requires regular practice and dedication to master the technique.
Q. Who is Dr Shikha Bani?
A. Dr Shikha Bani is an ENT specialist in Noida with more than 11 years of experience in the field. She is fluent in English and Hindi, and you can consult with her at your convenience. She is available on Apollo 24|7 portal and Apollo Hospitals Sector-26, Noida, for consultation in both online and offline mode.
Q. What is the educational qualification of Dr Shikha Bani?
A. Dr Shikha Bani has completed her MBBS and MS in ENT surgery. Her vast experience in the field has played an essential role during the COVID crisis and delivered effective treatment to patients. In addition, she also works as a COVID consultant in Apollo Hospitals and gives appropriate therapy to patients.
Q. What is nasal douching?
A. Nasal douching is an ancient technique known as jal neeti or neti pot (2:50). It requires lukewarm water with a pinch of salt to prepare a mildly saline solution. Furthermore, this solution is used for rinsing nasal cavities to relieve them from sinusitis symptoms.
It is a technique in which the patient uses a pot to pour the saline solution into one of the nostrils, and the water is released from the other one. Even though this seems like a complex process, sheer practice and dedication will help ace the technique. (3:17)
Q. Why is nasal douching an effective process?
A. Nasal douching is one of the most effective home remedies for sinusitis because it works on the mucus glands internally. Apart from improving the blood circulation of the region, it also helps in clearing the mucus layer of dirt and deposition. Apart from relieving sinus infections, this technique is also helpful for other respiratory and nasal problems. This is because the significant deposits in the nasal cavity include allergens and passive microorganisms that cause future problems.

Being not commercial like others she is real doctor
Real I noticed that one time, all in her face and the way she speaks, you can see she was born to be a healer and takes her work very seriously.
Saline spray could be safer, but I appreciate your natural remedy knowledge! I also use oregano oil! I put 4 drops in at least 1 teaspoon olive oil! Daily till mucous clear.. not yellow!
How do you use oregano oil? Thank u
Orally
Dear plz share ur symptoms of this sinusitis.. I've got tinnitus along with it.. Severe headache and aches around eyes, and dizziness.. plz confirm if it was the same in ur case n is it normal? Doctors also don't really answer well about my symptoms..
What an effective and easy way, thanks a lot mam. God bless you.😊
Is horseradish still a natural food remedy for nasal congestion? I think I remember my father telling me something about that.
Thank you for sharing your practical expertise with us. 😊 I am a brand new subscriber who often & currently am dealing with sinus issues. 😐
You don’t use tap water in a Neti pot. Correct?? Only bottle water I heard tap can give u a bacterial infection if used
Use packaged saline water or boil the water with salt and then sieve it and let it cool down to room temperature ❤
THANK YOU FOR YOUR HELP
Can we prepare 3 day stock of water and keep it and use twice or thrice a day? Or everyday fresh salt water need to prepare. Thnx for the guidance in this video ma'am
It is better to use fresh water every time
And also it should be warm distilled water with special small pack of salt, you can buy it from the pharmacy
@@Ahmad_Jawaid Thank you
Don't ever use the stocked water it may contain bacteria . Which is such harmful for your brain . Always boil the water and cool it and add salt . And use . Freshly prepared is best
Does this help improving sense of smell?
O Lord thank you so much i did this and felt results instantly I will like and subscribe
What
Are side effects of having a sinus infection
Nose block . Headache . Snoring at night. Difficulty in breathing in cold
It increased my problems manifold.
Means it didn't work?
Mem mere sinus ki problem lagatar badti ja rahi hai, mere ek kaan ka parda fata huva hei jiska operation karana hai kya me jal neti kar sakta hoo ? Aur kya operation karane ke baad bhi jal neti ki ja sakti hai please mem help me
This helps but rogahara oil suppress the sinus effectively.
Sinus due to dust and nose bone bend can we try this?
Thank you!!
Thank you
I have done the same but my one nostril is blocked everytime and both works alternatively. So the water is not coming form another nostril... the blockage is because of the nasal turbinates get swollen or whatever 🙁

@@MsAnonymous0786 you have sinuses infection... that's called sinusitis. Depending upon how much the sinuses are infected, the pain and aches and head heaviness occurs differently.
In my case I'm suffering from chronic sinusitis on maxillary sinus and sphenoid sinuses and aslo having post nasal drip/discharge, getting mood off completely bcs of this and aslo bcs of blockage of nostril not by mucus but by nasal turbinates. These are the symptoms including having cold 12 Months accross and suffering too much when climate season changes , it may be seasonal allergy, other symptoms are throat dizziness and have to be cleared timely and sometimes its very difficult to get rid of mucus from throat area through mouth.
I'm on my medical treatment with medicines of antibiotics and nosal spray that protect against allergy and all...but seems like not affecting much.
Due to this my life quality is degraded and studies are also. Sometimes when I'm feeling active and energetic ( when both the nostrils get unblocked) then I'm a different person and when it effects me I will be different one , it also effectz my decision making and sometimes I can't even believe my self that if any decision I'm making in which mood I am!
It's too problematic but no need to worry...may be in your case it is different.
Go for an ENT doctor 🏥
Thx 😊

Thank you❤
Thank you Doctor
I have sinus problems and anti biotics just give a temporary relief and its starts again in a couple of weeks after i stop taking medication
Ive been dealing with it since 4 years now
And every month i have to eat antibiotics for 4-5 days to stay partially away from this
Its so annoying
Same here.
Using antibiotics and nosal spray
@@shivayrsahu been using antibiotics since 4 years
Its just a temporary relief
It comes back again in a month or so
@@hamzakashor2601bro allergy sinus ka sahi ilaj kya h me ENT doctor ka antibiotic dava khata hu to bahut kamjori hone lagta h man nhi karta dava khane ko dava khate khate aur parsani badh jata h chakkr bhi Ane lagta h kamjori se
@@hamzakashor2601 how are you now?
95-97% of sinus infection are viral so antibiotics won't help
Thank you Mam🙂
Please I can't afford insurance and have sinus infections for months and can't smell or taste anything for months it feels like I have got water up my nose constantly
Last year I had a sinus infection and went to the med stop and got a steroid and antibiotic and if cleared it up fast and the steroid also helped my back pains. It only cost me around 200$. I can't afford insurance either 😢.
Did you do a COVID test?
@@MrT-dn5hm stop with the medical propaganda this is not the place for it.
@@JohnAdams-mu7xd It's not medical propaganda at all. I don't have any agenda. The weird symptoms of not being able to smell or taste things can last a long time. Much longer than most people would think. Can you explain how what I said is propaganda? What is my agenda? Why would I be motivated to spread medical propaganda??
@@MrT-dn5hmI haven’t had any taste of smell for about 15 years. Very occasionally it comes back for a day or two and then gone again. Last time it came back was after I had covid. I was so hopeful it was going to stay, but alas it went again.
How ofen do I need to do the Netti pot?
Twice a day . But always boil the water cool it and use pinch of salt
Thnq ❤
Has anyone tried this ??? Let me know I need help
It's a worst technique. Never ever do this.
It's very helpful, but you have to do under experienced person or you have to take training otherwise it will give you worst experience. It's great technique and it's working iam using this one from past 6 years for chronic synasities.Starting I did my self by watching videos, it's not working properly and I got pain in head and nose. Later I got training in yoga centre now I got much relief compared with antibiotics it's very helpful for me.
Thank you so much
But mam some people says that you cannot do this with blocked nose is that true.... And basically sinusitis is all about blockef nose... My nose is blocked by dirty mucus... Please help me mam..
I have sinusitis. My nose is blocked. Eversince I started using neti pot, my symptoms got better. The mucus is able to drain while I'm using neti pot.
Yes if you have blocked nose and u use neti pot the water will not come other side . But it will reverse I.e if u put water from one nose same nose it will come out . I did septoplasty , turbinate reduction and Ballon sinoplasty under general anathesia and now I am having so much relief than before
Thank u doctor m suffering from nasal polyps since covid can it b cured with regular hal beti or some other precautions and things are required to do
It can't be cured bro . Just for some time you feel relief operation is best solution I think
maine 1 saal pehle ayurvedic oil liya rogahara ka; abhi tak dubara se nahi hua.
Bhai kaha se milega please batado

Ek neti pot aata hai , usko use karne ke liye bataya mam ne . Neti pot me saaf Pani bharna hai. Pani garm karke usko thanda kar lo fir bharna aur usme thoda sendha namak Mila lena hai fir apne ek naak se dalna hai aur dusre naak se nikalna hai. Jab Pani niklega to uske sath me gandgi bhi saaf ho jayegi. Aise din me do baar karna hai.
@@aze_the_lostaur sath me dava bhi continue khana parega kya mujhe dava khane se kamjori hone lagta h bahut power wala antibiotic dava doctor deta h khane ko
Doesn’t work for me. It won’t even come out. First time I did it I damn near drowned my self. 😂😂now it won’t even go through. DamnI thought I had a home remedy 😂😂I’ve been riding around with tissue up my nose fuk it.
It’s how you lean your head and allow warm preboiled water in. Try again. Water will drip out through other nose. Method needs to be correct.
Even I don't get it drain from other nostril some times it goes in head and starts Burning . Even I am afraid still learning it properly
I tried everything only sex helped. I couldn't even sleep it was bad so i used to my advantage and worked overtime, although it was 5am only slept 2 hours😢
If you want even better results 4 grams xylitol, pinch(1/4 teaspoon)salt, pinch(1/4 teaspoon) baking soda, 8 oz water, flush each nostril(4 oz each nostril) 3 times per day.
Mam hindi me hi bta diya kro
