Documenting strategies to heal my chronic rhinosinusitis
Try to eat foods rich in quercetin and bromelain. Also stinging nettle is quite good for allergies. If that's not enough, intermittent fasting also reduces allergic reactions. Make sure you have histamine related allergies and not non-allergic rhinosinusitis.

Bueno talvez solo tengas que cortar en los carbohidratos y azúcares. Eso produce más inflamación 👍

Cut on carbs to starve bacteria and fungus growth. And make sure to replace your microbiome with healthy bacteria. On the other side, try clove oil inhalations.

Use yoghurts with a high concentration of bacteria. Those from the supermarket are not great probiotics. I recommend you to buy some probiotic pills and prepare your own yogurts at home. You can find many tasty recipes 👍

Good to know! The stinging nettle tea was quite effective for me, but you need to take a good amount of it, and I don't find it often where I live

You don't need a prescription for probiotics, the worst thing it can happen is flatulence and diarrhea if you use a lot of it! I take them to regulate my gut, but lately I found some articles mentioning the sinus microbiome.

I must try indeed! I'm just worried about its antibacterial properties because I've started to add probiotics in my nose with a cotton swab. Do you want to kill them instantly ahah If I see no effects with probiotics I will chew the cloves for sure

Thanks! I never chewed, but I also tried to do nasal irrigations with clove tea and oregano oil, it was not more effective than simply salt.

It's difficult to rest when you have kids 😅 But intermittent fasting is quite effective to have a good night sleep. I can sleep less hours and still feel energetic with CRS (sometimes)

I put them in the tea, do you think they are more effective by chewing?

Fevers usually kill the bacteria in your sinus. But it's shit indeed. Try the keto diet to reduce inflammation and avoid proliferation of bad bacteria.

I have non-allergic rhinosinusitis and I can also get an infection. Gladly I'm on a keto diet, which prevents bacteria from starting an infection. Still a lot of mucus anyway

Have you tried the keto diet to prevent infection? It won't stop your sinus congestion and other symptoms, but at least you won't need antibiotics if the infection gets ugly

Just my hands, but I put some coconut oil because I apply a significant pressure on my head. Also try to find the spots where your mucus is more pronounced. It may take some time to find the right nodes.
