I use a variant of the neti pot and it's probably the single best thing I've found for my chronic sinus trouble. I have bad seasonal allergies and get
sinus infections at the drop of a hat and the thing I use works wonders. The brand name for it is Nasaline and it basically looks like a bizarre cross
between a syringe and a turkey baster. I call it the skull douche and I honestly swear by it. It comes with little packets of purified salt that you
mix with 8 ounces of warm water, suck it up into the contraption, and then slowly push it through one nostril so it comes out the other one. It takes
some getting used to for sure, but it really is amazing.

Indeed it does. Matter of fact, my allergies are acting up and I'm about to go douche my skull right now for some relief before bed.

Looks crazy but if it works I might have to check this out. I always get real bad sinus infections.

Did anyone watch the related video by Drew from Toothpaste For Dinner comics?

A lot of people ask me what kind of music I like. I love "soul music". My "soul music" isn’t a style, genre or niche. It’s music that is genuine. It’s
a painful lyric, a dirty bassline, it’s a harrowing vocal, it’s feedback, it’s an anthem, it’s a love song, it’s anarchy. I’ve got my personal
favourites but in the end it doesn’t matter who or where it comes from... so long as it’s good and it's real.

The thing about the Neti pot is this... it takes some getting used to, AND you have to make sure you breath through your mouth and don't swallow...
because you don't want the water to come into your mouth. Other than that... it's pretty easy, works great, and the feeling of water sloshing through
your sinuses is kind of interesting.

Grandma Clevo uses one, but I never have. Seems like a near death experience. Too much fate being tested with that item.
Each aspect of the soul has it's own part to play, but the ideal is harmonious agreement with reason and control.

If I had a major case of the death and Santa left one at my house I'd try it.

Not hardly unless you're snorting drano but then you're going to be taking the dirtnap most likely. On another note, a girl I was dating used that
Neti Pot and it worked for her.
