Diy Nasal Rinse With Syringe. *duh dun dunnn* this became a nice reminder that i should share … Baking soda to help sooth your swollen nasal passages, but it is not necessary.
While it may sound complicated, nasal irrigation is a simple process where you rinse out your sinuses to remove things like allergens, irritants, and dried mucus. Mix together 3 tsp of salt and 1 tsp of baking soda add 1 tsp of this mixture into 1 cup of water and stir until the solids. A lot of people add 1/4 tsp.
Draw the rinse into a clean bulb syringe, then insert the tip of the syringe into your nostrils and carefully spray the solution directly into your nose.
Another option would be to use a nasal bulb syringe with homemade saltwater mixture. Fill a large medical syringe, squeeze bottle, or nasal cleansing pot (such as a neti pot) with the saline solution, insert the tip into your nostril, and squeeze gently. Boil 8 ounces of tap water and once it has cooled to lukewarm, go ahead and do the rinse then. Tilt your head downward over a sink (or in the shower) and rotate to the left.
