Many people suffer from sinus issues every year and they resort to sinus medications right away. There are some natural remedies which can help you in easing your sinus symptoms if you want to avoid sinus medication at the early stages. Here is the list of such remedies.

Flush your nasal passages
If you have sinus problems, it is recommended to use a saline solution daily to clear your nasal passage. It is often the first treatment recommended by the doctors before any sinus medication.

Inhale steam
Inhaling steam can help you a lot in easing your sinus issues as the hot vapor helps to soften the sinuses.

Stay hydrated
If you are well hydrated, your sinus remains moist. Try to drink 8 glasses of water throughout the day for proper hydration.

Make your house allergy-proof
Some of the Allergies can make sinus pain even worse. It is recommended that you make your house clear of any dust mites by installing an air filter system. Try to keep the pets out of the bedroom to help ease the allergies.

Use a humidifier
A humidifier can keep the air moist and in turn, helps you in your sinus issues. Make sure that you use a humidifier during dry months, not when it’s humid. 35-50% humidity is considered well enough for the rooms.

Pressure point activation
Many people find temporary relief when they receive a quick face massage. Applying pressure to the correct points on the face might help you relieve some of the pain.

Consume turmeric and ginger root tea
An old spice used in India and the Middle East, turmeric has been considered very useful in treating sinus symptoms. Not only does it contain the natural anti-inflammatory curcumin but also has antioxidant properties. If you use it in combination with ginger root for your hot tea or hot milk, it would help loosen mucus from clogged nasal passages and alleviate sinus pressure making you feel much better.

Have apple cider vinegar with hot water
Make a combination of two or three tablespoons of raw, unfiltered apple cider vinegar and a cup of hot water or tea and drink it three times a day. It will help you as the vinegar thins mucus and eases the sinus.

Although these remedies are quite helpful, for worsening conditions, we strongly recommend that you meet a registered physician. These remedies cannot replace the sinus medications prescribed by your doctor.
