dear dr.cc

i am having very dry nose and because of that breathing problem. it gets worst in the night.

i was using otrivin nasal drops/spray for the last one and half month. but it made the problem severe.

i stopped it and started applying coconut oil inside the nose every now and then. the problem is reducing slowly. is it ok to apply this? because climate is very hot and we have started using airconditioners all the time. i think that causes the dryness of nose.

pl. suggest some home remedies, otherwise ayurvedic medicines.

thanks in advance

uma.

 

Hi Vaidehi,

Sinus congestion is a disease which can be controlled if u strictly adhere to few habits.
1. Avoid cold drinks and food taken staright from refridgerator.

2. Always wash hair in warm water n dry it immediately

3. In summer make sure ur hair s not sweating much, by frequently untying ur palit n letting hair loose n paliting back. u cant totally let ur hair loose as it ll also increase sweting in scalp

4. I suggest the following mild home remedies as i cant be giving out prescriptions without seeing in person. But am sure these ll work.

Take some camphor and powder it. Warm coconut r gingely oil in a vessel with lid. it shudnt start boiling. before that switch off stove add this powdered camphor n close the lid (its better if the lid closes properly without letting out the camphor vapours) and let it cool. After it has cooled store it in an airtight container. and apply this oil over ur head and neck before going to bath for half an hour. I suggest u apply it as soon as u get up and take bath after finishing ur morning chores.

Take haldi powder n mix it with warm water n apply over haed every evening and wash off before going to bed.

Also suggest putting sambrani(dhoop) to ur hair if u take hair bath.

Try this and get back to me.

Hi Kutty mayil,

Its gud to know ur sister s also a siddha doctor. Which year and from where did she graduate? Are u taking the medicines prescribed by ur sister on a regular basis? If so continue taking thaalisadhi churnam but stop karpoorathi churnam and tablet as they might even dry the nose.

Continue applying coconut oil. If u can get some vetti ver n vilamichu ver from India and put it in ur drinking water and let it soak. jus a lil bit everyday. Drinking taht water ll preserve ur body 's moisture. The used ones along with some fresh ones can be stored in an open box near ac. u sprinkle water on them everyday. They are natural humidifiers and ll humidify the air in that room. U can put a box in every room.
Take more honey with milk r in coffee r with fruits. Try this n get back to me.

Hi Reshmi rn,

Sinusitis can be better controlled wit lifestyle changes. The meds ur husbands taking r all gud n effective. Please ask him to continue them and also start using neerkovai pills. U get this in ayurvedic pharmacies. Its to be externally applied over forehead. It ll give gud relief. Continue using inahlation of vicks. Use lot of balck pepper in ur cooking. And its always better to dry hair after bath n also its better to keep his hair short. Wear ear plugs if going out in cold. If taking cold r refrigerated foods allow it to reach room temp before eating. Try all these with the meds n temme the results
