Nasal irrigation is an excellent home remedy to clear congestion and help relieve sinus pressure<\/a>. Using a neti pot or a nasal rinse squeeze bottle, pour a saline and warm water solution through one nostril, tilting your head to drain the solution through the other side. Repeat this process with the other nostril to loosen and flush out mucus. You may feel the solution run into your throat. If this happens, spit out the mixture and do your best not to swallow it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Make sure to use purified water and saline packets made for nasal irrigation. Home mixtures can result in infection and are best avoided. Contact your allergy or ENT specialist if you\u2019re unsure which supplies to use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
