Rhino-horn!!



Not like this, no..



No, not the animal rhino, but a plastic gizmo you use to rinse your nose with!
Yeah, ugh, I'm going to talk about slime and gore now, have to weigh up slightly for all the kitchen-building blogging.

Not very elegant, but it works!!



This has become my new best friend, according to an ear-nose-throat specialist I was at previously.
I'm struggling because of a blocked and runny nose, and have a number of polyps that clog my sinuses. This is some weird growths on the mucous membranes inside the sinuses, the scholars do not really know why it occurs, but they clog up the sinuses and make more mucus. Last resort is surgery, which I would prefer to avoid. So then I received a large regime with a whole shopping list of things I'm going to stuff up my nose. I am not particularly fond of the nasal spray, or just to blow my nose (all the mucus come just further up the nose and makes me clogged up, this apparently due to the polyps ..), so all this is completely new and unfamiliar (disgusting). First it was cortisone (pills) and nasal spray with cortisone. Since I got the nasal spray with sesame oil (?!) And some nasty drops to drip in my nose while I'm lieing, swinging my head back. And added to this I therefore rinse my nose several times a day with warm salt water by means of the nose-horn.

This is a really nice thing that actually help stuffy noses! It flushes in and out of the nose, and the salt water loosens up all the clogs. Just look forward to seeing all the weird things flowing out of your nose! Finally you can get out the lego blocks and peas you stuffed in there when you were a kid! I have heard from several directions (both physicians and the more alternative crowd) that this helps against colds and polyps, so remember putting in time to rinse your nose!

Good luck, and have an airy and clean nose!
