Sinusitis refers to an inflammation of the mucous membrane lining the

paranasal sinuses. It often follows a common cold, influenza, and other general

infections. Infecting germs sometimes find their way into sinuses or chambers on

either side of the nasal passage, leading to sinus trouble.

blockage of one or both nostrils; headaches and pressure around the head, eyes,

and face. Sinus headaches are usually felt in the forehead and in the face just

below the eyes.The patient may suffer from low grade fever, lack of appetite,

and difficulty in breathing

Sinusitis causes

Inflammation of the sinus passages

oversecretion of mucus by the membranes lining the nose and throat

Home Remedies for Sinusitis

Sinusitis treatment using Mango

The liberal use of mangoes during the season is considered an effective remedy

for prevention and treatment of sinusitis. Mangoes contribute towards formation

of healthy epithelium, thereby preventing frequent attacks of common infections

like sinusitis. This is attributable to a high concentration of vitamin A in the

fruit

Sinusitis treatment using Garlic and Onion

The use of pungent foods like garlic and onion is one of the most effective

remedies for sinus problems. One should begin with small mild doses and increase

them gradually. Beneficial results can also be achieved by adding these herbs in

moderate amounts to regular meals

Sinusitis treatment using Fenugreek

The seeds of fenugreek are another effective remedy for sinusitis. A tea

prepared by boiling one teaspoon of seeds in 250 ml of water till it is reduced

to half, will help the body to produce perspiration, dispel toxicity, and

shorten the period of fever in the acute stage of the disease. Upto four cups

should be taken daily. The quantity should be reduced as the condition improves

Sinusitis treatment using Cumin Seeds

A teaspoon of black cumin seeds tied in a thin cotton cloth can provide relief

when inhaled. The condition can also be relieved by taking a mixture of 100 gm

of roasted and ground cumin seeds and 200 gm of pure honey

Sinusitis treatment using Vegetable Juices

Carrot juice, taken separately or in combination with juices of beet and

cucumber, or with spinach juice, has been found beneficial in the treatment of

sinus trouble. In the case of combined juices, 100 ml each of beet and cucumber

juices, or 200 ml of spinach juice, should be mixed with 300ml of carrot juice

to make 500 ml or half a litre of the mixed juice

Sinusitis treatment using Vitamins A and C

A diet rich in vitamin A is the best insurance against cold and sinus trouble.

Vitamin A is the 'membrane conditioner' and it helps build healthy mucous

membranes in the nose and throat. Some of the valuable sources of this vitamin

are whole milk, curds, egg yolk, pumpkin, carrots, leafy vegetables, tomatoes,

mangoes, and papaya. When the sinus trouble has already developed, relief can be

obtained by taking vitamin A in large therapeutic doses of 25,000 IU per day.

patient should take one gram of this vitamin per day in two therapeutic doses of

500 mg each
