Have you tried nasal sprays?
Potentially better than a chili
Chili is more enjoyable.
For some
Yep, no bueno at the moment. I'm going to try FESS again today, but I've used the decongestant for three days already and can't use it anymore.
Good luck with. Have your tried the bowl of hot water with some Vicks and a towel over your head?
I'll try the bowl of hot water, but am allergic to Vicks! Thanks for the suggestion :)
Oh dang.....even the baby balsam? I think that's low (or free from) camphor.
There's steamer liquids you can get, bit if eucalyptus (if that's okay) and other stuff that helps with congestion.
