Guest guest Posted December 22, 2009 Report Share Posted December 22, 2009 I too live in AK (going on 18 years now) and what works for most people here is to irrigate the sinuses frequently with a netti pot or something similar (I use a big syringe that blocks the nostril on one side and push gently (slowly). I used a product called ClearZ that was a nasal spray that was used several times a day. It worked very well,the drawback is that it can be expensive over time. The Netti is inexpensive an economical, you can make your own solution with baking soda, salt and warm water. Then Netti takes some practice at first to remember to breath ) It's interesting that I personally have had less sinus trouble since living here than any where else, but some years they are not cooperative )Very cold air and air conditioning give me headaches and irrigation helps surprisingly quickly. I hope you get the relief you need. Alaska is no fun if you are in pain. ) Mary , " tarabrightstar " <tarabrightstar wrote: > > Hi I am new to the group. > I am living in Alaska the past two years and in the winter have developed chronic sinus problems.
