[–] GenitalHurricane@lemmy.world 10 points 2 years ago (2 children) Here's a safer solution. https://shop.neilmed.com/products/sinus-rinse-kit-with-50-packets I use it fairly regularly because of bad allergies. It basically dissolves the snot.

The pre-measured packets are really convenient though. If you're nose is really blocked it's good to use between 1 and 2 packets for a hypertonic solution. permalink fedilink source parent
