Saline Nasal Irrigation
for Sinusitis
Daily nasal rinsing with isotonic or hypertonic saline solution using a neti pot, squeeze bottle or dedicated irrigation device.
How it works
Mechanical flushing removes mucus, allergens, bacteria and inflammatory mediators from the nasal passages, reduces mucosal oedema and improves mucociliary clearance.
What to watch for
Use sterile, distilled or previously boiled water — tap water can introduce dangerous pathogens. Clean the device thoroughly after each use.
