Navage (saline nasal irrigation)

Jus saw the commercial again.

Yes, you are the only one.

Haven’t seen the ad, thank goodness. I make my own saline solution; a small amount of warm water, melt in a little bit of salt. Place in my clean palm - sniff up one nostril then the other. Very clean breath afterwards. I don’t find it gross.

:coolsmiley:

No you are not. It's even worse than Mr Mucus commercials for Mucinex. :D At least he's "cute".

I think Dew was talking about one of those snot pots where it flows up your nose and comes back out and you can view the contents...………. and EWWWW...no. YuckO….gross. barf. You aren't the only one Dew.

I have been using saline nose drops during this confinement and I have had fewer sinus headaches.

OK, that one is gross.

U must be completely bored. Does a thread have to be started for every topic ?

Yep. Got one.

Nope. Nope. :ho:

HA! I can remember when I was a kid my Dad was aghast at bra commercials on TV where they showed a real woman modeling a bra that looked like a piece of armor. Times have changed...

It is a much healthier way of treating nasal congestion.... whether from allergies, a cold, dryness.....than taking medication. I think it is a good health education advertisement.

Some years ago I had problems with nasal congestion and headaches. I bought a system made by Water Pik, I think, that gently squirted Lukewarm salt water up my nose in little spurts. So much better than a Neti pot! I used it every night for about a year, leaning over the sink with the water running out of my mouth. I know it sounds nasty, but it was so soothing. I could feel the pain disappearing as it squirted. Using it felt great, and I felt and slept much better afterwards, too. Great for a sore throat, too, used through the nose, as it reaches areas gargling doesn’t easily reach. I don’t use it now as I no longer need it.
