HOW TO RELIEVE YOUR SINUS INFECTION IN 20 SECONDS

WHAT CAUSES NASAL CONGESTION?

The sinus infection and the cold are mostly manifested with stuffy nose. Normally, these health issues aren’t serious i.e. allergies, nasal polyps, (noncancerous growths on the nasal canals or sinuses because of inflammation), chemical exposures, environmental factors and hay fever.

When the membrane in the sinus cavities is inflamed because of irritants, bacteria or viruses, the nasal canals swell which results with obstruction and difficulties while breathing.

Nasal Congestion normally lasts for a week, but this remedy will help you to get rid of it for 20 seconds.

HOW TO CLEAR YOUR SINUSES IN 20 SECONDS

Follow the following steps and you will breathe easily:

  1. Put your tongue on the top of your mouth and apply pressure. Place your thumb between your eyebrows.
  2. Apply pressure with your thumb for 20 seconds. You will feel that your sinuses began to drain.

WHAT IS THE SCIENCE BEHIND THIS?

The vomer bone is positioned through the nasal canals to the mouth. Lisa DeStefano, D.O., an assistant professor at the Michigan State University College of Osteopathic Medicine explains that this action causes the vomer bone to go backwards and forwards. This moving eases the congestion, which eventually enables your sinuses to drain.
