It must be the fall season that is making my sinus' act up. I am going to give the saline solution a try as well as Tylenol sinus. Thanks for your input. I never had sinus problems,or aches until I started with ibs/colitis. Could also be an age thing,  or just the particles and stuff in the world. Also my Dad was prone to sinus infections so maybe hereditary. Take care of your sinus'. Sue

Hi Kim; maybe I will check out Simply Saline. Do you buy this at the Pharmacy? I went to the Dr. a couple of years ago and he called Rhinitis, and gave my nasal spray. Don't remember the name of it though;it seemed to work. I would rather something natural as there is enough meds in my system. So i will definitely check it out.My symptoms are pain in the front,between my eyes and swollen nasal, with congestion with runny nose. So it could possisbly be allergies. Thanks Sue

I have allergies all year long. I take Clariton, and nasarel. I also use a saline spray before the nasarel, to clean out anything. I also use munix if I get real congested. I can not take sudafed as it makes my heart race.
I recently had a sinus infection and I didn't want to go on antibotics, because of my IBS-D. It took a couple of weeks, but I fought it off. I did saline rinses morning and night with warm water and baking soda. I used a nose bulb(in the baby department), and squirted the warm water into my sinus cavaties,(head bent forward), and then gently blew my nose. It worked.
I have constant riniuitis, so I dealing with sinus issues all the time.
Hope you feel better soon.

Thanks for answering Karen. Does the baking soda/warm water not give you a burning feeling? does it not run down your throat? Or do you have your head leaning way forward? Guess I'm afraid of chocking!  Guess I will give it a try. I did try a claritin today, and felt a little better, but am going to pick up something on Friday for my sinus'. Doesn't having Rhinitis suck! Thanks again. Take care. Sue
