I tried warm water but got a very bad sinus infection. Out of desperation, I tried alcohol. It worked! Just a little tiny bit in the palm of your hand. It stings for 10-20s but it is WAY better than sneezing all day or feeling the spins from pills. Note this only works if you do it within the first minutes of feeling the attack. Perhaps a few times in a day. Whiskey works the best for me (maybe because of the burnt oak?). Buy one of those mini alcohol bottles with your favorite flavor, keep a paper cloth with it, and be done with the ultra-annoying all-day allergy attacks.
Note that this is COMPLETELY different than snorting alcohol to get drunk. That is dumb. This is an actual medical use. I think the alcohol (a) cleans out the noise (b) closes up the open mucus membranes and (c) halts the exploding cells due to the histamines (hence the itchiness).
Have you tried snorting alcohol to stop allergy attack?
Huh? OUCH!! Glad it worked, otherwise I can't see how it would be worth the pain...but as long a you're feeling better...interesting, interesting
Reply:Yup been there done that. I used Jim Bean and dont have the sting. Home rememdies I love em.
Reply:The alcohol is probably working in the same way warm water and salt work, only it's not as effective.
You can buy saline nose spray at the store. (NEVER buy regular nose spray because it's habit-forming within three days.) Or, if you feel an attack coming on and have none, mix a pinch of salt with warm water and inhale it.
The salt works on mucus the same way it works on a snail. It dissolves it.
I must say, I've had sinus problems all my life, have seen many allergists, gone through all kinds of treatments (including weekly shots), but I've never heard of inhaling alcohol....Now drinking it to forget about how miserable your allergies are making your feel....That's another story!
Reply:Hmmmm.
Reply:What kind of alcohol are you using? If you are using rubbing alcohol it could be lethal. Try saline (salt water) people have been using it for centuries to help clear the sinuses.
Reply:First off, I have to ask if you are really serious abt this one? If you are, this suggestion is not too wise. Actually it could injure the mucus membranes of your nose. If this truly was a curative for allergy symptoms (ie: histamine reactions) don't you think that it would be used in modern medical/allergy practices? Please don't advise others to use this method unless you are a medical (licensed professional). However, if it works for you personally, and you have no problem with it...good luck.
Reply:Interesting never heard of this !!!
Reply:NO! What the hell is wrong with you?? How about you go to walgreens and grab some benadryl!! Better yet, try zyrtec. It works EXTREMELY well.
