I usually get 2 or 3 a year. It starts with a sore throat . The next day I'm coughing have chest congestion and can hardly breathe . If I dont go to a doctor I'm in for three weeks of misery. Anybody got any tricks for not getting them or getting better faster when you do?

Arm and hammer saline rinse a few times a day , will clear you up. But I'm guessing you have sinus issues like me that required surgery to help. I used to get infections that pretty much never went away. I also have bad allergies that dont help either. I still have chronic sinusitis and get sinus headaches and blood clots occasional but it's way better now since the surgery.

Does any thing seem to trigger yours. Seems like everytime I eat a lot of ham like during the holidays I get one. Other times it seems random. When your coughing and congested everyone's gonna think you got covid.

Eat something as spicy hot as you can stand or really stout horseradish. When it starts running real good, get your shopvac and apply ample amount of suction. Adjust the suction by opening and closing your mouth.Not sure how well it works but sounds good in theory.

Adam I hear you on not being able to breathe when you lay down. It used to be terrible for me. At the time I chewed tobacco when I guit several years ago it improved a lot. About the only time I have trouble now is when I get an infection.

suphadrine pe is in the aisle @ walmart with the other sinus cold stuff. I use the equate brand. It will fix you up if you take as directed.

Use a sinus rinse with a saline solution. Use with bottled or distilled water and while in the shower
This is what works for me!
