Sinus Congestion
Print this pagePrint this page    Email this pageEmail this page
Congestion occurs when the opening from the nose into the sinus becomes blocked by an infection or nasal allergy. This can result in sinus pain.
Treatment
Drink Up
One of the best treatments for congestion is drinking water. Clear liquids can help your body to expel and move congestion faster, so it's important to keep your body hydrated.
Tips
Clear the Air
The best way to avoid congestion is to avoid dry or smoke-filled environments. Steer clear of second hand smoke and if you smoke, quit. Use a humidifier to help keep the air moist and your sinuses open.
