Herbs For Sinusitis

Acute sinusitis usually sets in after having a cold for several days. Nasal discharge becomes yellow or dark green, thick, and perhaps foul-smelling.

Persistent pain is felt high in the cheeks, around and behind the eyes, and in the forehead over the eyes.

The face mat be tender to the touch and it may be painful to bend forward.

There may also be fever from infection.

Herbal Remedies For Sinusitis

ANISE, tea helps break up congestion.

CAT'S CLAW, relieves inflammation, and fights bacterial infection.

ELDERBERRY, helps loosen congestion.

HOREHOUND, tea helps break up congestion.

OSHA, antiviral, antibacterial.

THYME , tea breaks up congestion.

I like to put a bit of peppermint essential oil under the nose and breathe in the vapors. (I apply salve first to protect the sensitive tissues there.)

This really helps relieve congestion and the antiseptic properties are helpful for infection.
