I bought a sinus rinse thing which helps a lot, it wasn't pretty what came out after the first time I used it. There must be a reason or a cure for it as I can't keep taking decongestants. I got antibiotics one time and it cleared up a lot. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Doctors won't give me antibiotics for sinuses, they just have me a nasal spray and it really helped a lot I'm not sure if it's a steroid one 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It was weekend and no bosses in, the first aid box was in a locked office so we had bust the door in, Melvin's getting a bit screamy by now lol. We got the eye bath out, filled it with eyewash, matey put it down to screw the cap back on the bottle and Melvin picks it up and necks it Was about 5 minutes before we stop laughing and sorted him out lol Cheers, D. 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PLEDGEY 496 Posted August 17, 2020 Report Share Posted August 17, 2020 My right ear was completely blocked up. Dr wouldn't syringe it but gave me f****n' tablets....waste of time, so I did this. Get a 60ml syringe from Mole Valley Farmers. Fill the sink with warm water, suck up warm water with syringe, spray warm water into ear, keep doing it until you get ear wax coming out. It worked a treat, I did the left ear as well and got wax out of there also. It was bliss, I could hear again and didn't feel like I was dizzy and gonna' fall over.
