When i mentioned inhalations, i meant putting hot steamy water with salt in it in a bowl, towel over the head and breathing in, does wonders for the skin on the face too, doctor told me to do these, i have been on an aqueous spray for allergies permanently, they are the type that are supposed to be ok, i know using sprays to clear the nose for longer than a week are a big NO NO, i do not have a blocked nose at all, today i feel a much better not such a sore throat or ear, maybe the inhalations are working and the allergy pill after all, fingers crossed, i think i need to invest in a neti pot though as you all suggested. thanks again everyone.
