Sinus issues unbearable

Okay so sinus problems run in the family only I've never gotten them till about a year ago. It causes me to sneeze hard like 10x in a row and then once my nose is stuffed I'm sneezing constantly till bed that night. Most if the time it happens in the afternoon but I got it bad this morning. At one point or another it's made it very difficult to drive even. It makes my eyes red and hurt like I'm sick or something.

My dad lost his hearing do to it. Anyone got any medicines that work well that I can tell me doctor about and maybe start there?

Oh and I've tried every nose spray out there and nothing works at all. Like it may even make it worse.

Appreciate any help guys.

Claritin 24 hour- the shit you have to show your id for.

A lot of people swear by the neti pot too- I have had my nose broken probably half a dozen times and collapsed my septum due to drug use so I'm too scared, but if your nose is in good shape I would try the neti pot first and claritin second.
 
The above suggestions are about as good as you’re guna get. Have you ever gotten an allergy panel? It may absolutely suck but atleast you’d know.

Bronkaid. Aside from the par burning/stimulant properties, it's made to prevent asthma. But you'll notice you can breathe so much better on it. But once it wears off you'll be all stuffed up again.

This is temporary solution tho, you dont wanna abuse ephedrine forever.
 
Sounds like allergies i have sinus issues an it will feel like your heads going to explode light hurts your eyes it brings on worst migraines but if your sneezing its probably allergies claritin is prob the best answer bronkaid makes me breath better but always have a runny nose if I use it for its intended use

I used Claritin but didn't have to show my ID. I'll talk to the pharmacist about it.
Last time I used Claritin and another one called Zyrtec? Not sure, didn't do a damn thing.
I've broken my nose 3x and the last one was bad. It was all fucked up. You saw my nose...can't miss it. Lol
Also done the Netty pot and hate it. Don't work for lone.

So Bronkaid is ephedrine?

I'll try those. Worth a shot. I'll do the Claritin again and the Bronkaid and see what I get. Must have spent $100 on nose sprays that people swore worked.

Talk to a doc about the possibility of surgery if nothing else. If your sinuses are jacked it is not helping your situation. I broke mine in hs and should’ve had my septum fixed.

Damn. I wanted to avoid that. Do you think it could be just sinuses since I only recently started having these issues?

Bronkaid and claritin you show your id for both have psuedoephedrine. The clariten you can just grab is worthless.

The stuff in bronkaid that helps is the Guaifenesin there might be something else that has just that if u don't want the ephedrine with it

Zyrtec and bronkaid is all I use and we have really bad allergies around here. If that doesn't stop it an Allergy panel is recommended. Who knows what you're allergic to?
 
I have sinus issues as well. Last ct showed one side 100% blocked with polyps, the other 95%.
The surgery to fix it is about 8 grand without surgery. They go up and basically roto-rooter/cut out all the growths, use cocaine to constrict the blood vessels, then pack with gauze. It's outpatient and they remove the gauze a week later. If you've met your deductibles you've got it made.
Being on test wasn't an issue when I was going to get it done, however; I changed jobs before the surgery and wasn't able to get it done.

A chick I dated had to have it done twice before it fixed it

Think I'll do this. Get an allergy test done and try some more drugs. Lol

My wife has severe allergies, she’s tried a lot of OTC meds. Cetirizine hasn’t been very helpful withoit the drowsy feeling. It does take 2-3 days to build up and you basically need to run it for an extended period of time. I’m my wife’s case that’s until allergy season is over (we live in the South).

Aside for that, you really should go to an ENT.
