A member asked:
Is there anything wrong with me using hypertonic nasal irrigation 2x daily if i get significantly better results than w isotonic?(2 nielmed packs/8oz)
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Maybe: Hypertonic saline is drawing the fluids out of your nose. This is not fixing of the underlying problem and could cause irritation in your nose. It sounds like having somebody figure out the underlying cause would fix your problems better.
