A member asked:
Hanging my head upside down off my bed for 1-2 min relieves my sinus congestion. is this safe to do? as in is it actually doing unseen damage?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not recommended: This may be tolerable by a young individual occasionally but it is not a totally safe long-range remedy. Much safer is to use decongestants and try to treat the sinusitis
