Sinusitis prevention: Absolutely, the best prevention for sinus infection is to irrigate your nose with saline or salt water. There are a lot of saline preparations on the market, but the best is a squeeze bottle. Beyond that, it depends on the underlying cause of the sinus infection. For example, if you have allergies, controlling your allergies can help prevent. If you have a deviated septum, that could help, too.
