A ent doc has found dry crusty mucus all the way behind my nasal wall and got put to be doing neilmed sinus rinses. how many tries will it take to get that stuff out? will exercising before doing it make it come out easier? cuz one nostril is clogged?

Follow your doc's instructions. getting stuff out will depend on how crusty the mucus is . Exercise may or may not help but it is always good to do. If not better in a week or two see your doc again
