Left sinus always half congested?

The left side is always partially clogged, not enough to wake me from sleep or anything but i get a bit of anxiety from it (because i can't take a full breath). (never drips just stagnate congestion)

I take sinutab (regular strength) regularly which helps but i guess that hardens it more versus removing it. It helps but it may be more mental than thing.

I don't know what the long term effects are of taking sinutab as well. I'm on no medications.

It happens everywhere..so its not a only at my house or only outside thing.

Anything i can do to clear that baby up...or what might be causing it?

thank you..

    i used to suffer a lot from this when i was younger, in my case i think it was linked to depression. sinutab never helped me at all.

    what i do now if i get blocked is put a little bit of Vick's vaporub (eucalyptus petroleum jelly) into the bottom of my nostril.

    so long as you only put a little bit - (and don't put it high up into your nose as it's quite strong), it works like a charm and you will breathe easily in a matter of minutes.

    not sure if Vick's vaporub is available where you live, but your chemist should be able to provide you with something of this nature.

    eucalyptus comes from Australian gum trees. it is a wonderful thing that has helped me greatly with this problem. i feel for you, i know how uncomfortable it is to not be able to breath properly!

    it's horrible and you can't sleep properly.

    i really do hope this helps.
