I get relief from the Netti Pot Sinus Rinse Squeeze bottle. I find it easier than the Pot. I keep one in the shower and use it after things steam up. I also use it in the morning. I use Flonase twice a day after the rinse. When things are really stuffy, I also use Mucinex D to thin the mucous and it has a expectorant to get rid of it along with a decongestant. I also try to drink more water to help the thinning process.

I have to do all of these at the same time. It's the combo that seems to clear things up.

I hope you find relief asap.
