Nasal irrigation is rinsing your nasal cavities by irrigating them with saline solution through the nostrils. It can help relieve upper respiratory symptoms, allergies, nasal problems, and sinus infections.
Saline helps thin the mucus that’s making you stuffy and flushes it out of your nose. You can make your own saline rinse using the powder that comes with your nasal irrigation system. Or, you can make it from scratch using water, salt and baking soda.
Point it away from the center of your nose, toward your ear, ensuring the spray reaches the back of your nose and less medicine ends up on your septum (the tissue separating the two sides of your nose), which can be damaging.
