Just a quick note to say hi! Hi Friggy, I had nasal polyps removed a couple of weeks ago and I can't smell. I have not been able to smell for a long time before surgery. Can you please tell me your method of cleaning out your sinus cavities? I would appreciate it very much. Please go into detail if you will. Much Appreciated!! Theresa

Thanks Friggy, I saw the ENT and he put me on prednisone and a antibiotic, ocean saline, 2 x a day, and come back in 3 weeks, Since that time I started blowing out my right nostril large pieces of dark green debris, this has been hapening everyday and now I have this foul smell coming from both nostrils, this awful taste in my mouth and it seem's that the more I do the saline irrigation the smell gets worse, I was embarassed to tell anyone, I am going to try your method tomorrow., and have a appt. to see the ENT, I hope things will get better Thanks so much for the information

Thank you for your posting! I have tried to flush to no avail as you're right...it doesn't get to my sphenoid. I don't have problems with any of the other sinuses. One thing that does help is my inversion table. It seems to help when I'm upside down because the pressure is going a different way for a while. I'm going to check out your method... I'll update this post after I see the ENT on the 8th.
