Sinus Medication Solution

Question by isotope2007: Seniors do you suffer from sinus infections, have you tried this home remedy?
I applied Mentholatum (sp) rub directly to the sinus areas under my eyes and next to my nose. the sinus infection bags were getting unsightly, then applied a hot damp face cloth to my entire face and inhaled the Mentholatum fumes as well. It stings a bit but I could actually see the swelling go down, It works like a charm for me.

Has anyone else ever tried this ? Does it work for you too?
Make sure it doesnt get into your eyes!

I get them so bad at night that I now have to sleep with a knit cap on my head to keep my head from swimming. I miss swimming with my kids because I’m always thinking the water in my ears will make my head swirl. I feel like my head is filled with water and my ears and eyes ache. I was diagnosed with Vertigo but was told there was nothing to cure that. (what is that actually?) Needing HELP!! Thx.
