Effective Natural Remedies for Managing Sinus Polyps

Hydrogen Peroxide
Posted by Kieran (Cookeville, TN, USA) on 03/19/2009

Much better within days using hydrogen peroxide! I have had nasal polyps for 6 years at least. I got on a prescription corticosteroid nasal spray. Very expensive, it worked and I could breathe so well I no longer needed it for a year,then the polyps came back. This time neither that medication nor another brand worked well at all. Since then I have spent literally thousands of dollars, and got used to mouth-breathing, most of the time, year-round - in addition to having the nose at times swollen, face hurting, constant runny nose (delightful on social occasions!) being woken up repeatedly every night to mop at nose, little to no sense of smell, etc. For years I have continued the nasal steroid spray, in addition I have taken a truckload of supplements, tried homeopathic remedies, acupuncture (repeatedly) and Chinese herbs, over-the-counter meds, lymphatic drainage massage (helpful to a degree), drinking gallons of water daily as per Dr. Batmanghelidj, a mini-trampoline (slightly helpful), DHEA (somewhat helpful at 25mg per day for me, a middle-aged male, tended to shrink the polyps slightly), FDA-approved meridian-diagnostic machines, a 4-day water-only fast followed by an elimination diet followed by avoiding all eggs, milk, and cheese for a year or 2 (made no difference) etc...I have been desperate enough to consider surgery, but put off by the astronomical cost and by the tales of pain, misery, brief relief and repeated polyp re-growth of those who pursued that option.

Last week, as a result of one more of my countless internet searches on the subject, I found some interesting references.
Little is known about nasal polyps, but one known fact is that "eosinophilia" is often involved - (I thought Eosinophilia was a city in Pennsylvania), but actually it turns out eosinophils are a type of white blood cell, and at least in many cases of nasal polyps in an immune over-reaction too many eosinophils rush to the sinuses (to fight a real or imaginary invader) and cause chronic inflammation.

I had also seen before the idea mentioned that nasal polyps might be caused from either actual parasites or "ghost parasites".

Last week I found someone on a forum on curezone.com saying they were shrinking their polyps by squirting ordinary drugstore 3% h2o2 up their nostrils twice a day, mixed 50/50 with water I believe, in their opinion killing the parasites.

Then I found another article saying that applying h2o2 to eosinophils caused apoptosis - cell death. I have been merely dipping a cotton swab in straight h202 3 times daily and swabbing the polyps. They stopped tickling and have been shrinking rapidly, my sense of smell is back, I am not filling a trash-can full of tissues, I can breathe a lot better! It costs $1 or two at the dollar store for enough to last for months. Incidentally, an applied kinesiology practitioner told me months ago that I had parasites in the sinuses.

Bloodroot

I'd like to testify on behalf Bloodroot.

I myself have just used the very Black Salve sold by the above mentioned gentleman, who had been jailed, chased out of the country, harassed and kidnapped for making the original Black Salve, so effective, it removes skin cancer in a week.

His name is Greg Caton, his family still operates in Equador, under Alpha Omega Labs.

http://www.altcancer.com/

http://www.naturalnews.com/027750_Greg_Caton_FDA.html

The Black Salve I received from him, removed 5 cancers from my face, out of which one was on the tip of my nose.The salve does not harm the skin in the 12 hours it has to be kept on. It causes rosiness, similar to the effect of dry-brushing.

But it instantly reveals cancer, causing it to become black, as it is literally eating it away, until it becomes a black stub and falls out.

I've done my research before getting Black Salve, and decided to do it after finding the video on Youtube about the lady who had enough of being butchered by doctors, and who's nose cancer healed perfectly, leaving no scar.

That is because by cutting, the cells are mutated. The Black Salve on the other hand, removes the harmful cells in full, leaving the healthy ones untouched, and the body takes care of the healing process, just like it does when you fall and cause damage to your tissues.

Black Salve removed a green pea size of malignant tissue out of my nose, leaving me with a hole. But of course it instantly started to fill up. Right now it is completely filled up, and there still is a flat little scab on the top of my nose, which I'm patiently waiting for to fall.... especially because I haven't been outside for two weeks :)

The important thing is not to remove the scab, but wait for it to fall off.

So on whatever problem you may apply the Black Salve, don't panic when it starts removing malignant tissue, it is the best surgery you can get, and it will heal just like any other wound heals on your body.

My Best to Everyone,

God Bless you People

I have nasal polyps for more than 25 years. I have tried everything and nothing seems to work permanently.

3 operations.... only thing that works for me is prednisolone

Funny enough the doctors will not prescribe for me in the qty is use... 10-20 mg every other day, as they say it is a dangerous drug. I understand so I buy online... but... this constant reference to it being a dangerous drug keeps me alert on using it. Every 2-3 days my nose is blocked despite using the nose spray, tea tree oil, nasal rinsing with iodine or with saline...Chinese Traditional Medication, Ayurvedic, you name it, I tried it.

and then I saw an advertisement of an acupuncture clinic, I called and they confirmed they can treat me.

Tomorrow I go for the 7th session and I have not needed the prednisolone for the past 10 days

Only thing I do is use the cortinsone nasal spray in the evening..

Just wanted to report that this could just be it.... good luck with it..

Please report back how it goes. I only trust people's experience, not articles. Thank you. Be well.

P.S. I do have H.Pylori which is impossible to eradicate, just to reduce its levels. H.Pylori is blamed for everything from heart disease to like you are writing nose polyps.

There used to be an excellent article about the role of H.Pylori, but unfortunately it looks like it has been removed (I bet they were forced to remove it). But I still have several email from people all over the world thanking me for that article. Many were scheduled to stomach ulcer surgeries which they cancelled after reading the article and following its advice.


Dietary Changes

Hi,

I have noticed that my nasal polyps shrink when I have an empty stomach. They almost completely shrink. I believe my body is producing too much mucus when I eat food. Is there any medical literature or anyone who has experienced this?

Thanks,
Jessica

Posted by Mmsg (Somewhere, Europe) on 07/26/2017

Jessica, google "the mucusless diet". Personally I don't think you need to go to such extremes but it might help you zero in on what is causing the problem for YOU. For starters, dairy is mucus forming for some people.


Tea Tree Oil, Omega 3

For Nasal Polyps, Tea Tree oil with the carrier Castor Oil works quite well.

If you want immediate relief try Omega 3 Fatty Acids. My nasal passages were completely closed by polyps to the point that I could only breath thru my mouth. I did some research and read about Omega-3's so I gave it a try. I took about 600 mg of Omega-3 in Fish Oil form and within minutes the swelling shrank enough that I could actually get some air thru my nostrils. Wow I was amazed.

Serrapeptase, Grapefruit Seed Extract
Posted by Sharon (North Wales) on 03/30/2017

Hi Mikes & Catriona

I've found your info very helpful as my condition has worsened over the last 12 weeks. Just started with serrapeptase 5 weeks ago but am curious as to how long it takes before you begin to feel a positive change with the polyps and improved breathing? ( I've had chronic sinus issues/polyps for almost 20 years)

I also take symbicort for asthma which began 12 months before any sinus issues. Not sure now whether to change my prescription.

I've researched and tried so many natural products. At the moment working with serrapeptase, curcumin, quercetin/bromelain/vitamin c and ACV. Also now have the grapefruit seed extract by not really sure how to use this for maximum benefit.

I have also started the ball rolling with ENT and further sinus surgery but am hoping this will not be necessary as in Mikes and Catrionas testimonials.

I am/will be extremely grateful for any feedback.

Lets hope this chronic sinus condition which so many suffer with can be improved or even cured without the need for prescriptive drugs or surgery.

Thank you.

Sharon

@Mel: The systemic enzymes (Nattokinase or Serrapeptase) which Faith recommends can also be used as oral caps (which is the standard method); maybe easier than topical admin but either way will work. Then you could use the exact same method F. Proposed w/ natural antibiotics; additions from her list would include Grapefruitseed Extract, Oregeno Oil, Hydrogen Peroxide, Aloe Vera (inner leaf) gel.

I had my first ever Nasal Polyps a few moths ago and Nebulized Colloidal Silver for a quick end to the problem (Can't recall exactly if I was or was not taking systemic enzymes during that period). Mine were only a few days old as a side effect of detoxification (bad stuff entering the bloodstream); the "few days old" may have been an advantage as the fibrin coat would not have had time to develop.

Cod Liver Oil applied directly over the entire nose will certainly help; you may smell fish for a few hrs but it's worth it, lol.

Do report your results.

Posted by Joe (Wollongong, Nsw Australia) on 05/23/2013

I know why water fasting and other fasting can help sinus conditions and polyps and many other conditions and that is because it clears the lymphatic system. The lymphatic system is important for our immunity and helps in dealing with stress and allergy. If the lymphtic system is clogged with the over consumption of foods and some very challenging foods then your nose and sinus receive more inflammation from the garbage build up. The lymphatic system is like the garbage man that takes away the garbage. Garbage may just turn into polyps. Instead of polluting and causing a worse diseased situation little sacks of garbage called polyps form to protect us.

How do we heal this?

1. Drink your 8 glasses of water per day. Enjoy herbal teas. Maybe goats or almond milk if you must add something. No sugar.
2. Avoid lots of fats. Just a little fat to cook in and satisfy your stomach as this will help stop sugar cravings.
3. Avoid dairy and wheat as much as you can.
4. Thinks about eating lots of greens instead of grains.
5 Get a good night sleep and let your lymph system work when it prefers. It works better as you lay down and rest.
6. Exercise regularly as your lymph needs that help it to do its work. You need to be active for it to circulate.
7. Get good lymphatic massage and remove tension from your lymph restricting chronic tight muscles. Especially those ones cleaning your head and sinuses.
8. Take lymph herbs like fenugreek, bayberry and redroot(not bloodroot), take vitamin c 5000mg spread throughout the day and 2000mg of bioflavanoids. Take quircetin and bromelain. There is a bloodroot nasal drops you can make up as a spray from godshear herbalist UK this will dissolve polyps.
9. Also smaller meals spread throughout the day can be easier on our body. Try taking meals with a good digestive enzyme supplement. You can try taking this supplement between meals also and last thing at night and let it help clear your lymph.
10. This information is like gold. I am sure it will help. It's your time now. Wishing you the best of health.

Eating many small meals is not easy on your body! It creates insulin resistance which is the basis of most disease.

I suffered for many years (10+) with nasal polyps and chronic sinus infections. I had other health issues but this was one that was chronic and annoying!

What helped me the most was

1) going gluten free/dairy free and

2) taking a good non-dairy pro-biotic and NAC 600mg (N-acetyl cysteine).

I haven't had a sinus infection since 2008 and I rarely get sick with colds/flu and I no longer have allergies... I know this may seem extreme but it is worth it. Hope this offers some hope!

Good Luck ~ Carleen

Hi, I have been reading up from this amazing site for quite some time and now will sit and explain my experience. Yes, nasal polyps are the worst. Nuff said on them. On April 13th my girlfriend switched our diet. We have been eating meals from this site, http://www.healwithfood.org/nasalpolyps/. The difference has been unbelievable. The weight loss is incredible to. The polyps in my right nostril have decreased in size by at least 75%. Don't know whats farther up there. But no more bulging sinus on the right side. I now have some air flow thru that side and each day it gets a bit better. Sometimes better than other, but some. Patience being the key as it will take some time, We are trying this diet for 1 month. I have also been putting some castor oil on the bridge of my nose on the outside for the last 3 days. ACV has been a regular in my diet for a long time. What works for 1, might not work for another. Will update along the way. Keep the faith!!!

I am strongly leaning on the diet solution, though I can't wait for it to take effect. I will be getting the operation and then change my diet life style. I watched Dr. Berg's video on youtube on "what causes tumors, polyps, and moles and pimples." Check him out.

Samter's Triad is not a salicylate sensitivity. Doctors used to think it was back in the 1960s, but no longer. Samter's patients react to all NSAIDs (including those that are not salicylates), as well as other substances that selectively inhibit the COX-1 enzyme. Aspirin is acetyl salicylate. We react to the "acetyl" part of this compound, not the salicylate. Dietary salicylates do not inhibit the COX-1 enzyme and experts on the disease do not recommend avoiding salicylates.


Sinus Papilloma

Hi everyone, This is just to let you know that I have found this cream named Cansema Deep Tissue and put it inside my nose on the papilloma. It stang like someone was burning me with acid for about 5 minutes, than subsided. My tumor was as large as a grain of rice. It took 5 applications due to the fact that I (my helping husband) hardly could reach inside, but now thanks to Good God and this cream, it is gone!

Hope this helps somebody!

I've just started using Swedish Bitters and they do seem to give relief although I think I had better results from ground black seed (years ago). I make sauerkraut, have been using kefir for years, make sourdough bread have very little sugar and processed food in my diet.

You are my new God!!! Ten years of these tyrannical polyps, and this sugar free idea is working wonders. It's day five of my new diet, and my snoring has completely stopped. My voice isn't nasal anymore, food tastes better, and I can breathe through my nose for the first time since my op, (five years ago) and every day it's getting better and better. Got the shock of my life when I smelt my shower gel this morning, forgot how amazing the sense of smell is! Literally feel like a superhero walking around. Thank you so much for sharing your findings, you have literally changed my life! - one happy dude!!! :-)


Eliminate Sugar

Hi Brian, I must admit I was a bit sceptical about sugar being the driving force behind my nasal flares, but your logic made sense and as I had tried everything else I decided to give your suggestions a go and wow, I can't believe how wrong I was, I am on my second month of low sugar diet and never in my life do I remember waking up in the middle of night and breathing through my nose, I used to have constant tension in my nasal passage due to inflammation, I have slight dust-mite allergy but the sugar in my diet was fuelling the allergy ten folds, I was bed ridden at least few times a month due to constant runny and itchy nose This was really ruining my career and life so much so that I had discussed with my family to go under knife,

One thing I would like to point out is that I have not completely eliminated all sugar from my diet, I still have my fruits but have eliminated all sugar that I used to add to my tea coffee (at least 4 cups a day), no fizzy drinks for me, no sweets but due to me being gym junkie I need to have protein shakes that do have sugar in them but that does not seem to have created any problems, may be because I burn more than I consume.

What is amazing is that even lowering my sugar intake has given me my life back, I can only see it getting better if I eliminate more sugar.

Other benefits I found by lowering my sugar intake were, my teeth seem to be glossy and whiter, As mentioned earlier that I am a gym junkie, I found that my sweat does not smell at all, I had read somewhere that the body odour is caused by bacteria feeding off sweat and it's their faeces that give out the foul smell, I guess their digestive system does not cope with sugar very well either ;-) (This would be something for people who are fed up with finding a chemical free cure for body odour),

I also find my energy and attention levels are stable (I feel I am able to focus better now, may be because my body does not go through sugar spikes anymore which allows me to stay focused longer).

I hope people find this helpful as I had,

Thanks again, Tanveer

Hi, one of the posts talked about a remedy they are trying but did not leave the name of it. I have had 2 x Fess surgery and am slowly getting rid of sugar. My polyps are huge again on right side of nose with thick toffee like encrusted mucus. I'm currently on Colloidal silver sprays day 2. Also drinking 2 x 10ml daily although the Consultant has given me prednisone steroids as they do help with swelling. Just want something to naturally shrink them and get my life back. Thank you

Barbara Allat,

It may be helpful to alternate days of colloidal silver(CS) nasal application with days of Xlear Nasal Spray(XNS) at maximum dose on label. This can increase the antimicrobial activity and both have antibiofilm activities which can be helpful in long standing infections.

https://www.amazon.co.uk/Xlear-Relief-Sinus-Rescue-Xylitol/dp/B00GLLF1WY/ref=sr_1_2?crid=3HNVHMHPJDPSM&keywords=xlear+nasal+spray+with+xylitol+and+grapefruit+seed&qid=1665546822&qu=eyJxc2MiOiIxLjMwIiwicXNhIjoiMS4yOCIsInFzcCI6IjEuMjkifQ==&sprefix=Xlear+Nasal+Spray,aps,257&sr=8-2

So one day of CS treatment followed by one day of XNS treatment at max dose and continued in that fashion to better fight the infection('s). The oral CS can remain at everyday as you are already doing. How many ppm is your CS?

The XNS contains Grapefruit Seed Extract (GSE) along with Xylitol. Both Xylitol and GSE have antibiofilm effects as does CS and the GSE is a potent antimicrobial as is CS.

Hi everyone,
Well, it has been months now that I have been reading EC and investigating on the internet how to cure my polyps. First of all let me tell you, I have allergic rinhitis, asthma ( take a cortizone inhaler every day), and polyps. The first time the polyps attacked me was ten years ago. I had partial blockage and complete anosmia. The Nose throat, etc specialist gave me a corticoid that did NOTHING at all. That really made me angry because I was breast feeding at the time and was not aware of what was inside the spray. Amyhow, the specialist said I needed SURGERY! Alarmed, I turned to my Homeopath who gave me a treatment that gave me back my sense of smell. I was very happy and forgot about the whole thing...

Last Febuary, after a severe nose cold, the polyps attacked again. This time completly blocked on both sides. It was horrible! I couldn't sleep because everytime I relaxed, I choked for my toungue was sucked my the vacum effect of breathing only through my mouth, for there was absolutly NO air coming in through my nose at all. I suffered enormously, my state of mind deteriorated for not being able to sleep and I became sort of depresed. The GP gave me cortizone spray wich I refused to take. I started to attack with megadoses of vitamin c, ascorbic acid and went o an homepath. The blockage went away after about 10 days.

After that I was breathing again, but still I had the appointment with another spcialist in the uk. I thought the problem was gone, but the moment he saw into may nose he said I had an "enormous" polyp on my left nostril and surgery was needed. Needles to say, I was very disappointed and sad with the news, but still, I was breathing through both my nostrils... A couple of months after that, the polyps came back stronger, bigger more resistant, the day of my birthday and for no apparent reason. Complete blockage again, no sleep, fast deterioration!

Then I started a regime of many things that I investigated and have been working great! First urgent thing was to get rid of the infection and clean the sinuses. How to do that especially if nothing was coming in or out of my nose?

I started taking MEGA doses of ascorbic acid powder, up to "bowel tolerance" (please check http://www.vitamincfoundation.org/).I went up to 40 grams a day! Also, there is a breathing system developed by profesor Buteyko. With one of his exercise I could unblock my nose long enough to risne with salt water four to five times a day. This specific Buteyko exercise consist in blowing the air out of your lungs and gently moving your head until you cant take it anymore, then start breathing takeing short breath, provoking a slight sense of suffocation, to create CO2 wich will open the nose pasagges for a short time, enough to do the salt water rinse. This sounds brutal and it feel even more so, considering that with this illnes we are already suffering from suffocation, but it works! After four days of doing this, the polyps ceased and I could start getting air in through my nose again. This was end of june, scince then I have still batteled with this polyps, even with an homephatic remedy sold on the internet that "declares a battle of sinuses" but that di not work for me. But, following the Buteyko technique, the ascrbic acid protocol and four other important practices that I will describe, I have been able to CONTINUALLY breathe ONLY through my nose since... Breathing ONLY through the nose is one of the BUTEYKO pricipals to avoid overbreathing or hyperventilation.

A recomendation I can give right away and something that I have been practicing since july is, taping the mouth during the night to avoid at all cost snoring and mouth breathing. I know when you have polyps this is torture, but it is an essential practice to start getting better! The more you breathe through the nose, the less blockage you get and the inverse is also true.

I have bought two books of this technique and I have paid an expensive course to learn how to breathe correctly to reverse and STOP my asthma and my rinhitis and to reduce my polyps. I have also started "Autohemotherapy" and oil pulling. "AHT" is a thecnique where you take blood from your own vein and imediatly reinject it intra muscularly, in the arm, leg or buttock. There is a lot on the internet about this, look up DR. Louiz Moura from Brasil on youtube. After I started the breathing exercises and tje autohemotherapy six weeks ago, I have reduced my inhalers to more than half, have had no need for releiver, my postnasal dripping is gone and I dont need to blow my nose but once or twice a day if any. I continue to take 20 grams of ascobic acid daily and also take a b suplement, iron, selenium, zinc, iodine for my thyroid. Chloruro de magnesio salts, 20 grams diluted in 1 liter of water, take a 3 oz. daily. I also do a "Castor oil pack" some days a week. I am feeling great today!

My plans are to reduce my polyps considerably by the end of this year, but so far I have acheived complete unblockage, and I feel that I am actually healling myself. I do Tracendetal Meditation 2 times a day and a 30 minute brisk walk in the park. I haven't taken at any moment ANY allopatic medicaments. I give thanks to God to put this challenge in my life, for I am dedicated to heal myself in a Holistic way and be in better condition than before.

Hello I wanted to share with all those suffering from polyps, sinusitis etc. Like most of you mine is an on going saga of surgery to remove these things, visits to doctors, homoeopaths all types of medical people. This had been part of my life for over 15 years. I hadn't had a sense of smell for about 10 years and always a blocked nose, it just became part of who I am.

This enlightening book showed me that almost all allergies are caused by an underlying problem of sugar. Too much. Candida being an almost certain trigger to allergies. This includes of course polyps which are just an allergic reaction as you all know.

I cut out what the book told me too including all fruits and of course sugar and processed flour items and dairy. The next day I could smell again. Also got new pillows and new mattress with cover and wash these regularly. This and living with floor boards instead of carpet has helped too. I no longer have a chronic sinus problem. I do still have blocked ears, well, blocked ear usually and some other symptoms of allergies. However you all know how depressing it can be to be constantly blocked up, so to not have this problem I have felt much, much better. Although I am a true believer of all these wonderful remedies I also believe that it is more important what don't ingest rather than what you do. That is change the diet, it is the only way to get to the problem's core.

The book that helped me was called: "The Allergy and Asthma Cure" by Fred Pescatore. A real turning point for me in my endless pursuit of feeling 100%. I had never heard of the author or the book until I stumbled upon it on the net.

This site is great BTW I am trying the bi carb / ACV remedy and finding myself getting a bit addicted to the feeling that bi carb gives your mouth after placing a pinch on your tounge and swishing it around your mouth. It feels almost you've just had your teeth cleaned by the dentist. I have to limit it to 2 times a day.

I am a migraine and polyp sufferer and I am currently taking the citric acid 1/4 tsp and baking soda 1/4 tsp formula three times a day just over 1.5 months now and yes it works slow, but it works!!! I have not added the other supplements just the citric acid and baking soda.

As a cautionary note I read that you are not to take this solution with antacids specifically those with aluminum. Also mix first with a small amount of water and then add juice after the solution settles. It causes what looks like carbonation so you get a cup full of fizz if you mix it all together at first. The castor oil tastes terrible and I can tolerate just about anything. I did not try applying it to my stomach but that is the route to go if you decide to do so.

Hi, I just wanted to share this with all the people who have nasal polyps. My husband had a whole bunch of them, and one was like centimeters from protruding from his nostril, I tried EVERYTHING!!! That I could find about polyps, we did, and nothing seemed to help, celendine was the only thing that would help a teeny bit, he could not sleep, eat or focus, it was horrible! Then my mom suggested we try MMS, within a week, he started breathing a bit though his nose, and it kept getting better, we are now on week 5, and he keeps improving everyday, I looked up his nostril the other day, and could not see that one polyp that was so close to protruding! After he takes it for 2 or 3 months, I want to go back and get a scan done and see whats going on! But I wanted to let people know to try this, because I know how terrible and hopeless polyps are! Good luck!

Essiac Tea
Posted by Celteyes (Pearland, Texas) on 10/26/2009

Hi K,

All I can tell you is I brewed the tea with the four separate herbs. It is because I'm a former breast cancer patient and my naturopath says never take the pills, concentrate, or tincture if you have cancer. You have to brew the real herb. So I brew it as per my instructions if you scroll down a little I posted the instructions for someone a few days ago. gave it to my son 2 times daily just because he is asthmatic and always congested. Never dreamed he would sneeze out his polyps! I guess it makes sense if a polyp is a benign tumor and the tea stops the blood supply to a tumor I've been told. My supplier gets the herbs only from farmers that grow it organically. Take care.


Saline Rinse

I have found that if you add to the sea salt a level tea spoon of sodium bicarb, a half tea spoon of sodium carbonate (washing soda) and a dash of borax it is much, much more effective. Bliss in fact!

Daniel, Oats are gluten free anyway. You just need to make sure they are not contaminated with wheat if processed in the same factory as wheat items.

I had a surgery 4 years ago for my sinus problem turns out that I have AERD. This past year I have been mostly on steroid. If I stop taking it, in 2weeks the longest, it comes back. My ENT doctor wants to do another surgery which I was not really recommended by my Japanese doctor (I had my surgery in Japan). So I decided to go completely natural after finding this page!!

But I have a question. If I add ACV to the nasal wash (Distilled water, TTO and saline power from CVS), I sneeze for next 5-10mins like crazy. Does anybody have the same experience?

I have been doing the nasal wash twice a day, drinking ACV+honey+hot water twice a day, rubbing the sinus area with Castor oil+Tea tree oil, and putting the castor oil+tea tree oil to my nostril at night. Since I don't take steroid, my sinus is going worse but it seems better than having nothing. It hasn't been a week yet so I'm hoping that it will get better... A lot of reviews here give me a hope :-)

Does anybody have any recommendation for AERD patients like me?

I would try food grade diatomaceous earth. I have bad allergies and haven't been able to breathe out of my nose forever, but since starting diatomaceous earth a couple weeks ago, I can finally breathe through my nose. It could help you. I started with a tsp. in 8 oz of water a day and still on same dose though I know some go up to a tablespoon a day. Good luck.


Serrapeptase, Grapefruit Seed Extract

Sharon. If you have not considered mold illness, now is the time.

I bought a glass nasal sprayer, the pump type. I put spring water in it with 2 drops of 5% lugols iodine. I spray while inhaling 2x a day to control polyps and they dwindle away.

If it is mold it depletes every good thing in you. Hormones drive wellness. So you might look into progesterone cream pregnenolone and dhea to help the healing. I use 1 dollop of progest real not mexican yam. 3x a week on upper body. 25 mg pregnanolone. And 5 mg of dhea. Same schedule.

I use Ted's remedies to fight it as far as the house and exposures.

He stresses about fungal and mold issues. Sodium Molybdate 1/4 tsp in water in the am. He says to use some powder added shampoo to wash hair. Or add to rinse and do not rinse away.

Some things that I have done to further the things you are doing...to be more effective. Janet


Treat for Low Thyroid
Posted by Daniel (Greater London) on 06/07/2023

Hello

I got the same symptoms chronic sinusitis with nasal polyps and recently had diagnosed with underactive thyroid. I suspected the amalgam fillings and root canal fillings may be the cause of long term sufferings. Now I am in the process of removing them. If not changed, then low body temperature may be the cause due to underactive thyroid.

Fingers crossed


Apple Cider Vinegar

My cold is caused by temperature differences, cooking air and mite. Such a cold is called vasomotic rhinitis. Or idiopathic rhinitis. Then the tips of nerves in your nose react hyperactively to these environments. This reaction has to do with your autonomic nervous system, but I have no knowledge of it and it is not important to go into this message.

Because I had a chronic cold (due to the above environment) this caused nasal polyps.

ACV is temporary relief because it does not remove the above-mentioned substances from the environment. Conclusion: In my case of vasomotiric rhinitis, ACV does not help to remove nose polyps or reduce colds.

There are many people with vasomotor rhinitis who benefit from Capsinol. A spray with red pepper extracts. This is a spray with natural ingredients. It makes the nerve endings less sensitive to substances from the environment and can possible make that the nose will behave normally. I will try this. A lot of strength with your nose problems!


Colloidal Silver

Great site, thanks for all the information. Re nasal polyps, I was told I had them and could get them taken out. Did a bit of research on that and decided, no thank you. I started spraying colloidal silver in each nostril, a few times a day, it took a few months but it really helped. I also added a few drops of tea tree, eucalyptus and or lavender which also helped. Another thing was inclined bed therapy, raising the head of your bed by 6 to 9 inches, I used a few small bricks under each leg of the top of the bed, it helps with circulation, and I can feel my sinuses clearing also.

The name of the disease is AERD or Aspirin Exaspirated Respiratory Disease. I began with symptoms of it when I turned thirty. It is totally miserable.

The same thing happened to me when I moved to Md. I have allergies, nasal polyps, loss of smell that all came out of no where when I moved to Md. I'm still looking for a solution to my loss of smell. Good luck to you!

Thank you for the tip. Rinsing can go either way and has to be with the right ingredients. I would also suggest checking your home and workplace for hidden mold (behind walls, ceilings, crawlspace etc). The mycotoxins emitted are responsible for my autoimmune issues, and I am guessing that breathing them unwittingly for years, may have triggered my polyps.

There's really no need to use apple cider vinegar, as castor oil is a well-known antifungal. It kills candida and other fungal species.

Regarding your first question: by tipping my head forward and then back it seemed it got to all of the sinuses quite well.

As for the second question: the polyps are gone along with their underlying cause (low thyroid), I am cured, I need no remedies for that any more.


Bloodroot

Don't use bloodroot or black salve. DON'T. It is dangerous...


Bloodroot
Posted by Jo (US) on 06/15/2021

Neither of those are dangerous..they are VERY safe if used correctly.


Bloodroot
Posted by Marie (United Kingdom) on 03/07/2014

Hi, I have nasal polyps but one in my right nostril that is so huge, it is embarrassing and horrible to live with. I applied bloodroot salve to it and it seems to have a hole in the centre of it. Does that mean it is working? I'm scared because I don't want to use too much but since there is no info on it, I don't know how much to apply each day with a cotton swab. I don't know what it means that a hole is through it but I want the whole giant thing gone. Can you advise me? I am due for surgery within the next six months or so and frankly, I'd rather not have to go through that. I appreciate your help on this matter. Most Sincerely, Marie

I hope this helps. I saw many specialist they were baffled at what was making me sick, they all had different ideas. It appeared to be a guessing game. I took my CAT scan to noted expert in the sinus field , and I had serious nasal polyps. For 16 months, I was sick my symptoms were flu like symptoms, dizziness, nausea, pressure in my head, teeth sensitivity, and headaches. I had dry, red , light sensitive eyes, and eye pressure along with blurred vision this is from the sinus inflammation putting pressure on the optic nerve, and the dizziness is from the sinus inflammation putting pressure it on the nerves of the ears. Apparently, doctor are not taught this in med school.

I did lots of research, I think perhaps polyps are a fungal infection which has biofilms. First dissolve the biofilm by using serrapeptase and then you dissolve the fungus /polyps. First sterlize water and then let the water cool so you don't kill the powerful enzyme action of serrapeptase. Empty half a capsule of serrapeptase in the neti pot let it dissolve and then using the neti pot rinse out the sinuses. First you hold one nostril shut and breath in the contents of the neti with the other nostril, the water should go to the back of your throat and then spit this out and then alternate to the other nostril do the same thing. Then do it again and hold your head down to get deep into the sinuses and then let all the water drain out. Wait 10 minutes while the serrapeptase dissolves the biofilm. Now rinse sinuses with a mixture of 1 teaspoon of good quality collodial silver, 1/2 drop of tea tree oil and 1/2 drop of peppermint oil in some sterilized water in the neti pot.
