Sinusitis and its cure- Is it possible? contn...

So we came to know that there is a cure for the disease that comes or forms inside the body, but the ultimate bitter truth is our laziness to follow for the long time. If we are ready to follow the traditional method of healing the disease, then the disease will become ease. If you are ready, then follow this blog.............

There are so many treatment techniques that are adapted for the treatment of sinusitis in Indian traditional medicine. In my experience, i would like to add medicines from Siddha, Ayurveda therapy, Acupuncture, Yoga and Naturopathy techniques. sometimes Homeopathy also gives a dramatic relief from the symptoms
Let us see how these different traditions help in curing the disease.

Acute stage of sinusitis
Signs and symptoms can include: 
Drainage of a thick, yellow or greenish discharge from the nose or down the back of the throat
Nasal obstruction or congestion, causing difficulty breathing through your nose

Aching in your upper jaw and teeth
Reduced sense of smell and taste
Cough, which may be worse at night

Ear pain
Headache
Sore throat
Bad breath (halitosis)

Fever


In this stage, THE TRADITIONAL MEDICINES also help in a dramatic way to relieve all the symptoms
