Sodium chloride nasal for Nasal Congestion "My ENT doctor recommended this product. It works wonders. It stops my nose bleeds and my congestion. I’ve been on many allergy medications for years, nothing has helped until I started using Ary nasal gel, and I am pleased with the results."

For Nasal Congestion "Had surgery because of nasal polyps and was recommended to use saline nasal rinse. The 1st week of 2, I was blowing out mucus, but 1 day I went to do a rinse while my nose was stuffed up and water wouldn't come out of the left nostril. All of a sudden, my eardrum popped or felt like it pushed out during the rinse, a headache followed. It is going on 5 days, and every morning I wake up with a headache. Sometimes the pain is in my cheek area, sometimes my eye socket, and the top and back of my neck. When it's sunny outside, it hurts my eyes, and I also notice when I bend down, it feels like blood is rushing to my head, almost like a throbbing pain. Aleve helps, but the headache comes back. I decided to look online to see if anyone else was having these side effects, glad to know I'm not the only 1. I never had a headache that lasted this long, and I am a bit worried now :/"

Sodium chloride nasal for Nasal Congestion "I sprayed some of this in my nose, and my nose instantly started swelling up, swelling up. I read the ingredients, and it's even got alcohol. I pulled out a NeilMed that's just saline and water, put it in the Ayr sprayer, and immediately my sinuses started clearing up. I will never use AYR again. Also, it seems to leave some sort of a nasty residue in the back of your throat. I'm not sure what's happening there."

Sodium chloride nasal for Nasal Congestion "I was using regular saline every night for dry sinuses, then my doctor recommended using Ayr gel because it was gentler and lasted longer than saline, but now I have a lingering smell of chemicals that I can’t get rid of. Hope it is not permanent. I recommend regular saline that I used for years. Besides, both work the same, Ayr did not work any better."

Sodium chloride nasal for Nasal Congestion "Makes me sneeze every time, and is scented, which is irritating and may even be the cause of the sneezing. Despite that, I persist in its use as its moisturizing gel properties are entirely effective."
