Medical Forum / Diseases and Disorders / Sinusitis / May 2005Nasal rinses
Is it normal, after using a nasal rinse, in this case Hydra Sense Gentle Mist, to have some blood in the discharge? Not a lot, and mostly pale, not bright red. Shirley, I had blood coming out with Nasacort. That was after a sinus infection. Most of the saline rinses seem to give me a burning sensation. I am okay useing Simply Saline rinse. It has purified water and 0.9% sodium chloride. It is very gentle and I can use it in the morning and evening. If I just have a stuffy nose in the morning and it feels dry I use it for a day. I was useing it all winter as my house is so dry. shirley > Shirley, I had blood coming out with Nasacort. That was after a sinus > infection.

Actually Simple Saline is therapeutic if you are having nose bleeding due to dryness, but you still need to find out why the bleeding. Nine times out of 10 it is just the dryness or the cortisone spray, but there is another one in 10. Simple saline won't make the bleeding worse and is OK to use.

Getting blood back when you blow or rinse is not normal and indicates something needs treatment. > On 4/28/05 8:07 PM, in article > Exhce.13678$gA5.727451@news20.bellglobal.com, [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] > Getting blood back when you blow or rinse is not normal and indicates > something needs treatment. Thanks for your reply. I had a severe sinus infection that lasted for months, and that gave me a lot of bloody mucous. I had developed nasal ulcers and sores inside my nose that scabbed over and bled. I'm wondering if it's just still raw inside and that's why I bleed? It's not a lot and not every day. Seems like when I use a rinse that I get some faint blood. My last sinus x-ray showed a retention cyst, but I was told not to worry about it. Could that cause the bleed? Or, do allergies sometimes cause it? I appreciate your responses to myself, and all others that inquire. It's great to have someone like you that is so knowing and cares enough to respond.

Try moisturizing gel. Most are good. The advantage of Breathe.ease XL Nasal Gel (my Hydro Med Product) is that the tip slides into the soft part of the nose so there is no waste and the gel goes where its needed. > On 4/29/05 1:43 PM, in article > D%wce.14035$gA5.801686@news20.bellglobal.com, [quoted text clipped - 16 lines] > XL Nasal Gel (my Hydro Med Product) is that the tip slides into the soft > part of the nose so there is no waste and the gel goes where its needed. Thanks, Dr. Grossan, I will carry on with the saline rinse, then, and also take a look at your site and your products. I think I do blow too hard, trying to get the mucous out. Would that rupture small capillaries & cause bleeds? The bleeding is never enough to even run out, just enough to panic me, after going through that bad sinus infection. Another thin I wonder about is the awful drainage in the mornings. Rather metallic tasting and bubbly, often very white, then an hour or so later I cough up what appears to be clear with brown yuck in it. Any idea if that could be from drainage occurring overnight? Do you ship to Canada, should I decide to order from you?

Yes, Hydro Med at www.hydromedonline.com ships to Canada. Suggest warm compresses to the sinus area to get good blood flowing into the area. > On 4/30/05 5:05 PM, in article > 03Vce.15803$gA5.975854@news20.bellglobal.com, [quoted text clipped - 48 lines] > the > area. Thanks for your quick reply. I was just checking your site online when I discovered this email. I've been told by a couple of doctors that the nasal membranes are very thin. Any chance they'll thicken up? I had been exposed to heavy metals from a neighbour's burning of treated woods that infiltrated our home over the past 3 years, and began experiencing sinus problems and infections. We have been away from our home for about 6 months and are headed to court on Tuesday for an injunction to stop him from burning anything from now on. We will be having our home cleaned thoroughly by professionals, painted, and new carpeting installed, and the air tested again before we move back in. It has been quite a struggle and I'm hoping that all these problems will ease up once the air is safe to breathe again. <snip> "Murray Grossan" <hydromed@adelphia.net> wrote>> > Of course blowing too hard can cause bleeding, but what I think I am > hearing [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > the > area. Question: When cilia aren't doing their job, do they ever heal? Do some people get to a point where the cilia are just "dead" (for lack of a better term) and they have to replace the cilia action with rinsing? Or, can gentle rinsing and other ENT recommended treatments eventually allow cilia to recover?

Generally slow cilia return to normal function. |
