If you are under 18, if symptoms persist for more than 2 weeks, if you experience chest pain, shortness of breath, or a fever over 101.5 degrees Fahrenheit it is particularly important that you contact your healthcare provider.

Using a humidifier, the irrigation method, the washcloth method, and eating spicy foods can help relieve sinus pressure. Afrin should not be used for more than 3 days.

Irrigation Method: Add 3 teaspoons of iodide free salt and 1 teaspoon of baking soda to 1 cup of warm water. Place into bulb syringe and rinse out nasal passages.

Washcloth Method: Place a warm washcloth over your face/sinuses for 2-3 minutes, then switch to a cool washcloth for 30 seconds. Rotate the washcloths 3 times. This is done up to 4 times a day.

When treating cough, cold and allergy symptoms, it is important not to use products with unnecessary active ingredients. For sinus pressure and congestion, try to use products containing only phenylephrine or pseudophedrine(decongestants), unless other symptoms such as pain are present.
