  1. This little remedy helped me in the past – it was actually suggested by my Dentist when I was in great pain and it turned out I had a sinus infection…
    1tsp salt
    1tsp baking soda
    Dissolve above in 1 cup warm water.
    Then comes the "attractive" part 🙂 How does one put this…sniff/snort/inhale/somehow get that liquid up your nose and into your sinuses!
    I encountered IMMEDIATE relief from the pain.
    Get better soon!
