Most sinus problems are troublesome, not life-threatening.
Even your MD is more "alternative" than you think.
Even your family medical doctor (MD) wants you to try alternatives for your sinus problems, first. Family Practice Notebook (FPN) is an authoritative online reference trusted by clinicians worldwide. Started in 1995, its content is updated monthly with systematic literature reviews. In other words, if it’s “standard of care, it’s in there.”
In the topic page for Acute Sinusitis Management, FPN offers a hierarchy or timeline of therapeutics1. It’s no surprise that it advises less invasive therapies like warm compresses and saline sprays as step #1 before giving advisements on which drugs to use. Still, most doctors are quick to write prescriptions for these drugs because patients expect them to. This, despite the 2008 Lancet article that found 94% of us will not get better with antibiotics. When drugs aren’t doing the trick, the final section of the Notebook advises referral to an Ear, Nose, and Throat specialist for surgical consult. The truth is, most doctors skip step #1 simply because they have no tools in their toolkit for uncomplicated sinusitis to rival the supposed beneficial effects of antibiotics2, steroid medications3, and questionably effective sinus surgeries4.

- Long term use of steroid medications are known to cause serious side effects and isn’t generally advisable. Prescriber’s Digital Reference (2020): Prednisone.

- Though patient satisfaction with endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) was “generally high” 10 years post surgery, “revision surgery rate was 17%.” That is, 17 out of 100 required additional surgeries. ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/31207172. Perhaps more importantly, surgery alters the natural architecture of the nose and sinuses which by its very nature starts from a point of loss. Unlike dentistry which removes undeniably diseased tissue (tooth decay), Sinus Ninja starts with the assumption that the structures of the nose and sinuses are normal and are more often than not reacting to abnormal conditions (biofilms, allergens, irritants, eosinophilia, and other rhinosinus toxicities).
