Do those nasal strips really work?
I'm so congested right now. I'm desperate. Yes, I'm on meds, I have amoxicillin for a sinus infection and am taking Contac for colds/flu. I was watching tv and that commercial for the nasal strips happened to come on and I thought that maybe that would be something to try, but I really don't want to spend the money if they aren't worth it.
Has anyone had luck with them?
Um, my liver is fine, thank you. LOL. I have a simple sinus infection and the flu. Have had blood work recently and all checked out. I'm glad that I have the amoxicillin. I'm sorry, but I have faith in my physician and don't go for the mumbo jumbo... I'm treating my symptoms of the flu and sinus infection. I don't need to get to the "root" of the problem. The problem is that I have a sinus infection and the flu.
Anyway... thanks, to almost everyone else for your opinions. :)

Nasal strips can be helpful by slightly enlarging the nasal passages. You might also try saline nasal spray or nasal rinse to help with the congestion. Good Luck.

Those strips don't work for me. I use Afrin Nasal Spray which is incredible! I hate when I can't sleep because my nose is all blocked up and this stuff completely opens it up. Just don't use it for too long!

They will help open your nasal passage a bit to help you breath but if you are super congested it won't help you out that much. have you tried Vicks? Maybe you could try them together and that might help you.

I find nasal sprays help a lot more than strips. Afrin is a good one, but most of them will really help you to breathe easier. Just don't overdo it, and as you're already taking a lot of medicines, it would be a good idea to consult your doctor beforehand.

Try putting one over your a*** and farting til your ring falls off! That will certainly make you forget about your congestion.
