Hi everyone, if you haven't done it yet please request your mucus being tested for bacteries. I just did and they discovered Staphylococcus A. So I'm on a 10 day course of antibiotics now. Together with that, my ENT advised me to do nasal rinse with xylitol/bicarbonate soda/salt mixture for a month. I'm on day 4 of the rinse now and two huge thick nasty mucus globs were dislodged from deep down my nose/sinuses. It feels like such a relieve and now I'm convinced that there's more crap up there that needs to get out. Hopefully this will resolve my post nasal drip that started 15 months ago after my (very mild) covid infection. I guess covid messed up something there and hopefully it's all being reversed now by rinsing and antibiotics.
