After performing neti, it is not uncommon for some people to experience a runny nose or sneezing as the saline solution can cause some irritation in the nasal passages. This is usually temporary and will clear up on its own.
Here are a few things you can do to alleviate these symptoms:
- Wait for a few minutes after performing neti before blowing your nose. This will allow the saline solution to work and loosen up any mucus before you blow it out.
- Use a saline nasal spray or drops after neti to moisturize the nasal passages and reduce irritation.
- Avoid touching the inside of the nose with your fingers, as this can introduce bacteria and cause an infection.
- Make sure you are using sterile saline solution or distilled, filtered or boiled water, and a properly cleaned neti pot.
- If you experience severe or prolonged symptoms such as heavy nasal bleeding, severe pain, or fever, you should consult a healthcare professional.
It is also important to note that if you feel a continuous sneezing and runny nose even after days, it's best to consult a healthcare professional or your doctor, as it may be an indication of an allergy or nasal infection.
