It generally happens during either or all of the following situations:
- When jala neti water is hot instead of luke warm.
- When jala neti water has more salt.
- When you have not blowed the excess water out of the nostrils after the neti. The remaining water is eliminated by doing kapalbhati - forcefully exhalations. It should be done until it is ensured that the air coming out of the nostrils does not have any water droplets when checked by blowing off on the back of the palm.

Recommendations:
Neti Pot - Generally, Copper Neti Pots are recommended. But now-a-days, good quality copper pots for neti are not available in the market, even at Amazon online market place - we could not find in the Amazon search for Copper Neti Pot. We tried with steel made neti pot too, and got disappointed with feedbacks thereof. The neti pots are better available at any of your local Yoga Institute like Morarji Desai Institution of Yoga at New Delhi, etc. The one we found that at amazon is cheap , can be easy to keep during travelling is small plastic neti pot at amazon. That works fine.
If you want to use to quality ceramic neti pot, that is available by Himalayan Institute at amazon, but yes it is expensive, even beyond the copper neti pot, but it is very customized to the nostrils and handling while doing neti. We have good experience of it as we have been using it for a long time. But again do not forget that it is ceramic one, it has to be handled with care and can be broken.
