Severe nasal congestion

I have a cold and my nasal congestion is not being relieved by OTC medications. Am also doing nasal rinses but often can not because the sinuses are too blocked. Any suggestions?

Yes dear go for steroid sprays ,beclometasone or fluticasone very effective for nasal congestion and take only one dose at 8 pm
first day of use take 2 sprays in each nostril and continue and when improved used one spray per nostril

 THIS CONDITION IS BECAUSE OF ANTIBIOTICS ADDED TO MEATS AND FOODS.. OR TAKING PRESCRIBED ANTIBIOTICS.. ALSO HIGHER INTAKE OF SUGARS AND ALCOHOL.
DO NOT USE OTC DRUGS, THEY MAKE YOU WORSE. 
                                 
First ill tell you about the research ive done... 
i've been reading about anti-biotics and alcohol and the effect they have on the body because thats what i was taking a lot of when my problems started. however, Side effects of medications, or exposure to toxins, chemicals, substances or certain situations may also cause this condition. Hence, they become possible underlying causes of Candidiasis but are often misdiagnosed or overlooked as a cause.

basically ill just explain quickly the main points so you understand. 

when you take anti-biotics, drink alcohol, take certain drugs, etc... it kills off all of the good bacteria in your body systems, except one kind. CANDIDA. WICH IS CONSIDERED A GOOD BACTERIA UNTIL IT MULTIPLIES. THE MAJORITY OF PEOPLE IN THE U.S. HAVE CANDIDA OVERGROWTH. 

most of us do not replace the bacteria we need to put candida in check enough before CANDIDA begins to multiply out of control in our systems. candida will continue to grow especially if taking more anti-biotics, eating sugar in any form, drinking alcohol.. or eating carbohydrates which conform into sugars and in turn feed the  CANDIDA exactly what it needs to thrive... after a short time of candida overgrowth it becomes a fungus, spreads all over the body and causes almost every ailment you have heard of. here is a list of some: 

READ ALL SYMPTOMS 

--------------------EAR BLOCKAGE 
- BAD MIGRANE headaches 
-STIFF NECK 
---------------------------SWOLLEN LYMPH NODES 
- RECURRING YEAST INFECTIONS 
-ANXIETY/STRESS
-----------------------------MUCUS IN STOOL
-BREATHLESSNESS
-BRAIN FOG 
-CONFUSION 
-BLURRY VISION 
-EYE PROBLEMS 
---------------------------DIABETES
-JOINT PAIN 
-FEVERS 
-CIRCULATION PROBLEMS (COLD HANDS AND FEET) 
------------------------------MUSCLE CRAMPS 
-----------DEPRESSION 
-----------------------CHRONIC FATIGUE SYNDROME 
-ALL AROUND TIRED FEELING 
-SLEEPLESSNESS 
-HEART DISEASE 
-LIVER PROBLEMS 
-DIABETES 
-------------------ASTHMA 
------------------ALLERGIES 
---- LEG PAINS
-----------------------------------------SINUSITIS 
-BACK PAIN 
-BAD BREATH 
-BLADDER INFECTIONS 
-VARICOSE VEINS 
-BLOATING 
-ARTHRITIS 
-ACNE 
--------------ACID REFLUX( SORE TONGUE) SORE THROAT... 
-HEARTBURN 
- ITCHY RECTUM 
-AUTISM   ! 

THIS IS JUST A FEW. 
AND THE LIST GOES ON. I CAN FIND OUT MORE IN THESE BOOKS IF YOU HAVE SPECIFIC SYMPTOMS YOU WANT ME TO CHECK IF IT CAUSES. 

THIS HAS TAKEN ME THREE YEARS OF MY LIFE TO PUT TOGETHER AND I BELIEVE IT WILL WORK FOR EVERYONE TO RID THEMSELVES OF ALL OF THESE "SYMPTOMS".  I CALL THEM SYMPTOMS BECAUSE THEY ARE ALL CAUSED BY ONE ROOT ISSUE. CANDIDA. 
I HAVE PUT TOGETHER A REGIMEN HOW TO KILL CANDIDA, PUT IT IN CHECK AND DETOXIFY THE BODY OF THE WASTE. TRUST ME THIS WILL WORK. 

THESE ARE THE STEPS THAT ALL MUST BE DONE IN COMBINATION WITH EACHOTHER. depending on how long its been overgrowing this regimen could take up to 9 months to completely fix the problem. each person is different some may only require 2 weeks.

STEP 1. DIET to starve candida( THIS DIET IS NOT HARD AND IT IS VERY HEALTHY) 
      - NO SUGAR OF ANY KIND( CANDIDA THRIVES ON IT) EVER NOTICE AFTER EATING SUGAR HOW STRANGE YOU FEEL? 
      - NO BREADS OR GRAINS OR RICE (THESE ARE ALL CARBS AND WILL CONVERT TO SUGAR ,ONCE AGAIN FEEDING CANDIDA). 
      - NO MILK OR CHEESE 
      - NO FRUIT JUICES 
      - NO FRUITS     
      - NO ALCOHOL( THIS IS THE MOST REFINED SOURCE OF SUGAR YOU CAN TAKE)  
      - NO ANTIBIOTICS or meats that have been treated with antibiotics( THESE KILL THE GOOD BACTERIA MAKING IT IMPOSSIBLE FOR CANDIDA TO EVER BE PUT IN CHECK BY THEM) 

BASICALLY YOUR DIET WILL CONSIST OF: 

    1.MEATS AND VEGETABLES,AND FAT FREE PLAIN  YOGURT MIXED WITH RAW GARLIC.SHEEP AND GOAT YOGURT IS BEST BUT COW IS FINE IF YOU DONT LIKE THEM ( EXCEPT THE FOLLOWING) ; 
           -NO PORK-  
              -AND NO MEATS THAT HAVE BEEN GIVEN ANTIBIOTICS- BEST IF PACKAGE SAYS NO ANTIBIOTICS- HEALTH  FOOD STORES          HAVE PLENTY. 

            - NO CARROTS, corn, beans, OR BEETS, THESE CONTAIN HIGH AMOUNTS OF SUGAR/carbs. 
STEP 2-  2 kinds of SUPPLEMENTS ; 
-1.      ENZYMES! IMAGINE THAT. ( MUST HAVE THESE TWO INGREDIENTS AT LEAST,, CELLULASE AND PROTEASE.  
        - CELLULASE BREAKS DOWN THE OUTER WALL OF CANDIDA CELLS AND PROTEASE DIGESTS THE INSIDE. "GARDEN OF LIFE" HAS GREAT ENZYMES.
 -2.     PROBIOTICS   
          -MAINLY CONTAINING ACIDOPHILUS.  TRY TO GET A KIND THAT MUST BE REFRIDGERATED THESE WILL WORK BEST AS THEY ARE LIVING. THESE REGULATE CANDIDA AND KEEP IT IN CHECK AFTER KILLING IT OFF. KILLING CANDIDA MAY TAKE A WHILE DEPENDING ON HOW LONG ITS BEEN MULTIPLYING IN YOUR SYSTEM. GARDEN OF LIFE ALSO HAS GREAT PROBIOTICS.. THE BEST IVE FOUND IS CALLED PRIMAL DEFENSE. ITS SOIL ORGANISMS.(when i eat yogurt i open acidophilus pills and mix 2 or three into the yogurt.. this works great. 

STEP 3 
-APPLICATION 
1.EVERY MORNING WHEN YOU WAKE UP TAKE TWO ENZYME PILLS. ACCOMPANIED BY TWO PROBIOTIC PILLS. 
2.WAIT AT LEAST ONE HOUR BEFORE EATING. THE FIRST AND LAST THING YOU EAT EVERY DAY WILL BE THIS: 
         -AT LEAST 4 CLOVES OF RAW ORGANIC GARLIC DICED AND SLICED  AND MIXED INTO TWO CUPS OF PLAIN FAT FREE YOGURT. 
         - YOU MUST EAT THIS EVERY DAY. raw GARLIC DESTROYS CANDIDA BUT NOT THE GOOD BACTERIA. raw GARLIC IS A STRONG NATURAL ANTIBIOTIC BUT SAFE FOR YOUR INTESTINAL BACTERIA THIS IS BEST. IN COMBINATION WITH YOGURT WHICH WILL REPLACE NEEDED FLORA IN THE INTESTINES.raw garlic also clears out metals like mercury which candida binds to and will release into body once its killed. garlic is a miracle herb. you must keep garlic in your system all day to ensure maximum benefits.   
3.TAKE ENZYMES IN BETWEEN MEALS THROUGHOUT THE DAY. AND EAT THE GARLIC/YOGURT COMBO AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE THIS IS YOUR MEDICINE. THE MORE YOU EAT OF IT THE QUICKER YOU WILL HEAL.to keep yourself from being constipated eat green veggies high in fiber.. broccoli...... 

4.THIS MUST BE DONE IN COMBINATION WITH THE DIET. TRUST ME I KNOW I TOOK ENZYMES AND WAS KILLING IT OFF BUT I WAS STILL EATING SUGAR AND CARBS AND IT WOULD COME RIGHT BACK.   ENZYMES will not be as effective if not accompanied with the other steps. 



VERY IMPORTANT--- AS YOU KILL CANDIDA OFF IN YOUR BODY THERE ARE SYMPTOMS CALLED "DIE OFF" SYMPTOMS; I AM GOING THROUGH THESE NOW. IT IS A RESULT OF THE CANDIDA FUNGUS DYING AND RELEASING TOXINS INTO YOUR BODY.. AS LONG AS YOU ARE EATING PLENTY OF RAW UNCOOKED GARLIC THE GARLIC WILL CLEAN THESE TOXINS OUT OF YOUR BODY YOU MUST REMEMBER THAT AS YOU GO THROUGH THESE YOUR BODY IS HEALING-- DONT BE DISCOURAGED. KEEP ON THE DIET AND THE REGIMEN. HERE IS A 
List of Candida Die-Off Symptoms 
 you may experience some or many of the following  die-off symptoms. Although these side-effects can make one feel as if they're getting worse, it's a positive sign that the yeast is dying off and ultimately being eliminated form the body. 
? dizziness 
? headache 
? fuzzy thinking 
? depression 
? anxiety 
? angry outbursts 
? gas & bloating 
? flatulence 
? diarrhea 
? constipation 
? joint pain 
? muscle pain 
? body aches 
? sore throat 
? fatigue 
? exhaustion 
? need for more sleep 
? sweating 
? chills 
? nausea 
? skin breakouts 
This list may seem overwhelming, but it?s actually a good sign to experience at least some of these symptoms since it's proof positive that a chosen candida detox program is working. Candida detox symptoms are very much like candida symptoms themselves, but often to a larger degree in the beginning. 
try this for one week and you will know if it is working. believe me. 

1. diet.    (no sugar no carbs)
2. supplements.   (only two) enzymes and probiotics. 
3. yogurt with lots of raw chopped garlic. (eat as much garlic as you can)  yogurt eases the process of consuming soo much of it and also replaces the good bacteria you need) this combo is great.

love you guys this will work. it takes a little discipline but well worth it when you get your life back.
