Continue both saline nasal washes followed by intranasal corticosteroid sprays for at least 3 months.
Next Steps
Do Jala Neti (saline nasal washes) daily to keep the nasal mucosal system clean and healthy. Jala Neti bottle (300ml) and Jala Neti salt are easily available on Amazon, at a fraction of the cost of those available at your local pharmacy.
