Nasal irrigation or
nasal lavage or
nasal douche is the personal
hygiene practice in which the
nasal cavity is washed to flush out excess
mucus and debris from the
nose and
sinuses. Nasal cleansing began as an
ayurvedic medicine technique in ancient India. The practice is generally well-tolerated and beneficial with only minor side effects.
[1] Nasal irrigation in a wider sense can also refer to the use of
saline nasal spray or
nebulizers to moisten the
mucous membranes.
According to its advocates, nasal irrigation promotes good sinus and
nasal health. Patients with chronic sinusitis including symptoms of
facial pain, headache,
halitosis, cough, anterior
rhinorrhea
(watery discharge) and nasal congestion often find nasal irrigation to
provide effective relief. In published studies, "daily hypertonic saline
nasal irrigation improves sinus-related quality of life, decreases
symptoms, and decreases medication use in patients with frequent
sinusitis",
[2] and irrigation is recommended as an adjunctive treatment for chronic sinonasal symptoms.
