\r\n \r\n These really are what most people need. I\'m willing to bet that most people have swollen nasal passages. Specifically, their swollen nasal passages are caused by swollen turbinates. I\'m also willing to bet these same people can usually only breathe out of one nostril, especially at night. And I\'m willing to bet again, that the nostril they prefer to breathe out of is the left nostril. They feel safer breathing out of the left one.
\n
\nNo more afrin, no more corticosteroids, no more turbinate reduction sugery......NO MORE BULLSHIT!
\n
\nOur fucking nasal passages are blocked and we can\'t fucking sleep! And all the bullshit we\'ve been trying to use to unblock it is just that....its bullshit. Its not a long term fix. It harms us. It makes things worse.
\n
\nBut a real fix is finally here. A stent that you put in your nasal passage at night before you goto bed and take out in the morning. No surgery, no rebound effect, just a safe way to open your nasal passages at night.
\n
\nAnd all the nasal hair still goes right through the nasal stent. So the nasal hairs can still do their job.
\n
\nUnfortunately the unelected FDA will not let US citizens try it. Because, don\'t you know? Some politician in a suit knows what you need to help you sleep at night better than you do.
\n
\nI\'ll sleep better at night once we elect someone like Ron Paul as president and get rid of a government food and drug regulating body once and for all.\r\n

\r\n \r\n no, but I tried these:

\n
\nthe snorepin. it looks almost exactly like the sinus cone except it has holes in it to allow nasal hair to go through.
\n
\nunfortunately, it pretty much does what breathe right strips do. It can expand the bottom of your nose.
\n
\nBut people who are "congested" (I don\'t like the word congested...it makes people think of being stuffed up with mucus...in fact, I think most people who are "stuffed up" just have swollen turbinates, unless of course you have a cold or something, but then you\'d have crap leaking out of your nose and you\'d know what it is) have blockage past the bony part of your nose.
\n
\nThe strips and cones can only open up the bottom part...they can do nothing to open up swollen turbinates. To open up the nasal passage where the turbinates are swollen, you must go past the bony part of the nose and it must be opened up from the inside.
\n
\nThe stent can do that.\r\n

\nI think the entire GLOBE will breath ALOT easier once he is President. I mean really, have you seen the choices that the main stream media has chosen? ICK and EW.
\n
\nI considered lasering the offending tissue last year. But chickened out. I worry about anything placed sooo close to brain for fear of infection or the dreaded scar tissue forming!
\n
\nI agree tho, SOMETHING needs to be done other than drugs/surgery. But, have you held up the area of skin near eyebrows and bridge of nose with fingers? Seems to release pressure and passages open up. At least they do for me. I am thinking a slight eyebrow lift maybe? (Or, push up the tip of your nose - not sure that would look right if surgically altered to stay that way)\r\n

\r\n \r\n I was stuck using prescription sinus meds until I started using a saline rinse and quit eating wheat.

\nBeing able to breathe easy is high on the list of simple pleasures, like sleep, and clean water when you\'re thirsty.\r\n
