Wow, good point Echo. I never noticed that happening to me, but I don't rinse that often any more. I'm glad you mentioned that. I will try to avoid that in future.
I love using the neti pot when I'm stopped up. It is so satisfying to watch all that snot just run out with the water! Sure wish I had given it a try years ago when I first saw one!

I am guessing that you grew up with older and younger brothers around.

Nope, no boys, just girls. I was a bit of a Tomboy myself though.

[quote="socknitster"]wabmorgan,
Simply Saline is a life-saver for me too. The other bottled salines on the market contain a preservative that I am now allergic to. Nothing like using a product like that when you already have allergies and the tissue is inflamed--to give you yet another allergy. Benzalkonium chloride is the preservative.
I use simply saline on my son too--have since he was a baby. Nothing like power washing the boogers out of a kids nose so they can breath. Simply saline and a stack of tissues has come in handy more than once.
