[size=4][b]Sinusitis Heartburn - Sinusitis and Biofilms - an Introduction - Part 1[/b][/size][hr]Why is it that some sinusitis sufferers do not respond to normal treatments, medications and surgical procedures and continue to come down with sinus infections regardless of the treatment they have been given? One answer to this question appears to be an atypical immune reaction to fungus, and topical anti-fungal therapies heave been developed by Mayo Clinic researchers. Another possible answer to this question has surfaced in the past couple of years: biofilms. This article is meant to be a brief introduction to biofilms and how they might be a factor in recurring sinus infections.

[size=large][b]Non-Medical Implications of Biofilms[/b][/size][hr]Biofilms are not just associated with medical conditions, however. In fact biofilms are ubiquitous and can form under the right conditions on almost any kind of surface, including metals, rock, and of course human tissue. Two common examples of biofilms are pond scum and dental plaque. Detrimental biofilms are the cause of billions of dollars in damaged products and equipment systems in such fields as food processing, water treatment and metal-working. The also cause damage by clogging household drains and water pipes. Their effects are not always harmful, however, for example when they attach to the roots of certain plants they seem to aid the transfer of nutrients from the soil to the plant. Also, they are used in sewage treatment facilities to help treat sewage water before it is released to the environment, and they are utilized sinus tachycardia: clearing up the mucus and the confusion water as well. We have also translated parts of this composition into French and Spanish to facilitate easier understanding of Chronic Sinus. In this way, more people will get to understand the composition.

[size=large][b]Definition, Description and Medical Implications of Biofilms[/b][/size][hr]What are biofilms and how to they resist normal treatments for sinusitis such as antibiotics? 'Biofilms are composed of microbal communities that are attached to an environmental surface. The microorganisms usually encase themselves in an extra-cellular polysaccharide or slime matrix'. In other words, biofilms are a collection of bacteria and other microbes that encase themselves in a sort of slime. It is apparently the slime material that protects the bacteria from being destroyed by antibiotics, for example. Biofilms have been shown to play a major part in other medical conditions involving chronic infections, such as cystic fibrosis, Legionnaire's Disease, and otitis media, the most common type of acute ear infection in children in the U.S., among others. In addition, they can also form on medical implanted products such as stents, implants, catheters, and other devices. They appear to destroy cilia when present in sinusitis patients, and the loss of cilia is detrimental to the normal drainage system of nasal passages, so this is a serious issue since destroyed cilia cannot be replaced.

Quote:As a grown-up, you're most likely to catch a cold if you have kids or grandkids under the age of 5. Young children are magnets for colds because their immune systems haven't fully matured and because they haven't been sick often enough to build their defences against the 200 known cold-causing viruses. They pass their colds to their parents and grandparents, who can't resist snuggling up to under-the-weather tots.

Colostrum will help prevent the onset of these conditions by its boosting effect on the immune system. It will therefore help to reduce the number of attacks you may suffer in the course of a winter, reduce the severity and duration of the attack and speed your recovery.

The incidence of respiratory infections and gastric upsets was remarkably reduced in breast fed infants, according to research. Colostrum was found to contain Non Specific Inhibitors (NSI's), factors that are inhibitory for a wide range of respiratory illnesses, especially influenza viruses.

[b]Colds Symptoms include: Nasal congestion; facial pain; headache; fever; general malaise; thick green or yellow discharge; feeling of facial 'fullness' worsening on bending over; aching teeth.[/b]

By affecting both individual components of human immunity and the immune system as a whole, the factors in colostrum work together to provide support for a healthy immune system, supporting, balancing, and even rebuilding some of the immune components for a more fully functional system. In this way, colostrum strengthens all the troops, helping with the continual battle against invaders of all types.

You can also reduce your susceptibility to cold viruses by keeping your stress levels in check. Emotional stress depresses your immune system, so a virus can easily sneak in and infect you. Relieve sinus pressure, you help reinforce your body's immune defences.

Sometimes physicians prescribe antibiotics even if they cannot confirm a bacterial infection. The reasoning for this is that it is very difficult to ascertain whether bacteria are causing the sinusitis, and that it may be worth it to prevent a bacteria infection from appearing later. As with any medication, it is important to know the benefits, risks, and costs if using and if not using an antibiotic.

Welch, who sees many cases of sinusitis in her part of country, recommends bovine colostrum as an immune system booster program. 'I suggest its use to any patient who needs an immunological pick-up,' she says. We would like you to leisurely go through this article on Sinusitis to get the real impact of the article. Sinusitis is a topic that has to be read clearly to be understood.

[size=large][b]Cold Viruses Spread in Two Ways: Through the Air and by Direct Contact[/b][/size][hr]To reduce your odds of playing host to a virus floating on the breeze, increase the ventilation in your home. There is a lot of jargon connected with Sinusitis. However, we have eliminated the difficult ones, and only used the ones understood by everyone.

[size=large][b](Shortridge Et Al[/b][/size][hr]Journal of Trop Pediatrics 36( : 94-95 The immune system, like every national defense system, can always benefit from a good secret weapon. Colostrum is that weapon. One of the reasons colostrum has been used so successfully by people with immune system disorders is because it has a particularly rich source of bioactive immune factors that help fine-tune immune function. Sometimes, what we hear about Sinusitis Bronchitis can prove to be rather hilarious and illogical. This is why we have introduced this side of Sinusitis Bronchitis to you.

[b]Start everyone with acute infections on bovine colostrum,' she continues. 'But in my experience, the patients who gain the most from it are those with chronic and recurrent disease symptoms such as chronic fatigue syndrome, infectious diarrhea, sinusitis, and fibromyalgia."[/b]

Consideration If nasal secretions turn clear after a week, you probably do not have an infection; if the mucus is greenish or yellowish, you probably do. If secretions are clear and you have no other symptoms of a cold, you probably have allergies. It was at the spur of the moment that we ventured to write something about Sinusitis. Such is the amount of matter that is available on Sinusitis. :o.

[size=4][b]Noninvasive Sinus Treatment - Sinus Infections - Nurse's Ten Best Natural Sinus Buster Tips![/b][/size][hr]Got carried away. I have 14 sinus buster tips here that may help you avoid serious sinus infections, sinusitis or flu blocked sinus problems. It's a myth that sinus infections are only seasonal. Sinus infections can occur more often in winter when houses are closed up and not getting the proper ventilation. But seasonal allergies affect people more often in the spring and summer months. Some people suffer all-year-round. Many don't know why.

[list][*]Get plenty of exercise, especially outdoors to get good blood flow to the sinuses and clear your nasal passages. 7.[*]Make sure your bedroom air isn't too dry at night.[*]Air it out in the daytime if possible.[*]Problems occur when the sinuses dry out for any reason.[*]If you find you get nosebleeds at night or wake up with them, then the air may be too dry in your bedroom.[*]The most common cause of nosebleeds is lack of moisture - air that is too dry.[*]Some people use humidifiers but these can cause mold and moisture problems in your house also.[*]So that would be a last resort.[*]You'd want to get the kind that is 'bacteria free'.[/list]

Some advice has been to take hot showers, but I would only recommend this unless you have proper filtration, otherwise you're inhaling chlorine fumes and whatever chemicals are still left in the water. You can try inhaling steam with distilled or spring water over the stove with a towel over your head but irrigation would be much better.

You have to travel or don't have access to irrigation, then carry some saline nasal spray with you. It won't reach the sinus cavities but it will provide some moisture in your nasal passages. It may not reach socal sinus cavities however. Use it several times a day.

[list][*]Get tested for allergies including pollen and dust mites. 13.[*]Avoid inhaling dust, new or old household dust; avoid smoke and all fumes.[/list]

[size=large][b]Use Daily Saline Nasal Irrigation[/b][/size][hr]Use nasaline or the neti pot. Don't add baking soda, hydrogen peroxide or anything else to the solution. There is a lot of misinformation floating around the Internet; these substances can irritate and even damage the lining of your nose and sinus cavities and if you think you had problems before, you could certainly have then now. Saline solution only. A sinus buster!

[list][*]Make sure to get enough sleep.[*]Prop yourself up on pillows to restrict sinus drainage from entering your lungs at night.[*]You don't want to get pneumonia, Smile[/list]

[size=4][b]Chronic Sinusitis Bacteria - the Top Sinus Allergy Causes[/b][/size][hr]Sinus cavities, though they are located in the head, open up in the nasal passages for free exchange of air and mucus. This is how the sinus allergy causes come into play, enter the nasal cavity and often cause sinusitis.

[list][*]Pollen, a powdery substance released in the air by flowers is the most common cause for allergies.[*]All sinus allergies causes center around the pollen and therefore spring is the worse time for sufferers.[*]As the air is unusually dry in spring and the pollination season also starts, the pollen is carried easily by the dry breeze.[*]This way it enters the body with the air we breathe.[*]For those who are prone to sinus allergies the trouble begins at this stage.[*]The body perceives of these sinus allergy causes as harmful substances and produces histamine to tackle their effects.[*]The histamine causes itching in the eyes and a runny nose.[*]Quality is better than quantity.[*]It is of no use writing numerous pages of nonsense for the reader.[*]Instead, it is better to write a short, and informative article on specific subjects like Sinus.[*]People tend to enjoy it more. :o[/list]

Sinus allergy causes, whether it is pollen, animal fur, mold or dust is in most cases within ones sphere of control. Though there is not much that you can do to keep the pollen from coming in with the air, repeatedly cleaning the house often rids it of the other potential causes like mold and dust. Environmental triggers are the sinus allergy causes therefore try as much as possible to keep control on them. As long as the immediate surroundings of a person prone to sinusitis are clean, there are fewer chances of sinus allergy causes wrecking havoc on his or her system. It is always better to use simple English when writing descriptive articles, like this one on Sinus Allergy. It is the layman who may read such articles, and if he can't understand it, what is the point of writing it?

The answer to the riddle of why certain sinus allergy causes harm some people while leaving others unaffected lies in the hereditary make up of people. It is generally seen that people whose parents suffered from allergy of a certain type are predisposed towards them. Even unlikely sources like milk and milk products act as sinus allergy causes in some people with such hereditary make-up and can make them sick.

[size=large][b]Sinus Allergy Causes can be Many and Varied[/b][/size][hr]It can range from the pollen of flowers, dust, dirt, pollution etc. These sinus allergy cause the nasal cavity to become blocked. When the mucus cannot flow freely anymore, it becomes stuck inside the nasal cavity and that becomes a perfect breeding ground for allergies. We have taken the privilege of proclaiming this article to be a very informative and interesting article on Sinus Allergy. We now give you the liberty to proclaim it too.

[size=large][b]Many People Want Guidance in Perfecting this Technique and Seek Professional Help[/b][/size][hr]Mind, Body, Spirit healing is the most effective modality in facilitating or teaching this process. It is only through sheer determination that we were able to complete this composition on Sinusitis. Determination, and regular time table for writing helps in writing essays, reports and articles.

[size=large][b]Through Pain, Your Body is Working to Get Your Attention[/b][/size][hr]The key is to begin to listen. Your body is resilient and has an incredible capacity to handle stress and emotional issues, it can absorb a lot. But is it necessary to put your body through all this emotional effort on a regular basis? Is it worth it? When you deny your emotional issues or ignore the fact that your body is stressed out; sooner or later your body breaks down and you experience the pain'diagnosed as migraine headaches, MS, Lupus, Fibromyalgia, Chronic Fatigue, Cancer, Diabetes, TMJ, PMS, and the list goes on. It is only because that we are rather fluent on the subject of Sinus Issues that we have ventured on writing something so influential on Sinus Issues like this!

These are merely a few of the many ways our body communicates to us that we need to change something. From this point forward when your body has pain, ask your body, 'What is the pain about?' Pay attention to the response. For example: Close your eyes. Take a deep breath and blow out the breath with a big whoosh. Ask yourself: 'Why do I have a pain in my neck?' If the thought comes to you that you did something you aren't comfortable doing'pay attention to that thought. Expand on that thought. Maybe you said, 'Yes,' to something you didn't want to do. Maybe you talked yourself into doing something because someone else did it. Ask yourself many questions. If your response leads you to say, I want___. Notice if the pain you were experiencing has subsided or is completely gone. If the pain has subsided or is completely gone'you can be certain you have the right answer. If not, continue to explore and ask the question'What is the pain about? Initially this process may take several sessions over a few days, before you are certain of the answer. After you are accustomed to using this technique you will be certain of the answer on the first or second exploration. Although there was a lot of fluctuation in the writing styles of we independent writers, we have come up with an end product on Sinus Cavities worth reading!

[size=large][b]Knee Pain (Problems) Originates in the Shoulders[/b][/size][hr]Shoulders represent our ability to carry our experiences in life joyously. We make life a burden by our attitude'taking on responsibility that does not belong to us. If you feel responsible for everyone in your life, that's a lot of weight and molecules to 'shoulder.' With that much weight, no wonder your knees are hurting in their effort to hold up all those people. Why have surgery to repair or replace your knee(s), when you can eliminate the burden from your knees'and shoulders'and free yourself of the excess weight? By having surgery you will simply continue to create the same problem and be back to the same predicament in a year or two.

[size=large][b]When You Experience a Pain in Your Neck, Make the Connection[/b][/size][hr]Your neck is where your power to speak resides'the throat chakra. The question is'Are you expressing your truth? Your throat chakra is connected to your feet. What is going on in your life that you 'Can't stand?', thus causing you to give yourself a pain in the neck. Who is being a pain in the neck? If you are not addressing your truth, you will get stuck or blocked in life and you will not move forward productively. You may think you are moving forward every day, but, nonetheless, you may be stuck on a particular issue and not really moving forward. Do you have periods when everything you want to accomplish seems like you are walking up a steep hill or in molasses, even though what you want to accomplish is nothing new and you have done it a hundred times? Ask yourself, 'Do I want to continue this project, or did I say, 'Yes,' because I don't want to say, 'No?' What is your truth? What do you want? "I will avoid pain, grief, stress, misery." "What I want is ____." (State this clearly and precisely.)

Sinus medicine cannot clear your first chakra of emotional issues lodged in your sinus cavities. Only you have the power to resolve those for yourself. Herbal supplements can support your immune system so it can do its job, but you still need to clear the emotional issues to completely eliminate sinus issues. You need to uncover the reason for the irritation. Remember that it is very important to have a disciplined mode of writing when writing. This is because it is difficult to complete something started if there is no discipline in writing especially when writing on Sinus.

You don't need to play macho with your body, doing the 'stiff upper lip' method''I'm tough, I can take it,' 'I can handle anything,' or I'm responsible for everyone else' routine. Whether you pretend you're OK or not, over a period of time, your body just breaks down. You can give your body a break by beginning to resolve those emotional issues, which are hurting you. When a child shows a flicker of understanding when talking about Sinus Medicine, we feel that the objective of the meaning of Sinus Medicine being spread, being achieved.

Sinusitis, colds, respiratory issues, earaches and asthma are connected to your first chakra, which holds all your belief systems and your relationships, especially your family--irritation to one person, someone close. We have to be very flexible when talking to children about Sinus Medicine. They seem to interpret things in a different way from the way we see things!
