If I have sinus problem and eye itch which should I buy?

I read something about these two and they both claim to help with sinus problem.

Also come to my attention is air dehumidifier, which is the opposite of air humidifier, also claims to help with sinus problem. I saw a pamplet from hospital today claiming that dehumidifier can help starve dust mites and help with sinus problem.

So which should I buy?

Take my comment with a grain of salt, okay? Air purifier basically removes things like dust in the air, so it's good for those who have an allergy to dust/pollens. Air humidifier is good for those that have sinusitis since it maintains your mucus lining, it can be generally used in almost every situation but you have to make sure it won't affect your furniture, especially those leather-made ones. Air dehumidifier, on the other hand, de-moisturises the air for people that have trouble inhaling due to the high humidity to breathe easier and to prevent the growth of mould, so its usage is quite niche.

edit: Your conditions could be due to dry air. So maybe air humidifier suits you more, just my 2 cents.

same same take this also with a grain of salt...
im using air humidifier..to sleep..heheh lavender works wonders but most likely air purifier would work better...except its also more expensive.

ive got sinus issues too not so sure about that the dust mite thing but the eye itch usually its dust...

Your environment is important ...make sure its not dusty...cause dust will trigger the leaking nose n the itchy/puffy eyes. This is personal experience la..
the most crucial is to fix environment make sure its CLEAN, which is like make sure all the shelves clean weekly / best if keep minimal stuff around so the surface u have to clean less. if not clean till u pengsan..
then air the room dont leave it all stuffy...clean sheets...blanket...
clothes, towel all got to jaga also..if wardrobe all not like close n has dust will easily trigger..

weather/ temperature..suddenly hot then cold also nose like pipe bocor..

Or to simplify what we said, buy an air purifier with humidifying feature would probably help TS if budget isn't an issue.

I have a sinus problem as well, though I have my doubts if any of these humidifiers or air purifiers work.

Nevertheless, I'm pretty sure they are not harmful. So I have a model that is an activated carbon filter. Generally, I hear that HEPA filter ones are the most effective ones though.

In any case, make sure to look at the prices of filter changes before deicing on any. That is pretty much the main hidden cost.

+1.
I'm using this at home.





The only thing is that you need to open the compartment and top-up the water.

It depends on what you want to do.

If the cause of your sinus is due to dirty air then use a purifier with good filters to ensure you have clean air.

Humidifier/Dehumidifier add/remove moisture from the surroundings.

I have sinus too....i use essential oil aromatherapy. Helps me sleep and improves my condition.

I use lavender & a special oil called RC by Young Living. It does help my case.

true ...but if the basic stuff of cleaning not manage same one..it can only do so much those machines..
also ive seen a client doing coway open up the machine..some like sharp the filter inside smaller n dunno which other...
but m not here to promote any brand la..which every brand firstly easiest is to manage the environment.

If got furry pets le..can go bang the wall liao...confirm need air purifier..
sinus n pets dont get along much

ive tried that but now trying another brand melaleuca..still cant decide which i like better
but does essential oil help with sinus..sleep yes la..

It's like you said, the 3 products does different things. Talk to your doctor first to find out what's causing your sinus problems and eye itching, then you'll able to figure out which of the 3 effects will help you the most. Your doctor will be able to comment further on this too.

It does for me.

There are quite a number of brands out there. YL, Dottera, Melaleuca.......
See which fits you.

which ? i use lavendar for sleep which is good for sinus?

You can try R.C. or Allergy Combo (Lavender, Peppermint & Lemon)
Try it out.
