Fenugeek and Cumin work excellently

Detailed Answer:
Hi,Madam
I have read your query and understand your concern.

Natural ayurvedic home therapies for sinusitis:

Using black cumin and fenugreek seeds:

1.Take a clean cloth,add one tsp of black cumin seeds.
Wrap the cloth and place near the nose and inhale.

2.Roast one tsp of cumin seeds.
Crush them and add one tsp of honey.
Mix well and consume everyday.

3.Take one tsp of fenugreek seeds and add 4 cups of water.
Boil the mixture till the water reduces to half.
Strain the liquid,and drink 4 cups of this liquid everyday.

4.Consume garlic and onions as a part of your diet.

These therapies also reduce fever associated with sinusitis by eliminating all potential toxins.

I hope this info is helpful to you.
Thank you

Brief Answer:
Black cumin is preferred

Detailed Answer:
Hi,XXXX

Welcome back,

Black cumin seeds work very well instead of normal ones.

Yes fenugeek liquid is slightly bitter,but i am sure you can tolerate it.
In case if its intolerable add 2 tsps of honey to it ,It will be palatable.
