I don't believe most of the what the leaflets suggest  ::).  If your nasal passages were swollen then a steroid-based spray will reduce the swelling.  It may not have helped any infection initially but perhaps any bugs had already gone.

Are you pain free?

Strangely I never had any pain at all it was waves of intense pressure in one side of my face and a feeling as if lots of gunk was sliding down back of nose into throat. 

It all started with the very painful area on bridge of nose on opposite side ::)  That improved once the pressure started.

told you weird!

When i had sinusitis a few year ago I actually went to the dentist first as it was my jaw and teeth that were so painful. I did find a face steamer helped relieve the pressure greatly. Lidl often have them in but any kind would do, mine was a cheapie. I put tea tree or olbas oilin mine for added effect. xx

Have been fine since that first dose of steroid spray. I stop it tomorrow although have only been using minimum dose this last week so will see if it comes back once I stop!
