What can I do so that the rinsing solution does not run out of my nose sometime after nasal rinsing?

Some rinsing solution might run unexpectedly out of your nose sometime after nasal rinsing. Responsible for this is the individual anatomical nature of the main nasal cavity and its connection with the maxillary sinus. In this case it may help you to dry your nasal mucous membrane after nasal rinsing (see below). In this way you can prevent any liquid from running out later on. If some rinsing solution does run unexpectedly out of your nose, just blow your nose cautiously.

What can I do if the rinsing solution does not flow through my nose?

First try blowing your nose cautiously, this may help. If not, you can try rinsing from the other side first, as one side is usually more congested than the other. You can then try again from the congested side, either at once or later on. Most of the time one of our nostrils is wider open than the other. When breathing calmly through one?s nose most of the air flows through this open nostril. Sometime during the day the other nostril opens up.
