And it helps me do really long underwater dolphin kicks in backstroke.<div style="clear:both;"></div>https://community.usms.org/thread/26042?ContentTypeID=1Mon, 25 Apr 2005 11:02:50 GMT3187ac58-ba85-4314-b79a-c45cd885e09a:2e8bf87a-1ccb-4104-a6ad-2d883bf3a95bFormer MemberSudafed and antihistamines is what I have to take.<div style="clear:both;"></div>https://community.usms.org/thread/26144?ContentTypeID=1Mon, 25 Apr 2005 09:17:13 GMT3187ac58-ba85-4314-b79a-c45cd885e09a:f46b404c-8b0c-4eae-b445-06e1df830f95andeever tried a neti pot? <a href="http://www.healthandyoga.com/html/clean/nasal.html">www.healthandyoga.com/.../nasal.html</a> ande Originally posted by sammy2 64 year old long time fitness lap swimmer has developed severe sinus congestion 6-8 hours after swim.

I started using one just to swim backstroke and stay underwater on the turns longer. I noticed that I wasn&#39;t so stuffed up after my practices anymore, I guess not having the nasal flush every swim was beneficial to my nasal passages.<div style="clear:both;"></div>
