In case of cold, sore throat, strep throat also swelling is there but to some extent less then it is visible in sinus.Sinus, cold and sore throat usually happen in the following situations -- Change of season, drinking lot of water after exercises, when u get up in the morning, after swimming, after having first sex, kissing, first time smoking etc.The reason - During winters our body stores less water. This is evident from loss of water from body evident from frequent urination. Normally the body adjusts the water stored in the body automatically. But due to drinking water with meals or shortly after meals, the systems responsible for controlling the water level in the body stops working properly.The same thing happens when u get up in the morning - When one drinks lot of water with dinner and sleeps shortly after dinner the body tends to store lot of water. The same is not adjusted suitably when one gets up in the morning. The same thing happen! s after swimming the body is heated up and cooled at the same time. It a person allows sweating after a swimming session and does not drink water or does not take a shower in cold water sore throat may not happen.After having first sex, kissing, first time smoking people tend to either overeat, drink lot of water and sleep immediately so sinus.Lot of people in their questions mentioned that they were advised about eating ice cream to get rid of the sinus or sore throat. Yes sudden eating of the ice cream may force the body's system to get up and start working. But that happens only 10 to 20 percent cases. And if that does not happen the sore throat or sinus is aggrevated.The easier way out is to allow body to sweat for 1 or 2 hour by increasing the body temperature but not drinking water or other fluids for may be 1 hour after that.The other easy way to control swelling is to give up water and all other liquids for 24 hours. In 24 hours there will be no significant dehydrat! ion to cause organ failure. But to be double sure one can stay indoors ! for 24 hours. This helps in lot of other ailments. One can do it when one is in indoors and does not have a conditions. It improves the immune system. It ensures that body's control systems work properly.In 24 hours the reduction in the fluids will be about 3 litres or about 5% of the total body weight of a normal adult.Never the swelling due to sinus or cold and cough is more than 5% of the body volume.During this period of 24 hours the lose of water from the body does not reduce even by 1% to offset reduced water intake.The reduction in loss of body water thru urine or sweating starts after 48 hours in most of people. But to be on safe side giving up water and liquids for 24 hours will do the trick.The reduced swelling will give immediate relief from pain. It will make is much more easier to eliminate the cough thru nose without any pain.That will also improve the blood acid levels by about 10%. This makes changes at the cell level as well. Blood acid levels are the first! line of defense against the infections. So swelling gone, pain gone, cough moving out, infections taken care of. Now what remains in the body for the next change of season time. Obviously nothing.So it has already given u long term relief from sinus. But in some cases one may get sinus during next change of season and may have to do this again. The reason is during change of season the body must adjust the water that is stored in the body. Due to some cell level changes the ability of the body to bring those changes is lost. But after 2-3 seasons that ability of the body will be restored and there will be complete relief from sinus.There is one more thing that will ensure that u never get sinus or cold again in your life.Drink 1 glass of water 1 hour before each meal. No other water or liquids on 4-5 days in a week. So on these days you do not exceed 3 glasses of water in 24 hours.On rest 2-3 days do whatever u feel like....
