thanks!

That's what I ended up getting her. I searched for a neti pot but couldn't find one locally so I stopped at walmart and got a bulb syringe.

I found a recipe that called for 4oz warm water, 1/4tsp baking soda, 1/8tsp non-iodized salt, and 1-2 drops tea tree oil (leave out tto if no infection). I got her all the stuff and dropped it off a bit ago.

I got the impression from the searching I did that you're supposed to let the solution go in one nostil and come out the other...I didn't see anything about the throat. I'm not sure I'm understanding what you're saying here, Ari

. You'll drain out your nose, and out the back of your throat.
Just that you end up cleaning out that whole area or are you suggesting letting the solution run down your throat? (and then what? ....out the mouth?)

Thank you for all the ideas...I printed everything out for her.
