Sinus Plumber Headache Nasal Spray – Headache Formula

Sinus Plumber is a very apt name for this product. According to the label, horseradish is among its active ingredients. I would recommend starting slowly, because it can make you tear up. One or two sprays is plenty most of the time. Unfortunately, the effect wears off after a few hours, but if you're used to being tortured by a stuffy nose it's a pretty good product.

I suffer from terrible migraines. I lost my insurance because of Trump. So I'm resorting to literally anything to get rid of my migraines. This provides some relief. which makes it worth every penny.

I have really bad migraines/cluster/allergy headaches, it's probably one of them. This happens about once a month. When it's really bad, and nothing else is working, this is does give temporary relief. It does not make it go away completely, but it eases the pain of the headache for about 20 minutes or so. However, it seems to ease the pain by causing even more intense pain for about 5 seconds when you sniff the peppers and feel like your sinus is on fire. But it still works when nothing else gives any kind of relief

At first, I thought I had developed a spring allergy to accompany my usual autumn allergies. But when the symptoms hadn't dissipated by December, I realized I had a new problem. My doctor prescribed an antihistamine that didn't work, and a corticosteroid spray that didn't work. I was miserable with no solution in sight. But I'm a health writer, so I searched Google Scholar for research on new options, and found a meta-analysis site that suggested capsaicin might be worth trying. Amazon seemed to be the best source, as it would ship quickly. The first time I used this spray, I felt everything open up from my nasal passages out to my left ear (my left side has been more congested). By the third time, when I looked in the mirror, I noticed that externally, my nose appeared thinner. I hadn't realized that it was so inflamed internally that it appeared swollen on the outside... until the spray made that swelling go down. Using this in conjunction with a prescription anti-cholinergic spray, Atrovent, means that I can sleep without waking up coughing for the first time in months. It does sting enough to make my eyes water. It's worth every tear.

Update: Well for me, this stuff works well TEMPORARILY. My headache kept coming back and I'd used the nose spray again. Finally had to take Imitrex and Fioricet to get rid of the headache. So I'm not sure if it was just going to be a really bad headache, or what. Jury is still out. Lol. Will update again when I have had more experience with this. Original review: Thank God this stuff works. I had a headache before it arrived today. Thought, well this will be a good day to try it out. Three sprays in each nostril and immediately I began to feel better. Don't know how long relief will last, but I'm hopeful. I get migraines, I have been diagnosed with "Chronic Migraines" and get the Botox shots, have tried the new Emgality and Aimovig with no help. They just made me extremely nervous and anxiety out the roof. Personally I thing Emgality should be banned, the side effects for me were awful. That said, I normally take Imitrex or Relpax for migraine and suppliment as needed with Fioricet with Codeine. So for you fellow migrianers, you know what I'm talking about. I used the nasal spray before taking any meds and I am amazed so far! I am empressed. Hey this stuff beats taking meds that have tiring side effects. Try it! It may help you too. I will update review later to let you know the longer term relief or lack thereof.

I've been having cluster headaches almost everyday for five months. I did not know they were cluster headaches until recently, I thought it was actually tooth pain and had a tooth pulled to find out it wasn't my teeth. I googled "my eye feels like it's exploding" and found out it's the big clusters. If you have them you know the pain, if you don't have them I will say it feels like my eyeball is a balloon and someone is blowing it up to the point it's JUST about to pop. Incredible pain. Unfortunately when I found this out I tried to get an urgent appointment with my doctor, but he can't see me for a few weeks. So I've had to be creative with dealing with the pain. I did a lot of research and found out about this capsaicin spray. The theory on this is that the nerve that is causing the pain connects in your nose canal, and the capsaicin can basically numb this nerve temporarily. I wasn't hopeful because many said it didn't work for them, but I had to try. But this claims to be helpful with clusters and other headaches. I really can't say if this works or not because my clusters are unpredictable. I sometimes get what is called a shadow which can come before or after an attack. I have gotten shadows that tell me a cluster is about to start, but the cluster sometimes (rarely) doesn't come. So I can't say if this really has worked or not but I BELIEVE that if I catch it soon enough that this spray has either prevented an attack or at least made it less excruciating. I'd say if anything, it helps LESS than half of the time which is better than nothing. If you are having clusters and you don't have access to imitrex or O2 tank, this spray is worth a shot. I use this spray every day and my nose hasn't gotten used to the burn. The burn isn't as bad as I'd expect it to be. Eating capsaicin is a worse burn than up the nose. I kinda think that maybe there's a small amount or no capsaicin in this spray but I can't say for sure. There is a burn though and it has irritated my nose. I think sometimes it makes my inner nose raw so the next time I use it the burn is enough to make me tear up. So my review is inconclusive. It's worth a shot. There's no strong smell to it but it has a faint particular scent. If you breathe in too deeply when you spray it can make your throat itch and cause coughing. But the burning itching and coughing is all better than a cluster headache. For the record I probably won't be buying this again after it runs out. Mostly because by then I will have imitrex and other abortives, but also because I don't have a lot of faith in this product plus I think it's expensive for what it is. I can get stronger capsaicin for cheaper if I wanted to. I don't regret trying it though and I will use it until it's gone.

Tried out of desperation for chronic rhinitis - blows your brains out but sadly did nothing for the chronic condition.
