Used the neti pot for the first time, still have a little burning in nose, sinuses, is this normal? I have had post nasal drip for 3 weeks. Author: Alison With our product you should expect a soothing rinse and not a burning sensation. Make sure you dissolve the entire contents of the NeilMed packet in lukewarm water before using it. If you feel any burning and the problem continues, please contact our office so we can modify the method for you. Last modified:11-06-2009, 7:31 pm Number of views:35 Ketan C.
