Stuffy nose
A stuffy nose; almost everyone suffers from it. Some occasionally, while others have their nose (chronically) closed. A stuffy nose is caused by swelling of the mucous membranes in the nose. In addition, the mucous membranes make extra mucus, which quickly clogs the nose.
Clearing a blocked nose
The reason that the mucous membranes start to swell can have several causes. Think of a cold (virus). Because this is the most common reason, people often say ‘I have a cold’ when the nose is full of mucus. However, there are many more reasons why you can suffer from a stuffy nose. Think of allergies, hay fever and a hypersensitivity of the mucous membranes.
Common cold
short cold
The common cold is a virus that is especially visible in the autumn and winter months. Such a cold often goes away on its own and the nose is cleared again.
For a quick solution, a nasal spray based on xylometazoline is often chosen. The nasal spray ensures that the swelling of the mucous membranes decreases. Usually one can quickly breathe freely through the nose again. If this nasal spray is not used for more than 5-7 days, it is a great solution. If the cold lasts longer or if you prefer to use a natural solution, choose Capsinol.
long cold
If the cold lasts longer than 7 days, stop using the xylometazoline nasal spray. When such a nasal spray is used for more than 7 days, the nose can become dependent on it. Capsinol nasal spray offers a good alternative. Capsinol doesn’t just fight the symptoms (which xylometazoline does). Its effect is based on the salt and xylitol that shrink the mucous membrane. All products contain ‘pepper’ (Capsicum annuum tincture) which gives a pungent effect in the nose. In this way the resistance of the nose is built up for a longer period of time.
Note: It may take longer before the effect is noticeable (up to 2 weeks). It also sometimes happens that the nose is a little more closed at first. Really give Capsinol some time.
Allergy (hay fever)
Many people suffer from allergies, such as animal hair, dust mites and pollen. In these cases, Capsinol does not solve the allergy problem itself. It can, however, reduce additional complaints, such as (temporarily) clearing the blocked nose.
Capsinol Mild Formula is the best choice for hay fever. This formula contains feverfew to support the nasal mucosa.
Hypersensitive mucous membranes (idiopathic rhinitis)
In addition to allergic nasal symptoms, there can also be a hypersensitivity of the mucous membranes without an identifiable cause. The nose reacts directly to substances from outside without there being an allergy. Due to this hypersensitivity, people often have chronic nasal complaints, such as a stuffy or runny nose. This can also spread to the cavities. This can cause a sinus infection or sinus infection.
Especially with this hypersensitivity (called ‘idiopathic rhinitis’ in medical terms), Capsinol nasal spray can really offer a solution. This makes the nose less sensitive to dust and therefore will not quickly become clogged.
Result in the longer term
When Capsinol takes effect well, you no longer need a nasal spray for a longer period of time. A chronic stuffy nose is then a thing of the past. This effect can often last up to a year (and even longer).
How fast and how long it works varies greatly per person/nose. For one person, Capsinol really offers a long-term solution, the other continues to use it with some regularity. We cannot estimate this in advance; it really depends on the nose and less on the type of complaints. In any case, it is important to give Capsinol a little longer a chance. It can take up to 2 weeks before real results are noticeable.
We are pleased that Capsinol has already been able to help many people. People who have often searched in vain for a solution for years and have finally found it with the use of Capsinol.
