Why does using Sadbindu Tel increase nasal fluid flow and cause irritation? - #55529

Sadbindu Taila is a strong Ayurvedic Nasya oil. In some people, especially those with sensitive nasal passages, allergy tendency, dust exposure, or excess aggravated Kapha, it can initially increase nasal discharge, sneezing, and irritation. This happens because the oil helps loosen and expel accumulated Kapha and irritants from the sinuses. However, severe irritation is not considered normal. It may occur due to: Excess quantity of oil Wrong timing or improper method of use Sensitive nasal mucosa or allergy Using it during active cold, sinus infection, or pollution exposure Strong potency of Sadbindu Taila for your body type Advice: Stop using it for a few days until irritation settles Later, restart with only 1–2 drops in each nostril instead of larger doses Use slightly lukewarm oil only Avoid use immediately after meals, bath, or going into dust/pollution Steam inhalation with plain water can help reduce irritation
