Gruhadhoomadi choornam - #2535
For the past couple of months, I’ve been struggling with sinus congestion and headaches that seem to get worse in the evenings. A friend recommended gruhadhoomadi choornam, saying it’s effective for clearing nasal passages and reducing head heaviness. I’ve never used Ayurvedic medicines for sinus problems, so I’m curious to know more about how it works. From what I understand, gruhadhoomadi choornam is a powder that’s used for external application or inhalation. Is it meant to be used as a snuff, or do you mix it with something before using it? I also read that it helps with kapha-related issues—does that mean it’s particularly good for chronic congestion or just temporary relief? Another thing I want to know is whether gruhadhoomadi choornam has any side effects. I’ve been dealing with dry nasal passages due to overuse of decongestant sprays, and I don’t want to irritate them further. Is it safe for someone with sensitive sinuses, and how often can it be used? If anyone has tried gruhadhoomadi choornam, I’d love to hear how it worked for you. Did it help with long-term sinus relief or just immediate symptoms? Any tips on using it effectively would be great!
