Benefits of technology

The present invention relates to a method of preventing sinusitis, specifically chronic sinusitis, by applying chlorine dioxide to the sinus area and adjacent tissues. Chlorine dioxide has been found to have antiseptic properties and helps alleviate symptoms associated with sinusitis. The method involves delivering effective amounts of chlorine dioxide to the affected areas via various means like nasal sprays, aerosols, etc. Additionally, the inventors discovered that adding specific ingredients like ribose and cinnamic aldehyde along with sodium chlorite increased the longevity of chlorine dioxide exposure. Overall, the technical effect of the invention provides a convenient way to protect against sinusitis while promoting better health.

Problems solved by technology

The technical problem addressed in this patent text is how to effectively treat and prevent chronic sinusitis, a chronic inflammatory condition of the upper respiratory system caused by multiple factors including infectious agents, environmental triggers, and autoimmunity. Current treatment options involve anti-inflammatory drugs, but they often require long-term usage and can result in resistance among certain strains of microorganisms. Additionally, existing methods tend to focus only on reducing symptomatic effects rather than addressing the root cause of the illness.

examples

[0120]To treat sinusitis, sore throat or a cold, one aspect of the present method is directed to gargling the throat with antiseptic ClO2 solution, i.e. a ClO2 mouthwash, and then following up the gargling (within a period of no more than several hours, and preferably just after gargling) with spraying each nostril with the solution. The total nasal / oral airway then will be cleared of most microoganisms at the same time, and very likely, many offending immune cells. The nasal passages will start to drain quickly after treatment. An infection will produce a tingle or burning sensation after application for 5 or 10 seconds.

[0121]The application time and approximate quantities in a preferred embodiment are exemplified as follows:

1. One cup is filed with about 15 ml of Part A, which comprises essentially a solution of sodium chlorite, and another cup with acid solution (preferably containing a disproportionation agent, such as a sugar, in particular, ribose), Part B, 15 ml. Make sure th...
