Sebaceous Cysts in Nose

Slice a Garlic clove in half, rub the juice on the cyst only (not the health skin). Wait 10 minutes then wash it off with a wash rag. Repeat everyday for about 10 days and it will heal.

A friend of mine had one on his shoulder and did this treatment with the garlic and it took 10 days.

Hi Debbie,

Hope you found a remedy that cleared the sinus cysts. I am interested to know if the oils (castor and coconut), Manuka honey or the raw garlic you tried worked since these remedies often clear various sinus issues including cysts.

Here are a few other ideas to consider.

SALT THERAPY

A couple years ago my husband saw an ENT for "stuffy" sinuses who told me that he discovered a natural remedy, hot salt water flushes, that significantly improved or cleared various sinus infections (e.g., cysts) in his patients. He was surprised at how effective it was and now regularly "prescribes" it.

He was prescribed "salt therapy" & an antibiotic ointment to apply just inside the inner lining of my nostrils at bedtime. My symptoms cleared after 2-3 months and my nose actually became smaller. Though, he also included daily DE rubs inside his nose (probably unnecessary) which also drew out "stuff, do not breathe DE into lungs.

The ENT mentioned he was seeing increasing numbers of unusual parasitic & ectoparasitic infections in his patients causing various sinus symptoms which salt therapy could work well for.

Examples of parasitic sinus symptoms: cysts, scabs, sores, tenderness, flakiness, pain/inflammation, bleeding, "debris", chronic itching, movement sensations, skin discolorations or other skin changes, "enlarged" nose tissues - external & internal, various bacterial/fungal co-infections, eventual possible cancer development, etc.

In general, SALT acts as a "drawing" agent, an antimicrobial, an antiparasitic and as a desiccant - so, it draws out and dries out some pathogenic organisms.

He kept the treatment simple and said to use a Neti Pot, the Navage or something similar, 2-4x/day, 10-15+ minute sessions, minimum. Use warm-hot water. Can start with a low concentration (1 tsp/8 oz water, dissolved) & build up to higher concentrations (1 tsp/4 oz water) - to tolerance. Use purified salt to avoid impurities (heavy metals, mold spores).

Optional antimicrobials can be added to the saline solution (e.g.s: iodine; baking soda; borax/boric acid; various essential oils - thieves blend, eucalyptus, peppermint, oregano/thyme, etc; anti-parasitics - herbal or pharmaceutical; & other compounds).

NOTE: if liquid up the nose is too unbearable, one could also try the traditional "Salt Pipe" - 15 minutes, 4x/day or more. This is used for sinusitis, respiratory disorders and mold illness.

The ENT also includes 1-2 other treatments, if needed:

1. HOCL (hypochlorous acid) - sinus flushes or sprays, 3-6x/day - flood the sinuses until fluid drains down the throat, spit this out. Clears infections, reduces pain/inflammation and promotes rapid tissue healing. HOCL solutions are also saline.

2. ANTIBIOTIC OINTMENTS - applied to the opening of the nostrils at bedtime to prevent some pathogens or insects from causing infections (such as very small parasitic flys or gnats) and to boost additional antimicrobial effects.

OTHER OINTMENTS:

BORAX/BORIC ACID - Sometimes, for nasal pain and additional antimicrobial boost he had the patient apply traditional boric acid sinus ointments during the day, between salt flushes, such as:

BORIC ACID OINTMENT 10% U.S.P. (e.g., SCOTT Davis Products, Pomada, Chamosyn, De La Cruz, various pharmacies, etc. - contains 10% boric acid & white petrolatum - some brands also include menthol, eucalyptus, sulfur and/or zinc oxide).

BOROLEUM For Nasal Soreness/analgesic/skin protectant by SANTUS (camphor 1%, menthol 0.54% from peppermint essential oil, white petrolatum 97%, eucalyptol from eucalyptus essential oil, methyl salicylate from wintergreen essential oil, boric acid 3%). There are other brands.

NOTE: Boric acid ointments have been used to address biofilm formation, bacterial/viral/fungal infections and hyphal transformation of Candida albicans and a topical antiseptic. Used for acne, fungal infections, burns, wounds, etc.

CALMOSEPTINE Ointment (Calamine, Chlorothymol, Glycerin, Phenol, Sodium Bicarbonate, Thymol). Mix in boric acid.

3. NOSE TOPICALS - applied to the skin all over the exterior of the nose and over the sinus areas (sinus zones located to the sides of the nose, nose bridge and lower forehead/brow areas) so that infection(s) are treated both internally and externally.

Examples: HOCL spray or gel, boric acid creams, 3% Ivermectin or Fenbendazole creams; DMSO w/antibiotics; hot salt packs 2x/day; 2% salicylic acid/10% sulfur cream; DMSO with Frankincense ointment; EmuaidMax ointment; various essential oils with either neem, black cumin seed or jojoba carrier oils.

Can also use Ivermectin cream inside the nose, daily.

Best wishes,
