Nasal digression

Margaret,
  The saline solution goes in one side and out the other, softening the
mucous lining so that it blows out very easily. (Most neti pots come with
instructions.)
  It may initially present you with a peculiar feeling, but soon you get
used to it and actually start looking forward to it every evening--to the
extent that going to sleep without your neti is like going to sleep without
brushing your teeth.
  The inside of your head feels like you've been swimming in the ocean.
  Patterson
