In my town, doctors refer to it as the "Denver drip," but of course the "Chicago crud" or "Manhattan mucus" serve just as well. In fact, that decidedly unpleasant, back-of-the-throat, thick-as-molasses post nasal drainage is simply your sinuses, endlessly trying to empty themselves. What with clogged heads, tickly coughs, constant nose blowing, and voices perpetually needing a "harrumph!" to clear them, it's little wonder that sinus sufferers are willing to undergo repeated surgeries for temporary relief. Or borrow somebody's old antibiotics. Or fantasize about plunging a Craftsman power drill up their nostrils.

If you're looking for a comforting thought in all this, I can tell you that you're probably not going to die from chronic sinus problems. On the other hand, don't look for sinusitis to enrich your life much, either. Instead, let's see how our WholeHealth Chicago approach can help.
