I seem to have water trapped in my sinuses even after 24 hours of using Sinus Rinse. When I shake my head left to right it seems like water inside. I normally have some water draining from the nose in the next hour or so after using - but is it possible for water to remain trapped for longer times? Thank you and all the best from Romania.

Nasal and sinus passages are very tortuous and not a straight, clean cavity. The solution can get trapped into crevices. I recommend that after completing the process of nasal irrigation, you tilt your head sideways which will allow the solution to be drained out as completely as possible. If you experience delayed drainage, do not rinse right before leaving your house or going to bed.
