My friend has polyp problems and cannot smell or taste. With surgery to remove them his taste and smell returned for only one week. A few years later they put him on prednisone and again his taste and smell returned but for one month only. Will the Sinus Rinse improve his smell and taste? Thank you.

There is no promise or claim but it is worth a try. Our anecdotal reports show that lot of users claim an improvement in the sense of smell and at times taste. Again, we are not claiming this. The risk of nasal rinsingis minimal and patients with polyps do need rinsing based on the medical literature available today.
