I dont mean to gross anyone out.....but....

When I dive my sinuses drain like there is no tomorrow. And, with a
non purge mask that is a bear.

I was wondering if anyone else out there had this kind of sinus problem...
has a purge mask....and does it work clearing out the sinus mess???

Figured it was worth a shot asking.
All have a safe and happy holiday....RICHinNC....who is actually in Korea right now.
 
Yes...as long as you have one of the larger purges and not one of the little button purge valves. If "things" get hug up, you can flood the mask and then blow all the water out the purge to "flush" it.
 
I picked up the nickname "Booger Bob" on one job I was on, the only thing worse than having your nose run a lot is having "buddies" that don't tell you when there is a batch in your mustache.
I use a non purge & just blast things out the bottom as needed.
 
Have you tried Sudafed?

I take a generic form of PSE when I'm diving air, not on Nitrox!
