I have a tendencey to over do it , By the end of the day I am clogged and can’t breath thru my nose. must be the time of the year though, allegies. I use big pinches of schmalzers and there is no menthol in those. my nose just closes off and and can’t breath thru it. I blow it, get the snuff out but still am clogged. then I use snus till bed. What am I doing wrong? lol edm
Do you use anything for the allegies? Tablets or nasal spray etc? Schmalzers and menthols clog me up something rotten, I almost exclusively use SPs and since I started doing that I have had no problems with my nose.
schmalzers clog me up too. Which is natures way of keeping me from useing the whole bag in a day. 
Clariatin D, love that sudahefadrine (sp)
pseudoephedrin?
yeap can’t spell worth a crap, but I can make a Cummins 6.7 sing, lol. edm
Using Schmalzer all day is probably the best way to get congestion from snuff as it is very heavy. Most people, even old, old timers will get bunged up if they over do it. Like all tobacco, moderation is the key. However much we love the stuff, a pinch of snuff is a few thousand foreign bodies up the hooter. There are two ways to combat this; use less schmalzer or switch to a drier plainer snuff. With something like a HDT or Scotch, without too much flavouring, you will find you have far less congestion. You don’t have to stop the Schmalzer but it looks like you willl have to limit it a bit. Getting into nasal de-congestionts to enable you to take snuff is not a great idea as every type but the steroid sprays will give you rebound congestion after about 10 days and you will find that you need them to breathe in the end. Some people use neti pots to clean out their sinuses but I’ve found what I personally think is a much better product - Sterimar sea water nasal douche (horrible term) Its in an aerosol and very easy to use. But I think you can solve this by altering your snuff habit, Schmalzer is very easy to take for a new snuffer and the dry snuffs are not but if you persevere with them it will pay off:)
Where do you find the Sterimar sea water nasal douche Snuffster? Despite the horrific sounding name it’s something I might be interested in trying if easily available. I’ve not used a neti pot either, as I’m not sure where to get one or if I’d get on with it.
I have used AYR saline nasal spray, that’s avalible at Walmart if your in the states. edm
I believe it’s my allergies, Haven’t used any snuff since 10:00pm CST last night and I’m Still stuffed up. Will have to buy somemore Clarotin D tomarrow after I get paid. edm
I’m UK based for now, but will have a look out for the saline sprays when I’m out again. I might try the teaspoon of saltwater thing at some point to see if that’s any help. On topic: At least it’s not entirely the snuffs fault for causing the congestion then
well maybe, has cleared up this afternoon, been using McChrystals sp 2 times since lunch it’s 3 pm here and I’m still clear. Probilby a combo of shmalzers and hay fever lol. edm
@mustangii: I dont have any know allergies (not to speak about tobacco-related ones XD) and my nose shut-up too if i use too much Schmalzer - i personally guess, it is just the heavy stuff it is. Aside from that, imho there are snuffs which close the nose after a few pinches and then is the moment to fight this with some “blowing” stuff. Ever head some fresh Mavrick for example ?? I cant imagine a nose which will not run and blow out from this. XD Just my 2 cents since i am drunk right now. Sorry for blabla-post.
I love schmalzler, but I find I don’t get the full flavour if I use it all the time. Lovely stuff to contrast with other things. I’ve done a lot of swimming. Most evenings before bed I just cup my hands and breath the tap water up my nose. From swimming I’m not bothered by water up the nose and I can control it, bubbling away and then just snort it out. If I have taken a menthol before this operation it is all to no avail and a bunged up snout while you ar
A bunged up nose is inevitable and horrible…
The spray was just in a local chemist shop, I dont know what their distribution is.
