Cocaine Too much cocaine use?

[TheJakerz]

So I really hope someone is able to help me. I just have a few concerns, I'm not sure if it's just regular symptoms or if I should be worried.
Okay, if you compare to other people I probably don't snort all that much. A gram will last me about a week and I'll do 2-5 decent sized lines a day. However, The last couple weeks I've been super congested, like I absolutely cannot breath out of my nose. I've resorted to putting Carolina Reaper hot sauce on my tongue to clear up my sinuses even if my mouth is on fire and only last a few minutes. And it only ever seems to be one nostril that I can't breath out of. Also whenever I'm trying to "work small" (clipping nails, writing etc.) my hands with tremble and twitch, also with that my hands are always super hot a sweaty. My main concern is just my nose, it's so hard to breathe man it sucks. My worst fear would be like a hole in my septum or whatever, I'm just hoping someone out there can help, even if it's just a little bit. I should also let my basic stature be known. Male/19/like 5'6"/110 lbs

I had similar issues, however my consumption was quarter ounce a week (sharing). My nose quickly became a host to all manner of maladies - blood, stoppage, mucus, runny nose, nasal-y voice, etc.

Potential Remedies For You That I Used:

Whenever you’re about to blow down, walk to the sink, take your dominant hand and place your index and middle finger under the faucet, wet them generously. Bring those fingers to your nostrils and insufflate, repeat as needed to lubricate nose.

Also, invest in a Netty Pot to wash sinuses once or twice a week.

Last resort, acetone wash your girl.

Also if you plan to keep using, stop blocking one of your nostrils. Pros like myself take a bill or straw and just breathe the powder in, hammering a nostril will disrupt natural flow. Too many times have I seen neophytes or stubborn casual users waste my good powder by using a blocked nostril or holding one closed just for it to fall to the ground.

Let me know if any of that works. You’re young so your septum at that age and amount of use still has a good career ahead of it if you’re smart and considerate to your physiology.

Super duper helpful! I just want to take necessary precautions and make sure I haven't made any irreversible mistakes or changes. I really appreciate your insight thank you. Also will now NOT be closing one nostril lol

If you have a line, flush your nose with nasal spray or cup your hands and snort some warm water. You want to get caustic cocaine residue out of your sinuses.

Using coke every day is too much. Please reduce your use!

yeah you should always give your nose a good rinse at the end of the day, but 2-5 lines and a gram lasting a week, i think your use isn't that bad... i can easily smoke through 20 grams+ in a week, infact its hard not to somtimes, ahh i can always count on seeing coke posts the day before i pickup

Okay OP, you're in great luck, because I am a professional sinus infection sufferer. I swear I have like 3 a year and usually they're treated outpatient, but at least 2 have required surgery to fix. I've been around the block and what it sounds like is that you have a sinus infection. You're not using a shit-ton of Cocaine, so while I'm not ruling out a hole in your septum, I doubt that this is the culprit.

Either way, I think your best bet is to consult your medical provider and simply say you are having the symptoms that you have stated here. There's no way that they can get any further than believing that you might be using Cocaine unless you fail a UA or something. You might be referred to an Ear, Nose and Throat specialist who might then conduct a nasal flush, which is often a general anesthesia situation. if it is truly severe, it could require essentially boring a hole through your existing septum to make it drain better i.e. creating a new septum.

So while the doc is my first choice for this, there are numerous treatments that can be experimented with first:

- Neti Pot: If I'm not mistaken yogi's have been doing it for centuries and prescribe it even to those not suffering from any illness; just respecting the yoga tenet of keeping clean.

- Fluticasone (Flonase): an OTC drug that can help tremendously. I use it intermittently myself when shit acts up.

- Navage - This cool new product that uses a combination of injection and suction of saline through one nostril and out the other. My ENT thinks it's the greatest, but I haven't bothered yet as I haven't had symptoms for a bit.

-Steam: Any way that you can get it, either through the shower, a lightly simmering pot of water or what have you. Although it's a temp fix it still can be very soothing.

- Sleeping in a more upright position can help by gravity naturally causing all that gunk to flow downward instead of getting stuck in your sinuses.

I used salt water sniffed up clogged nose.
Usually it was the cut to much coke that did thst to my nose.
There is freebase but don't do that
