Surfing and sinuses

Finally had some ridable waves come through here yesterday… my first time in the water in 9 days.

The problem is, it seems that whenever I get in the water after a lengthy time off my sinus block up the next day. It goes away after about 24 hours, but is rather annoying in the mean time. When I’m on my usual schedule, maybe 4-5 days a week, it doesn’t seem to be a problem.

Anyone else experience this? What do you do? Sure, I’d love to say that I could just get in the water every day, but the fact is there are going to be periods when I can’t get in for a week or two.

I’ve had the same problem at times. Just a mild decongestant and go on with it. If you haven’t seen rideable surf in that long, you must be my neighbor. Ride on.
