I think everyone read the thread in BOTB About reducing nasal congestion with hydrocortisone.
The downside of this method is that hydrocortisone can be absorbed and enter the systemic bloodstream, which leads to a disruption in the HPA axis and an increase in cortisol levels.
I found a topical corticosteroid that has minimal bioavailability outside the skin (<1%). It also causes skin sensitivities much more strongly (That's what we need, it's what triggers the thinning of the dermis).
This corticosteroid is fluticasone. It comes in the form of an ointment and can be purchased at a pharmacy.
I only recently found it, so it's worth researching this topic more, but the potential is colossal.
If the topic is working, we're waiting for an update @Sadist
