Japan has far too many cedar trees as a result of government-sponsored
monoculture. The result in an annual epidemic of allergic reactions
affecting a large portion of the population. News shows sometimes
depict the waves of pollen coming off the forests; this is shown like
a weather report, indicating the degree of suffering one can expect.
At times, the pollen itself feels something like military tear gas in
the eyes. It really can be painful.

CS does act as a mild irritant and promotes mucus flow like a mild

Sheet rock dust is fairly inert but will grow green stuff if it's wet
and
other nutrients become absorbed by it. Aromatic wood dust is especially
nasty. Just a ceder or cyprus saw dust particle 'floating' into your
eye
will produce an infection or sty. CS killed the infection in 1 1/2
days,
but I still have a small cyst where a piece of Cyprus dust got into my
eye
and became lodged there. The eye doc said it would eventually grow
through
the lid.
The aromatics don't absorb water and become soft and easily expelled
like
pine. The oils are an irritant. Fir is also a danger and is used for
trim
quite a lot. [despite being notorious for nasty hard sharp brittle
infective splinters]
The harder woods make a finer dust.
I'd guess that inhaling CS would help a bit.
The mask ain't a bad idea regardless...pain in the buttocks though.

I have used CS in a nebulizer (along with MSM and a small amount of
DMSO)
to treat asthma very successfully in my sister. She had a healing
reaction
for a few days, felt like bronchitis, but she continued and her asthma
symptoms were reduced by 80% or so.
My questions is this. My father is a carpenter who has inhaled
fumes, saw
dust, sheet rock dust, etc...for almost 40 years. Just recently he
has had
trouble breathing and needs to wear a mask on the job site to get
through
the day. He has serious congestion in the lungs from these foreign
substances that are affecting his lungs. My initital thought would be
that
CS wouldn't be able to help here because it is not bacteria/fungus
related,
but I am not sure. Could the foreign substances be allowing
bacteria/fungus to prosper thus causing the congestion. Would CS help
out
here??
Any advice would be much appreciated....
