Consistent Stuffy Nose

2017-09-11 20:07:30
All day, every day, I have a stuffy nose that is not related to being sick or due to allergies. It gets worse at night when I lay down, even when I elevate my head. I have tried Breathe Right nasal strips, nasal spray, and nasal decongestants. Nothing seems to work and I'm having difficulty sleeping due to it

Persistent nasal block can be due to deviated nasal septum, chronic rhinosinusitis, nasal polyps, hypertrophy of turbinate etc. Diagnosis needs to be confirmed by diagnostic nasal endoscopy or CT SCAN of nose and paranasal sinuses
Next Steps
Consult nearby ENT specialist for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required
