Continued Nose Blockage

2018-01-05 06:58:29
I am having stuffed nose problem since 4 years. especially in Winter season, everyday in the morning, my nose gets blocked for around 3-4 hours. When i consulted a doctor, he told me to go for Thermoplasty. How safe it is? and is it really necessary? Please throw some light into this. Thanks in advance.

You seem to be suffering from allergic rhinitis which requires long term treatment with anti Histamine medicines and steroid nasal sprays. Thermoplasty is not used to treat this condition and you need to take second opinion for confirmation of diagnosis
Next Steps
Consult nearby ENT specialist for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required
