One side of nose is always blocked

2018-04-19 10:54:42
One side if my nose is always blocked. Usually the right side, ocassionally on the left. My ENT suggested a ct scan, the report said I have inferior turbine hypertrophy and a deviated septum towards right. Afterwards I was given decongestants and saline spray to be taken for 3 months. I wanted to know if there is a natural way to keep the nose unblocked. What changes are required in lifestyle to keep this in check.

Yes, continue saline nasal washes lifelong. If, however, the blocking worsens, it is time to get corrective surgery.
