Blocked nose
Hi
I having blocked nose since few days.
If I blow my nose white mucus is coming out , but in few seconds again my nose is getting blocked.
When I wake up in the morning, my nose is totally blocked and remains the same through out the day , with some relief for few minutes in a day.
It have tried using otrivin, it's helping but only for few minutes / hours.
Well I don't have fever or any congestion in my chest.
What should I do ?
