There are two options depending on the severity and the recourrence of your disease
If its mind- then you can go for oral steroids, nasal spray and decongestants.
But if it occurs again n again - then u can go for ET catheterization.

You might be having Patulous ETD, which can present with same symptoms, but is difficult to treat by medication. Obstruction in ETD usually responds well to medication.
