Nose blockage
Hello
I have problem of nose blockage, i don't have running nose, i have difficulty in breathing because of which i can't sleep. I have been to doctors, some of them suggested operation of sinusitis but i want to avoid it as sinusitis grow again after 2-3 years. My x ray shows mucus on forehead just above eye brows and near nose. I have to do forced breathing thats why is is also difficult to do pranayaam. I am taking steam daily but cant see any progressive result. It is creating lot of problems, please suggest something.
