I just found out I have mild DNS on the right side of my nose and my bilateral inferior turbinates are hypertrophied. What does all this mean for my breathing or overall nose health? Is this something I should be worried about, and are there any treatments I should consider? I'm a bit concerned about how this might affect me day-to-day.
