I'm about a month post-septoplasty, and my nose still keeps getting blocked. Sometimes it's the left nostril, and other times it's the right one. Why does this keep happening, and when can I expect things to get back to normal?

I'm really struggling with a chronic dry cough that's been bothering me for 23 years now. I have these intense coughing fits and throat irritation at least 10 times a day, and it's really getting to me mentally and even makes my muscles hurt. I don't smoke or drink and my chest X-ray was all clear. They've found DNS and sinusitis through a nasal endoscopy, and I can't help but wonder if they're causing the chronic cough. I've tried meds for GERD and allergies, and while cough medicine helps a bit, the cough always comes back just as strong. Could you please share some insights because I'm really at a loss here?

take treatment for sinusitis, reduce the infection.

My 5-year-old daughter has adenoid hypertrophy measuring 2.4x2.2 cm and keeps getting frequent colds and coughs. The doctor recommended surgery but I'm worried can this be treated with medicines instead? I'd like to avoid surgery if possible, what are our options?

If she is getting symptoms like mouth breathing and snoring, recurrent ear infection, it's better to go for surgery adenoidectomy.
