I'm struggling with nasal congestion and its making it kind of hard to breathe properly. Do you have any suggestions for home remedies that might help with this? Maybe something I can try out to ease the discomfort?

Your sneezing response to cold stimuli is known as "cold-induced sneezing" or "photic sneezing reflex." It's a relatively rare condition.
To manage symptoms:
- Avoid sudden exposure to cold temperatures
- Wear protective gear (gloves, scarf) in cold weather
- Use saline nasal sprays to moisturize nasal passages
- Consider over-the-counter antihistamines or decongestants
Consult a doctor or allergist for further guidance and diagnosis.

I've been dealing with sinusitis for years and had a septoplasty back in 2014 for a deviated septum, but I still get frequent sinus headaches and occasional nose blocks. The doctor also recommended functional balloon sinus surgery back then could that help with my ongoing issues or are there other treatments I should consider?
