I'm struggling with a really bad cough because of what I think is post-nasal drip from allergies, and I'm not sure who to see. Should I go to an ENT specialist or is a pulmonologist better for something like this? I'm just trying to figure out the best route for treatment.

View allI'm really curious about how nasal congestion might impact oxygen levels in the body. Is it possible that having a stuffy nose could actually reduce how much oxygen my body is getting? I'm a bit worried about this and would love to understand it better.
Yes, nasal congestion can decrease oxygen saturation levels, as it reduces airflow through the nasal passages, leading to reduced oxygen intake, which can cause a drop in oxygen saturation levels, especially in individuals with pre-existing respiratory conditions, such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) or sleep apnea.

I've been experiencing something a bit concerning tonight. I sneezed a few times and then noticed small amounts of blood mixed with mucus and saliva for about 5 minutes before it stopped. I'm not sure if this is something I should be worried about. Can you tell me if this is normal or if I should be doing anything about it?

I'm dealing with polypoid mucosal thickening in both my left and right maxillary sinuses, and I'm trying to wrap my head around what exactly this means for me. Plus, I've got CVID and keep having infections in my sinuses and chest. What kind of treatment options should I be considering?
as it is polypoid and bothering you visit your ENT docotor and get it removed through a surgical procedure called FESS,no need to worry its curable.
