View allI had COVID last year and for the past six months, I've been dealing with constant nasal blockage because my turbinates are swollen, as confirmed by my ENT. I've tried all the medications the doctor suggested, but nothing has worked. Right now, I'm just using saline drops to manage the blockage. Is surgery the only option left for swollen turbinates, or could allergy shots help? Also, does turbinate surgery increase the risk of empty nose syndrome?
Swollen turbinates causing nasal blockage can be treated with medications like nasal sprays and antihistamines, and allergy shots may also be helpful, but surgery is sometimes necessary. Turbinate surgery carries a risk of "empty nose syndrome" (ENS), especially if too much tissue is removed

I've been feeling like I constantly need to clear my throat, it's been happening for the last five days and it's starting to bother me. I wonder if it might be related to some kind of gastric reflux, but I'm not really sure. There hasn't been any coughing or a cold involved, so I'm a bit puzzled about what's going on. Any ideas on what could be causing this?
Your persistent need to clear your throat, without cough or cold, could be related to gastric reflux, as stomach acid can flow up into the throat, causing irritation and mucus production, but other possibilities include allergies, sinus issues, or environmental irritants, so consider consulting an ENT specialist or a gastroenterologist to determine the underlying cause and appropriate treatment.
