I've been having trouble with my nose getting blocked every morning, and it's leading to all this sneezing. I've also got a dry cough, and it's been keeping me from sleeping well early in the morning. What could be causing this, and what can I do about it?

I'm dealing with chronic allergic rhino sinusitis and have a deviated nasal septum with enlarged turbinates. I recently heard about something called ENS, which can happen after turbinate reduction surgery. Is it safe to go ahead and get my deviated septum fixed along with FESS without doing anything to the turbinates, or is there a risk I should be aware of?

Thats Urticaria,identify the allergen and avoid it,also visit dermatologist for appropriate management

I've been using Sudafed nasal spray that has Xylometazoline Hydrochloride for my flu and a blocked nose, and the label says to use it three times in 24 hours. Is it okay if I take a fourth dose? I'm just really struggling to breathe through my nose right now.

It is not recommended to exceed the dosage instructions on the bottle. Taking more than the recommended dose can lead to potential side effects and complications. If your symptoms persist or worsen, it is advisable to consult with a healthcare professional for further guidance.
