I've had chronic nose blockages every winter since childhood, making it hard to breathe normally like others. Pills and nasal sprays give temporary relief but don't solve the problem long-term. Some doctors say it's allergies while others think it's a structural issue needing surgery. What's the best permanent fix for this?

I'm dealing with this annoying dryness in my throat and mouth every early morning around 4 or 5 am since November. I saw a doctor and had my blood sugar tested through a urine testit was normal. The meds helped for a week, but then the dryness came back. Also, I have this long-term nasal blockage since 2011 after a viral fever. I cant smell much unless my nasal passage clears up or during a cold. Plus, I catch a cold every month or two. I'm confused about who to see for this issue because online it seems like these symptoms could be throat infection, prediabetes, or sinus problems. Could you guide me on which specialist to consult and the right treatment to pursue?
consult a general physician
