Best Doctors for Nose Block in Banjara Hills, Hyderabad

The nasal passages are lined by a membrane that secretes mucus. This membrane is sensitive to a lot of things and becomes swollen, puffy and irritated causing a nose block. Nose block or nasal congestion can be a result of common colds and flu but may vary. Allergies can cause the immune system to over react and close off the nasal passages with inflammatory response. Acute or chronic sinusitis can also result in the swelling of not just the nose but the entire upper respiratory tract. Lifestyle habits like smoking and alcohol can form a pathway resulting in a stuffed nose. Nasal polyps are small over growths in the nasal cavity that can cause constant irritation to the canals. Non allergic rhinitis with hay fever like symptoms is sometimes triggered with exposure to irritants like dust, dry air or sudden changes in weather. All of these can be attributed to nose block and discomfort.
