alternating nostril airway blockage - chronic | Nasal (Nose) & Sinus Problems discussions | Body & Health Conditions center

It looks to me that there can be no definite solution for everyone suffering from these symptoms. In other words, there can be no "one size fits all" solution. What I figured out so far is that my night congestion issue directly related to my digestive system. Something that I eat triggers inflammation and, consequently, light edema. And this is the reason I am getting early morning nasal congestion. So far, I suspect that eggs (in any form) will give me this reaction. I excluded eggs from my diet 3 days ago. It might take 2-3 weeks to see the results. Will let you know. Also, extra salt before going to bed might help in my case, since salt can take care of edema.

I had this problem for years with no solution but recently had my mercury fillings out and replaced with composite and every day my breathing gets better, nearly fully cured :)
If u have silver/mercury fillings get them out.

Haven't found the cure yet, but the docs have told me this is an Allergic issue.
I am allergic to dust mites so I am trying the allergy treatment for dust mites. It's a long process, I had given once after 3months, now have started again and will continue for a year max.

Alternately, I am considering re-locating to places with minimal air-dust like Australia, etc.

How about you, dod you get any cure ?

I had a surgery for a deviated septum and it still didn't fix the problem.

Negative... the nasal cycle shouldn’t normally be noticed. This condition is quite noticeable.

Had similar issue from past 3-4 months. One nostril works fine at a time while other blocks 50%. Same get altered after 6-7 hrs.. other nostril becomes active and the active one gets blocked 50%.

ENT suggested me to go for septoplasty as their is some deviation in one side. However, I 'm 2 weeks past septoplasty but, dosen't able to observe anything new. The same is happening now also.

So, it's not a septum deviation problem ..it's something else.

I have suffered from blocked noses all my life. The blockage alternates one side 80% other 5%. Running alleviates blockage only to return when stopped. Had septoplatsy, turbinate reduction and nassl passage widening all to no effect. The more blocked one dsy the less it is the next. Been tested positvely for dust and grass allergy but indicated only a moderste allergt.I have no answer and doctors look at me like im exagerating symptoms. No idea what to do next. I will try immunisation but am not confident

I have the same problem for over 2 years now and am based in Africa. Please these are the things you have to do to be relieved. Avoid drinking anything cold be in water, eat onion every day, avoid dairy products, bath with warm water, avoid catching cold or stay under Ac and exercise regularly. Please remember to always pray because God is the ultimate healer

I've had alternate-block-nostrils-as-soon-as-I-lie-down all my life. I am 75, healthy, jogger+tennis player.
I used OTRIVIN drops multiple times each day & night (I am a professional Pilot and feared a punctured eardrum each time I ascended or descended through varying atmospheric pressures) from 1968 to 1975. In 1979. my friend's mother in Kolkata, India, noticed my problem. The next day she produced a Homeopathic folded-paper dose of some unknown (to me) medicine. I thought that would be a waste of effort, but swallowed the medicine out of deference to the elderly lady. Shockingly, that single dose cured me completely. I never had that problem again. Now 37 or 38 years later, the problem has begun to recur. My saviour lady is long gone, and I am trolling the world's Homeopathic websites to find someone - anyone - who might know of another Homeopath who might cure me. So don't believe the nonsense that alternate blocking nostrils is a 'normal' phenomena. It is not I know. I have lived it.
