Does Deviated Septum Cause Sinusitis, Sneezing And Cold?
Question: Hello...I have a history of Sinusitis from the past 3-4 years, maybe due to Deviated Septum.
Hereby, I keep getting allergy sneeze attacks atleast once a year. This year, the sneezes started 10 days back, only at night. For the past 4 days however, it has resulted in Throat Pain and Infection, even though the sneezing subsided. Have slight cold too, with running nose only while sleeping. All the symptoms worsen during night time.

Take steam inhalation. Gurgle with lukewarm water. Take cetirizine.
Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.
I have gone very carefully through the details provided. You need to take steam inhalation. Water in the form of vapor will reach deep inside and would dilute the secretions and reduces cough, thus providing relief. You also need to gargle with lukewarm water in order to relieve the throat infection and pain. Also take some antiallergic like cetirizine once daily for a few days.
I think that the above suggestions will help.
Feel free to write back in case of further queries, if any.
