Clogged Nose, Difficulty In Breathing. Is It Due To Acid Reflux?
Lately and in the afternoon I have been getting a clogged nose and feel as if I cannot get a full breath of air. Usually it goes away after an hour or two. I had a bad episode like this two months ago and in the E.r. Room dr. Said it was due to acid reflux . I made appt. to see my dr. Next week and the to see a gastro specialist.
There are several reasons for stuffed nose. But as it is already known your stuffed nose is due to acid reflux. That is obvious. Acid reflux causes stuffed nose. But it is very simple a problem. But not acid reflux. You must consult a gastro specialist and have prescribed medication. You will be alright.
Diet is very important with acid reflux. Take care. Get well soon.
