Hi,

You need to visit an ENT specialist again; the previous visit was years ago. Your complaints could be indicative of a sinus disease. The nasal structures are extremely complex and nothing can be substantiated by your description alone. Sometimes the doctor would have to rule out polyps, any other growths etc in the nose too. As there are many sinus cavities and structures where the infection and disease can enter, outward manifestations may be delayed.

Visit an ENT for a thorough clincial examination; along with some more endoscopic and radiology tests if required will be conducted by the specialist.
