Stuffed Left Nostril, Thick White Mucus, Prescribed Nasal Spray. Is It Deviated Septum Issue ?

I m a 33 year old female, 5.5 feet tall & i weigh 122 pounds. I have been having stuffed nostril for quite some time now. its only the left side. and i have to blow my nose every few hours to breathe comfortably. When i blow my nose, thick white mucus comes out. I saw ENT and he prescribed a nasal spray which didnt help at all. What do i do? Do i have deviation septum issue?

Hi, Salma.
Thanks for query.
It seems that you might be having allergic rhinitis.
Put some decongestant nasal drops like Nasivion or Otrivin and take some decongestant-antihistamine tablet like Cetrizine or Diominic DA as and when required.
If there is Deviated Nasal Septum was there, ENT specialist might have told you.
Ok and bye.
