What Causes Blocked Nostril After A Septoplasty Operation?

i had 2 septoplasty operations to treat a bent septum because i had a blocked nostril 24/7. the treatment made a little difference but still feels blocked. doctor says he can do no more. i think there s more of an underlying issue further back in the nostril. is there really nothing more that can be done?

General & Family Physician 's  Response
It's the body's biological response to a surgery. Your nasal tissues are swelled and it would regress on its own in a week or two. You don't have to worry about it now you will be doing fine very soon.
