Hello
Thanks for writing to HCM
You have inflammatory changes and its sequel in both maxillary sinuses with shift of nasal septum towards right side.
Most probably it is allergic in nature and there is a polyp in left maxillary sinus.You need routine hemogram.
If you are not responding to nasal spray then surgery can be done for DNS(deviated nasal septum) and avulsion of polyp can be done.
For cough,pulmonary infection should be ruled out.
Hope i have answered your query.
Take Care
