Brief Answer:
Needs Anterior Rhinoscopy.
Detailed Answer:
Hi Sir,
I can understand your concerns.
Your symptoms are suggestive of underlying nasal obstruction secondary to adenoid hypertrophy or Deviated nasal septum etc.
I advise you to get Anterior Rhinoscopy and X ray Paranasal sinuses and X ray Nasopharynx at the earliest by consulting an expert ENT specialist.
Treatment depends on the test results.
