Suggest Remedy For Breathing Issues When Having Growth On Nostril Bone

Nasal Bone Increase (left Nostril ) Hi Doc, I am a 24 years old male. I have been experiencing left nostril bone growth for past many years (late2007). I can feel a bump inside on the upper side of my nostril whereas the lower part seems to be open. The right side nostril is clear. When I pull the fatty tissue of the left side nostril the breathing is pleasant and gives me relief. However I avoid doing that due to the fear of increasing the tissue which might further block the pathway. The breathing is normal in summers but in winters it gives me lot of problems especially due to dry mucus . The problem worsens when there is dust or smoke in the air. lately, I also feel slight loss of smell. Kindly advice. Does the bone keeps increasing with age? What may happen if I dont get it operated for a long time? Finally is there any cure for this in homeopathy? Thanks

Hello,

The symptoms suggest that there is some growth in nasal cavity which is increasing in size. Presence of dry mucus and loss of smell could be due to underlying allergic process which is responsible for the symptoms. I suggest you to consult an ENT specialist for clinical assessment, relevant investigations and thus management.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
