I had a nasty bump on my nose from an arm a few weeks ago. It was sore but now my sinuses are blocked continually on that side. I have been using a nasal rinse from the chemist and dont want to take antibiotics in case of c-diff flare up. WHat can I do to help it.

hello

If there is a sinus infection , it is advisable you meet your doctor and start on a course of antibiotics. Please dont be concerned as many antibiotics dont cause a c-diff flare up and can be taken safely. meanwhile please continue your nasal rinse as it will give relief.

Thanks
