Hi,
welcome to healthcare magic..
i had gone through your question..there could be many causes for nasal block..like deviated septum, large turbinate ..the cause has to be found treat accordingly for better and long term relief.
YES THE NASAL DROPS LIKE NASOVION, OTRIVIN SHOULD NOT BE USED FOR MORE THAN 7 DAYS..this will lead to more blockage..
nothing to worry consult an ENT surgeon and get an evaluation so that the primary cause for block can be treated and you can get complete and long term relief..
Hope i have answered your question..if you have any further questions you can write to me on healthcare magic. wish you a good health..take care.
