Hello,
If your father has nose blocked all the time he need to get ENT consultation for examination of nose and if required a ct scan for nose and paranasal sinuses To see for the extent of disease.
If he has nasal disease then he might be having snoring also. And snoring increaes chances of reflux of food from stomach to food pipe .Get consultation and treatment .
