since last two years onwards I am suffering from severe cold.I take breath from one hole of nose at one time, few time from the left and few from the right hole of nose, recently I gone through my health check up where doctor has advised me to get some tests like X-ray PNS
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have severe cold which could be due to upper respiratory track infection specially viral infection abd it could be sinusitis. I would suggest you to do warm saline gargles and betadine gargles alternatively , avoid eating spicy and heavy food and consult ENT specialist for proper examination . Doctor may order throat swab test , vial culture test and blood test . Doctor may prescribe anti viral ( acyclovir ) along with anti inflammatory Levocetrizine. Doctor may also refer you to gastroenterologist if he/she find problem to be related with acid reflux .
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon. Best Wishes, Dr. Harry Maheshwari
