- Sore throat and/or cough
- Tiredness or fatigue
- Puffy eyes

Conditions
- Allergic rhinitis

- Deviated septum
- Chronic Sinusitis
Treatments
- Nasal Sprays
- Steroid Tablets
- Polyp removal
- Balloon Sinuplasty – if nasal obstruction fails to respond to treatments, you may be a candidate for balloon sinuplasty. This is a small, incisionless procedure where a small catheter with a balloon on the end is placed into the nasal cavity. The balloon is inflated to help expand the sinus passage and create airflow.
- Endoscopic sinus surgery – a small endoscopic device is inserted to better view the sinus tissues to assist in the removal of polyps and tumors, as well as open blocked passage ways for sinus drainage.
- Septoplasty – straightening of the deviated septum to allow for proper nasal airflow.
