Patient's Query
Hi doctor,
I have enlarged turbinates in the right nostril. I have fatigue with some gut issues. My nose is stuffy with clear discharge. From this, what would recommend for me and how much to be taken? I have these issues for the past two months and I feel hard to sleep.
Hi,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
You have difficulty while sleeping at night. It suggests that you might be suffering from obstructive sleep apnea. Your weight seems to be high. You need to do a complete physical examination before reaching a definitve diagnosis. I suggest you reduce your weight and sleep at night with two pillows. For nasal congestion, you can do Vicks (Eucalyptus oil with Thymol) steam inhalation. You can also use Avamys nasal spray (Fluticasone furoate) twice a day.
