I don't have any allergies, but I have always been congested unilaterally 2nd to septal deviation. I had surgery 3 weeks ago and took out the plastic struts today. I'm still congested and I feel this is turbinate related because it temporarily responds to saline irrigation. How long should I wait to see if turbinates shrink back to normal before turbinectomy? Thank you
