Hi! I'm really concerned because at 1 mo post op, my right nostril was stuffed and my surgeon prescribed me Clarityne for 1 mo. It improved (but not at all), after it I have b issues again. At 3 mo he prescribed me Prednisone for 10 days at high doses and Clarityne (helped while taking), the right turbinate was big. Right now I cannot breathe from both of my nostrils. Sometimes they "open" from their stuffiness and I can. What are other possibilities of my breathing issues? What can I do next?
