I am having a septoplasty in a couple months time due to the fact I am struggling to breath in my right nostril, and my septum is deviated. However, recently I have noticed that my left nostril temporarily blocks but it is occurring quite frequently. With this, I have also noticed an ear ache. Due to already struggling with my breathing in my nose, it is making it extremely uncomfortable. When my gp initially checked my nose before referring me for surgery, she checked my nose for polyps but said I did not have any, I was unsure if this is what is occurring now.

If you have decided, then go ahead with surgery. But you will find, its not going to help much. Moreover of there was a polyp then your surgeon must have noticed when he/ she decided for surgery. 1. Do saline gargles daily (preferably twice). 2. Whenever possible do steam inhalation also. 3. Cover your nose and mouth with hanky for at least 30 sec when you go in dusty areas also when you go in and out of ac. As our nose is the most sensitive part of our body, when there is temperature difference between two rooms or inside n outside, then if we not protect our nose, it gets affected. 4. Drink hot liquids --hot liquids relieve nasal congestion, prevent dehydration, and soothe the uncomfortably inflamed membranes that line your nose and throat. Homeopathic treatment has very encouraging results. Consult online for details.

Even after septoplasty, you may continue to have nose block as your problem is more related to sinusitis and rhinitis. Your ear ache is due to sinusitis. The sinuses (which are cavities) connect your nose, throat and ear and establishing air circulation connecting these organs. When sinuses swell due cold or allergy, this air circulation/communication will be blocked causing nose block, ear pain and throat problem. Going for septoplasty at your age is not a good idea. Please note- even after the septoplasty you may continue to have sinusitis which in turn causes nose block, ear ache and throat pain. Better way is to treat your sinusitis and rhinitis.
