A member asked:
I had septoplasty surgery but my right nostril is still stuffy. it's been 3 months. i was given prescription allergy spray, and that doesn't help!

Prob should call ENT: first thing I would do is call surgeon since an allergy probably wouldn't just cause congestion on one side of the nose. If they check you and say not related to surgery, then see an Allergist
