A member asked:
My 7 year old son always has a blocked nose, for years. nothing prescribed by gp's works, surely he needs to be referred to ent for a diagnosis.?

Yes, see an ENT: You are correct he does need an ENT evaluation. It is highly likely he has obstructing adenoids and just removing them could cure him.
