Why is a nostril always cloged up? keeps switching sides but one always is.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Need to see ENT: Clogged up nostril may suggest several different problems, including deviated nasal septum, polyps, chronic sinus disease, enlarged turbinates etc. Hence, an ENT evaluation is necessary to make sure there is no obstructive pathology. Endoscopic sinus exam is adviseable. Try saline nasal lavage to see if it helps.
