Cough it out: likely cough it out. If it was a lot u would likely have a mild choking sensation. Coughing is a natural defense mechanism of the body.

I am 26 weeks pregnant. Two weeks ago I had a runny nose that seemed to get better. However, last week I noted that I had a lot of phlegm and bloody mucus. Now both my nostrils are blocked and I am somewhat struggling to breath properly.
When I lay on my left side at night; my left nostril swells and it's difficult to breath from that side. Is this likely the turbinate filling with blood or tissue on the septum filling with blood?
Scheduled for septoplasty. Did not tell doc that when I inhale, the nostril on that side collapses inward. Is that even relevant information?
If I pinched my nostrils & held my breath a few times would that change the shape of my nose like make it slimmer or longer or bone on bridge wider?
Squeezed nostrils and held breath a few times to try to make my wide nose smaller. Now nose bridge bones seem bigger. Could this cause that to happen?
