I have had a blocked nose since early teens and i can never breathe through my nose despite all types of medication?

ENT: I would recommend that you see an ear, nose, throat specialist. It could be a deviated septum but growths could do the same thing. Have it checked out.

Worth a visit: See your primary doc and find out if your obstruction is mechanical or something your "medicines" have triggered. Deviation of the bone in the middle or polyps both can mechanically obstruct air flow and may require surgery to improve.Overuse of common nose sprays can also injure the nasal membranes to the point they always remains swollen until you stop and let them heal.
