A member asked:
Rhinitis( swollen nasal passages). oral steroids( medrol dose pack did not help much. will nasal steroids not work then if oral ones did not help much?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: If 40-60 mg of prednisone daily fails to help after 2-3 days, nasal steroid will not likely work. but still worth a try. Consult an allergist if problem persists. By the way, I recall having answered some of your questions recently.
