A member asked:
After recovery from meningitis (cause- sinuses) nose gets stuffy/easily irritated (im not currently infected) anything i can do to relieve/help it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Culture : If you have rhinitis in this setting and have recently used broad spectrum antibiotics I would visit an ENT for a culture to see if you have bacterial or fungal sinusitis that may be resistant. Until then you can try Flonase.
