A member asked:
Nose randomly swells and gets red for anywhere between 5 minutes - 2 hours at a time. mucus doesn't drain normally, boogers are hard, and it affects my breathing and sense of smell. been to 12 doctors and ct shows nothing. can someone please help?

This most likely is not occurring randomly. Your body (nose) is talking to you. Listen and take good notes. Time of day, what you were doing, where you were, what were u smelling, smoking, eating, drinking just before. New pets? Allergies? What is blooming where you are. After a few episodes and good note taking u will figure it out.
