I'm feeling really anxious because I went to the dentist for an emergency treatment today and now I've suddenly got this urge to cough. It feels like there's something stuck in my throat. Could this possibly be related to COVID? The dentist was super careful and followed all the protocols like wearing a face shield, sanitizing everything, using air purifiers, and taking my temperature. He even mentioned he hasnt seen any other patients in a month. Despite all this, I'm still worried. What should I do about these symptoms I'm experiencing?

I've had inferior and middle turbinate issues plus a deviated nasal septum for 13 years, but lately at night either my left or right nostril gets blocked while the other stays clear - never both at the same time. Is surgery necessary if I'm still sleeping fine? With my wedding next month, I'm wondering if I should just live with this condition or get it fixed - what surgery would work best without side effects or the problem coming back?

While your nasal issues may not be severe enough to necessitate immediate surgery, particularly with your wedding coming up, consulting an ENT doctor is highly recommended to determine the best course of action for you. If your symptoms are minimally disruptive, conservative management might suffice. However, if the nasal blockage is causing significant issues like difficulty breathing, noisy breathing during sleep, or persistent congestion, surgery (septoplasty) might be necessary to straighten the deviated septum and address any turbinate issues.
