I'm feeling really worried because for the past couple of days, I've been dealing with a dry nose and now it feels super itchy. I don't have a cold or any other symptoms like a headache or fever, but I'm breastfeeding my baby and I'm concerned if these could be symptoms of a virus. Can you give me some advice on what this might be and what I should do? I'd really appreciate your help!

View allI've been dealing with this really unpleasant smell coming from my throat for the past six years. It's not constant, but I notice this bad smell sometimes moving from my throat to my nose. I'm feeling worried about what might be causing it. Could you help me understand what's going on and how I might be able to fix it?
The bad smell youre experiencing could be related to a variety of conditions, including sinus issues, tonsil problems, or oral health concerns. Improving your oral hygiene, staying hydrated, and addressing potential underlying conditions like post-nasal drip or GERD may help alleviate the issue. If it persists or worsens, a visit to an ENT specialist or dentist is a good next step to pinpoint the exact cause and determine the best course of treatment.

Can Ayurveda really cure sinus issues permanently or is surgery the only option left if treatments don't work? I've been struggling with recurring sinus problems and want to explore natural remedies before considering surgery. What are the best Ayurvedic treatments for chronic sinusitis?
Yes, sinusitis, or sinus infections, can often be treated and cured without surgery. Many cases resolve with home remedies, over-the-counter medications, and sometimes antibiotics if the infection is bacterial. Surgery is typically reserved for chronic or severe cases where non-surgical treatments have been ineffective

For the past 12 years, I've had this issue where one nostril is always blocked while the other works, and they keep switching throughout the day. I also get frequent colds and nasal congestion almost 15 days every month. Right now, I rely on Allegra, saline sprays, and Flutira decongestants, but it's not a permanent fix. Could this be something that surgery can cure? What's the best long-term treatment for this?
Summary. Allergies, colds, environmental pollutants, and many other triggers can contribute to a blocked nostril on one side. Many people with other health conditions like a deviated septum or nasal polyps may notice that their nose is only stuffy on one side
