I'm really worried about my brother. He's been dealing with a nasal blockage for months now after recovering from Covid. He tested negative and was fine for a bit after vaccination, but now he can't breathe properly through his nose and has to breathe through his mouth, especially at night. It's affecting his sleep a lot. He quit smoking recently after a long habit, and his PFT results were okay, but he's still not feeling well. What could be causing this ongoing congestion?

View allI'm a bit worried because during dinner I think a piece of food might've gone down my windpipe. I didn't have a choking fit or anything, but I did feel like at some point the food left my windpipe. Now it's got me wondering because I still feel like there's something stuck in my throat. Breathing and talking are fine, but I keep coughing since it feels like something's in there. Is it possible I might've just coughed it up and swallowed it, and my throat's just irritated?
Yes you are right,that coul be because of irritation nothing else,because windpipe cannot accomodate anything other than air,hence no need to worry,consume warm foods untill you feel better.

I am suffering from allergy sinusitis from 5yrs but I have done allergy test but no allergy but nasal spray is not effective but some doctors telling do surgery but some doctors telling not required congestion is more night and early morning
It's understandable that you're seeking clarity on your chronic sinusitis, especially with conflicting opinions about surgery. Since your allergy tests are negative, the cause might be non-allergic rhinitis or other factors affecting your sinus drainage. If nasal sprays are not effective, and your symptoms persist, further evaluation and possible surgical intervention could be considered.
