Nasal Congestion Overview
What Causes Nasal Congestion?
Nasal congestion occurs when the tissues inside the nose become swollen due to inflammation, infection, or structural abnormalities. While occasional congestion is normal, chronic or severe congestion may indicate an underlying condition requiring medical intervention.
Common Causes of Nasal Congestion:
-
Allergies: Seasonal or environmental allergies can trigger nasal inflammation and congestion.
-
Sinus Infections: Acute or chronic sinus infections can cause prolonged nasal blockage.
-
Deviated Septum: A misaligned nasal septum can restrict airflow, leading to chronic congestion.
-
Nasal Polyps: Non-cancerous growths in the nasal passages that obstruct airflow.
-
Enlarged Turbinates: Swollen nasal structures that contribute to persistent blockage.
-
Respiratory Illnesses: Colds, flu, and other viral infections can temporarily block nasal passages.
-
Environmental Irritants: Smoke, pollution, and strong odors can trigger nasal inflammation.
Symptoms of Chronic Nasal Congestion
Chronic nasal congestion can affect your quality of life and lead to complications such as sinus infections and sleep disturbances. Symptoms may include:
-
Persistent nasal blockage

Difficulty breathing through the nose

Sinus pressure or facial pain
