Common Questions and Answers about Cold one nostril plugged

I earned mine, but again, other than making one nostril more likely to get plugged when I get allergies, it's not something I concern myself with. One way to minimize your health anxiety is to stay off the Google machine. You can't really diagnose yourself, and the same symptoms can be a sign of thousands of diseases or not disease at all. Google is good after you see a health professional and wonder if the treatment plan makes sense, but not to make your own diagnosis.
For about a month or 2 I have been noticing my left nastril seems to be not put to par like my right side.I'm bad at explaining so I'll try my best.Just wondering your thoughts and ideas and if anyone else has felt this way.If I were to blow my nose my right side is fine my left can blow but not nearly the power as my right.Some day's I notice it's a little plugged,which that I understand can make a differece.But on day where I'm not plugged it's weird.
When stuffy it is usually on one side, the low side. If I lay on my left, the left nostril is closed, and if on my right the right nostril is closed. It takes only a couple of minutes for the plug to shift sides.
I do not have pain, and I think that is an indication of an infection. I suggest you see you doctor about the congestion - may be a specialist ENT.
I am not sure if I have asthma or not but lately I am having difficulties with breathing. My left nostril gets blocked early in the morning and in the late evenings after dinner. I am breathing with my right nostril.
Sometimes, when it gets really difficult, I do 10 to 15 push ups and I find a sudden relief in breathing. I feel something melting away in my nose and I feel better for the next few minutes.
From my experience, I would put one shot of afrin in each nostril and wait about 5 minutes till the nose is clear then lie on a bed and drain the loose flood also flushing with neilmed before lying down. The main goal is to get the fluid free and then to drain it. Closed sinuses are a welcome mat for evil things.
Even when calm and not anxious, I feel as if one of my nostrils are constantly plugged,sinus pressure and hard to breath especially when speaking or picking up things, labored work ect.I will also feel at times as if I am breathing too hard through one nostril giving me a sharp pinching sensation in the crown of my head/ back sides of skull/brain.What could this be?
My family and I moved to North Carolina in February, and I noticed that ever since we moved here I have had plugged ears. I do know that allergies are more common in places due to the high level of pollen and such. I have never had any allergy problems until now. I talked to my doctor and she checked my ears and said everything looked fine but to take benadryl just to be on the safe side. But no matter what I do my ears keep staying plugged!
I light a piece of paper on fire and blew it out. I could not smell this when I plugged my right nostril and tried to smell through my left. Getting pretty nervous that this incident might leave me changed forever.
I have gotten x-rays and nothing is fractured. I also saw a similar post from 2007 on this site, but nothing recently. Was hoping someone with this a similiar experience or medical training could help. Should I see a specialist? If so what type? Thanks.
