From the symptoms you describe it sounds like you need to have your primary care doc refer you to an ENT (ear, nose and throat specialist). He should be able to make an accurate diagnosis and determine whether or not you actually need surgery or if some other treatment plan may work for you. You do need to see the ENT. This is his specialty and he has expertise that your primary care doc doesn't have. Until you see the ENT, you should try Breathe Right strips. These are slim, bandaid-like strips that fit over the bridge of your nose and hold your nasal passages open so you can breather freely. There are generics out there that are identical to the brand name and less expensive. If you have trouble finding a generic brand, ask at your pharmacy. Hope you choose to see an ENT and that he can help your situation. God bless you, luv.

Physicians specializing in the ears, nose and throat are officially called otorhinolaryngologists. its a mouthful to say so most people call then E-N-T-s. Allergic rhinitis (nose allergies) are actually within the realm of their domain.
A physician who specializes in allergies on the other hand are called allergologists. They're usually pediatricians or dermatologists first with further subspecialty training with allergies.

Actually they are listed under ENT (Ears, Nose & Throat). I worked for one for 4 years and we did allergy testing, making the antigens, and gave the injections.
