Nasal congestion and sinus blockages can stem from structural or inflammatory issues: ### Deviated Nasal Septum (DNS) An off-center internal nasal partition can narrow one nostril, restricting airflow and contributing to chronic blocks and snoring. ### Turbinate Hypertrophy Chronic allergies can cause the tissue linings (turbinates) inside your nose to swell, blocking breathing. ### Sinus Drainage Blockages Swollen tissues can block the natural openings of your sinuses, trapping fluid and causing pressure, pain, and headaches.
