My sixth-grade son had been experiencing persistent nasal congestion and sneezing for months, so I went to the ENT clinic. He complained of a sore throat in the morning, especially since his nose was so stuffy at night that he had to breathe through his mouth. The doctor performed a nasal endoscope to examine the inside of his nose and explained that his mucous membranes were swollen and that his allergic rhinitis was chronic. He told me it wasn't just a cold, but that he needed to take care of his nasal mucosa. This reassured me and gave me a clearer direction for treatment.
Treatment included a nasal spray steroid and antihistamine, followed by nasal mucosal decongestant therapy and nebulizer inhalation at the hospital. After rinsing the nose and spraying the medication, my child immediately reported feeling his nose clear. The treatment was quick and painless, so my child felt comfortable undergoing the procedure. The detailed instructions, including instructions for at-home nasal irrigation, bedding care, and dust management, were very helpful.
I liked that they didn't just prescribe medication based on symptoms, but also assessed my living environment. After three or four days of treatment, my nightly nasal congestion was significantly reduced, and after about two weeks, my sneezing frequency also decreased significantly. I always find myself returning to this hospital because it feels like I'm breathing through my nose.
