Appreciating the Intricacies of a Stuffy Nose

Common conditions occur commonly, but identifying the causes and optimizing treatment may be difficult. Nasal airway obstruction, one of the most common complaints related to Otolaryngology, is often reported to health care providers in various fields. These include pediatrics, family practice, internal medicine, geriatrics, obstetrics/gynecology, emergency medicine, and, of course, otolaryngology.
