My husband has such bad nasal congestion for the last two weeks - getting increasingly worse -has seen his PCP-been on antibiotics - recently had a CAT scan of head - waiting results. Face so swollen this morning he looked like a caricature. How serious can this be and if does not resolve - what can happen?
Hello, Welcome to Chat Doctor, Oral antibiotics definitely help to reduce the infection and there by reduces the nasal congestion. As your husband is having severe nasal congestion I would have suggested him1. Steam inhalation with Vapor caps2. Oral Nasal Decongestant3. Oral LEvoctrizine with montelukast The medicines can be taken after getting the prescription from your treating doctor. Thank you.
