Hello
Welcome in H.C.M.
Regarding your query for sore throat, one sided nasal block and dust allergy, though you were smoker at the begening but quit the habbit at the age of 37 and now you are 61 years old.
Your medical history favors for respiratory tract infection involving nose and sinuse with throat. Here one thing is very important that you are having one side nasal obstruction which is very important from treatment point of view as one sided nasal obstruction may be because of-
1- Deviated nasal septum.
2- Antero choanal polyp.
3- Turbinate hypertrophy.
These above may be ruled out by clinical examination and all above may give rise ti recurrent nasal infection with post nasal drip thus throat get involved in infective process. As you said that you are also having allergic symptoms so I would like to say that in presence of infection allergic features always precipitates.
So please consult your ENT doctor and get manage your problem.
Regards.
