What Causes Nose Blockage After Having Light Meal?

hi Doc! Thanks for the opportunity to ask. My problem is that after a light mael i sometimes find it hard to breathe well, i feel a blockage in my nose but when doctors do x ray for my chest and lungs they see no problem.
They don't even notice any nasal problem! And this continues to worry me, that is why i am asking.

Hi,

I suggest to observe what kind of foods is causing nasal problems. I also suggest to run allergy tests to exclude allergic reaction.

I advise to:
- eat slowly
- do not talk while you are eating
- avoid heavy smelling foods/spicy/chillies
- keep a good hygiene of your nose.

If the symptoms will persists, I suggest to do a Ct-scan of head and neck to rule out brain problems.

All the best!
