Will Antibodies Help Reduce Nasal Congestion?
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 HCM,
Oral antibiotics definitely help to treduce the infection and there by reduces the nasal congestion.
As your husband is having severe nasal congestion I would have suggest him
1.Steam inhalation with Vapo caps
2.Oral Nasal Decongestant
3.Oral LEvoctrizine with montelocast
The medicines can be taken after getting the prescription from your traeting doctor.
Thank you.
