–At night, one nostril blocks because of the body’s natural nasal cycle. When we lie down, blood flow increases to one side due to gravity, causing temporary swelling. Once you get up, it opens again. Since there are no other symptoms, this is normal and not a concern.
–If it becomes constant during the day or is associated with pain or discharge, then we’ll evaluate further.
– for proper explanation visit to ent specialist for examination of is there any deviated septum , your can be sinus issues

Thanks, this was so helpful! Your suggestion really put my mind at ease. I’m trying the steam inhalation & it’s already helping a bit!
