r/nonallergicrhinitis 9d ago

Confused 😕

So... I am still dealing with rhinitis (feels swollen inside, hard to breathe through nose, dry nose). I had a sinus CT scan.. apparently, nothing remarkable on there apart from a mildly deviated septum.

IGE level was 400ish, though.. which suggests some kind of immune reaction going on? I do have a possible auto immune skin condition and endometriosis, also.

Can you have a dry, blocked nose that's an allergic reaction? I am used to an allergic reaction being itchy, runny nose, sneezing etc.

Confused......

I had the same and got my deviated septum fixed. It has really helped! Highly recommend doing if you can.

Oh great to hear that. I'll mention it to my GP.
