Abstract:
:It is evident from the foregoing that the evaluation of such a common complaint as nasal obstruction can be extremely complex. If a thorough history and examination are undertaken, however, only a small number of these investigations (if any) may be required. In each individual, it is always worth considering possible predisposing factors. Good clinical practice dictates that we attempt to quantify problems and measure our success in treating them. Until recently, rhinology has not been overendowed with such investigative tools, so it behooves us to use those now available when unraveling the cause of deceptively simple nasal obstruction.
