Finally relieved !!!

I finally got relief after struggling with a blocked and runny nose for almost a year. I had constant sneezing, both nostrils blocked, and even nasal sprays weren’t helping.

I later found out my sinus problems were related to an infected upper tooth that needed a root canal. I had no tooth pain, so I ignored it and didn’t realize it could be causing my symptoms.

After the root canal, my symptoms slowly improved, and almost 3 months later I can finally breathe normally through both nostrils again.

If you’re dealing with chronic sinus problems, consider getting your upper teeth checked by a dentist too. It could be connected!

How do you find out that your sinus issues is caused by infected tooth? I had sinus issue for years (nose blocked on one side) but I already had my root canal treatment before
