2. Hypertrophy of inferior turbinate: when the soft tissue near the turbinate of the nose is edematous, or there is hypertrophy of the turbinate, it can cause nasal congestion, such as hypertrophy of the turbinate, which is mostly caused by chronic rhinitis for a long time.
3. Acute and chronic sinusitis: acute sinusitis is often secondary to acute rhinitis, which is an acute purulent inflammation of the mucous membrane of the sinuses, mucopurulent secretions stimulate the sinuses, nasal mucosa, and stagnation in the nasal cavity triggered by nasal congestion, pus, headache, may be accompanied by systemic symptoms.
