Nasal congestion and reflex headache
Introduction
Introduction Nasal congestion, aggravation of a cold, reflex headache is a symptom of deviation of the nasal septum. The human nasal cavity is divided into two parts by a layer of partition, which is called the nasal septum. When the baffle is bent to one side or both sides, it exhibits an S-shaped or C-shaped deflection.
Cause
Cause
Nasal congestion is one of the common symptoms of otolaryngology. Patients generally feel a foreign body blockage in the nasal cavity, rhinitis, nasal septum deviation, nasal polyps, sinusitis, nasal tumors and polyps obstructing nasal respiratory passages; nasopharyngeal tumors and proliferative hypertrophy After the trauma, the nasal septum is deflected; the secretion of specific infection of the nasal cavity is blocked, such as nasal syphilis, nasal diphtheria, nasal tuberculosis, nasal induration and other patients can feel nasal congestion symptoms.

There are three main manifestations of nasal septum deviation: nasal congestion, aggravation of a cold; reflex headache; nosebleeds. In addition, other complications caused by nasal septum deviation are also obvious, such as decreased sense of smell or disappear; tinnitus and hearing loss; blurred vision, blurred vision. In addition, patients with nasal septum deviation are most prone to repeated colds, because the drainage opening of the patient's sinus is blocked, resulting in the proliferation of bacteria and viruses in the nasal cavity, causing repeated colds.
Diagnosis
Differential diagnosis
Several common nasal congestions:
Nasal congestion is one of the common symptoms of otolaryngology. Patients generally feel a foreign body blockage in the nasal cavity, rhinitis, nasal septum deviation, nasal polyps, sinusitis, nasal tumors and polyps obstructing nasal respiratory passages; nasopharyngeal tumors and proliferative hypertrophy After the trauma, the nasal septum is deflected; the secretion of specific infection of the nasal cavity is blocked, such as nasal syphilis, nasal diphtheria, nasal tuberculosis, nasal induration and other patients can feel nasal congestion symptoms.
Alternate nasal congestion: The nasal cavity on the underside of the lateral side often obstructs the aggravation. After lying on the other side, there was no nasal congestion or a nasal congestion on the upper side. After turning to the lower side, a nasal congestion or nasal congestion was aggravated. The nasal nasal congestion just below the lower side was alleviated. In addition, the sense of smell can be reduced to varying degrees, and the speech is an occlusive nasal sound. Because the nasal sputum flows through the nasal vestibule and upper lip for a long time, it can cause dermatitis or eczema, which is more common in children. The sinus can flow backward into the pharynx, causing symptoms such as cough and phlegm. This is one of the clinical symptoms of patients with chronic simple rhinitis.
The main symptoms of nasal foreign body disease are deep nasal congestion and purulent nasal discharge. The nasal foreign body is a substance inside and outside the nasal cavity. Nasal foreign substances can be divided into the following three types: 1 non-biological such as sugar paper, plastic plastic toys, buttons, necklace beads, glass beads, stones, soil and so on. 2 Plants such as beans, peanuts, fruit cores, etc. 3 Animals such as insects, mites, mites, leeches, etc. There are three main manifestations of nasal septum deviation: nasal congestion, aggravation of a cold; reflex headache; nosebleeds. In addition, other complications caused by nasal septum deviation are also obvious, such as decreased sense of smell or disappear; tinnitus and hearing loss; blurred vision, blurred vision. In addition, patients with nasal septum deviation are most prone to repeated colds, because the drainage opening of the patient's sinus is blocked, resulting in the proliferation of bacteria and viruses in the nasal cavity, causing repeated colds.
