Turbinates Problems

Well, I found out what my problem is....

Turbinates are clogged with dry muscus and emphiod siniuses are also inflammed....since then I have not had a runny nose or any moistur in my siniuses in 2-3 months...

Another thing is can this cause partial hearing loss since my sinisues are dried up like a desert? Plus head pressure and other symtoms (symptoms)...but main problem is the ear....

What can help fix this?

I had the turbinate surgery and it really didn't help.  I get the same thing, they swell and nothing runs out of my nose, so therefore clogs me up.  Try a saline spray 3 to 4 times a day to put moisture in your sinuses.  Also try a humidifier.  Have you taken oral cortizone steroids?
