i had a septoplasty and very minor minor turbinate surgery on may 6 2006...i had a great two months after the surgery with no problems whtat so ever. i was breathing clear out of both nostirls but now i'm feel congested and stuffed up in the one nostril but not the other. also it seems if i lay down i get worse everytime..any ideas would be great

It is difficult to tell the cause of this problem.  It probably is the same reason for which you had the original surgery.  I would suggest speaking with your surgeon before undergoing any specific therapy.  He/she may want to use certain medications and/or therapies.
