As if there's not enough to worry about! Since I'm currently experiencing a lot of congestion, I was interested to listen to this ABC Health Report program. If you're considering any sort of septum surgery, listen up.

Imagine this: your nasal cavity feels so blocked that you can’t breathe properly – to the point that you feel like you’re suffocating.
And it feels like this all the time.
But, when you go to get it checked out – there’s nothing there. Your nose might feel completely blocked up, but it’s actually completely empty.
This is the perplexing condition, Empty Nose Syndrome.
