Suggest Treatment For Allergy With Deviated Nasal Septum
Question: Hello Doctor,
Recently I am facing breathing trouble frequently, as in I have to breathe from mouth when not consciously breathing from nose, and that breathing from mouth takes lot of efforts which leads to a situation of breathlessness which then makes it hard to explain people around, without knowing the reason for the same.
I cycle 8 km one way to office on cycle, I am skeptical if it is the pollution or dust, but I get this trouble mostly when I am at home, and not always when there is physical exertion.
I am going for Mountain biking Trip in Himalayas tomorrow for 8 days, organized by Youth Hostel Association of XXXXXXX and I want to ask if there are any precautions to be taken or I will be able to do it without much trouble.
