Persistent throat pain is a common complaint, but in many cases, the actual cause is nasal-related issues, not the throat itself.
Some common nasal conditions that can lead to throat discomfort include:
- Deviated Septum (மூக்குத்தண்டு வளைவு)
- Nasal Polyps / Fungal Infections
- Enlarged Turbinates (சதைகள் வீக்கம்)
- Sinus Infections
When the nose is blocked, breathing often shifts to the mouth—especially during sleep. This can cause the throat to become dry and irritated, leading to:
- Swollen tonsils
- Recurrent throat infections
- Persistent pain and discomfort
- Treating only the throat may give temporary relief, but identifying and addressing the root nasal cause is essential for long-term recovery.
