An article claims that a person with chronic nasal obstruction is 5 times more likely to suffer from sleep apnea. Nasal obstructions can be caused by 3 things: allergies, rhinosinusitis, or a deviated septum.
I went to an Otolaryngist last year at Mass Eye and Eye Infirmary and she found a deviated septum when she examined me. She gave something to irrigate my nasal passages with salt water to keep them clear. It's been very helpful.
