Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. In my opinion you are having rhinitis and upper respiratory tract infection(URI) most probably of viral etiology. Better to control these first before any surgical procedure. Try to follow these for rhinitis and URI.1. Avoid oily and spicy food.2.  Chat Doctor. 3. Warm water gargles 5-6 times a day.4. Caroline group of antibiotic. 5. Anti-inflammatory and antihistamine
