Hello, this is Cocoline.

It’s started raining again :)

Have you recently had a sudden feeling that your nose has been getting blocked more often and feels stuffy? Usually, many people may think, “Do I have a cold?” in this case, but it may actually be closer to the correct answer to think, “Did I develop rhinitis?”

People who visit our clinic often say things like this: “I didn’t have rhinitis when I was young, but I think I suddenly developed it.”

If you ask whether rhinitis can really appear suddenly when it did not exist before, the answer is of course yes.

In fact, rhinitis can occur sufficiently depending on your living environment, your habits, or external factors. In other words, rhinitis that did not exist yesterday can appear today.

The reasons rhinitis develops are as follows.

  1. Changes in constitution

Our bodies are constantly changing. This is to adapt to new environments. Because of this, changes in constitution can occur due to unstable environmental factors. In particular, allergic rhinitis caused by pollen and other factors can develop, so the number of cases inquiring about rhinitis surgery is also steadily increasing.

  1. Structural changes

Your small daily habits can also change your nasal health. For example, if your nose becomes crooked due to an external impact,

Your nasal health can also change because of small daily habits. For example, if your nose becomes crooked due to an external impact, or if you maintain certain postures that put strain on the nose for long periods of time, the structure of the nose can naturally change, and rhinitis symptoms may develop as a result.

Rhinitis is one of the diseases that lowers quality of life more than many people expect. In the early stages, rhinitis may be limited to a runny nose, but if it is left untreated, you must never forget that it can lead not only to lack of sleep but also to breathing problems and even changes in the entire face.

That is why Cocoline conducts rhinitis surgery with a strong sense of mission.

It means that the nose is not just about being high and pretty.

In addition, since Cocoline is operated by an ENT specialist, if you have private medical insurance, reimbursement for actual medical expenses is also possible.

Director Kim Seon-gu, the head doctor at Cocoline, has been continuously researching surgery to help patients regain nasal health for about 20 years in otolaryngology.

As a result, Cocoline has developed its own know-how that makes it possible to clearly treat rhinitis while creating a beautiful nose.

If you are still feeling frustrated by a blocked nose, we recommend planning a treatment strategy with Cocoline.

At Cocoline, we consult with and perform surgery on a limited number of patients each day. This means that it is not a surgery done indiscriminately, but rather that we are doing our best for each and every patient.

We never force or recommend excessive surgery. We do our best to perform only the surgery that patients truly need and, further, to help them breathe comfortably and refreshingly.

If you are experiencing uncomfortable symptoms right now, you can comfortably receive a consultation only about that part. We never force anything :)

First, after reading the rhinitis-related columns on our blog, please use the online consultation on our website. Since Director Kim Seon-gu answers directly, you can ask your questions and receive answers yourself without visiting in person.

For a faster and smoother consultation, please call the clinic and we will kindly guide you.

Please be careful of the changeable weather, and have a happy day!
