Do I really need to undergo sinus surgery for my stuffy nose, sore throat, and mucus dripping down the back of my throat (post-nasal drip) if the only medication I have used is Montek LC and I have not tried standard antibiotics first?

Asked by Male, 24 · 9 days ago

Typically, sinus surgery is considered only after comprehensive medical treatments have been tried and have not provided relief. Since you have only tried Montek LC (montelukast and levocetirizine), there are still several highly effective, non-surgical options available. These often include saline nasal rinses, prescription nasal steroid sprays, and sometimes targeted antibiotics if a bacterial infection is present. I highly recommend discussing these conservative medical treatments with an ear, nose, and throat specialist before considering any surgical procedures.
