Case study

-I stay in vista.
-I have block nose that causes severe headache most likely due to sinus inflammation due to reason unknown, could be dust, could be bacteria/viral or (low porbability) fungal infection.
-I started steroidal nasal spray few days ago
-Symptoms are better now
-Vista is known for fungal growth
-Corticosteroids reduce immune system
-Fungal infection of sinus cavity would almost always require surgical intervention

Question:
Would the benefit of continuing the nasal spray for prophylaxis outweigh the risk of fungal infection?

Dont worry. See it in this way. Next time you can harvest fresh mushroom from your nose anytime you want it.

Anyway, take care man.
