Case 1:
Nose Focused Exam
Richard is a 50-year-old male with nasal congestion, sneezing,
rhinorrhea, and postnasal drainage. Richard has struggled with
an itchy nose, eyes, palate, and ears for 5 days. As you check
his ears and throat for redness and inflammation, you notice him
touch his fingers to the bridge of his nose to press and rub
there. He says he's taken Mucinex OTC the past two nights to
help him breathe while he sleeps. When you ask if the Mucinex
has helped at all, he sneers slightly and gestures that the
improvement is only minimal. Richard is alert and oriented. He
has pale, boggy nasal mucosa with clear thin secretions and
enlarged nasal turbinates, which obstruct airway flow but his
lungs are clear. His tonsils are not enlarged but his throat is
mildly erythematous.
