Answer
Hello, “two round lumps” as you describe are the lower tip of the nose, this is a normal structure. When inflammation, the lower nasal turbinate is swollen and enlarged, it will narrow the air passage into the lungs, so you feel stuffy. Therefore, you should go to an ENT specialist at the Vinmec Health System facilities for treatment. Please check and advise in detail
