Chronic Runny Nose? Dr. Josh Meier Discusses New Treatment on KTVN Health Watch

July 30, 2026/in News, Uncategorized /by MNG PR

A chronic runny nose can affect much more than your comfort. It can disrupt sleep, interfere with work and daily activities, and leave you wondering if lasting relief is even possible.

In a recent KTVN Channel 2 Health Watch segment, Dr. Josh Meier, Director of Reno Tahoe Sinus Center, discusses an advanced in-office procedure that can help patients with chronic rhinitis find long-term relief. Known as posterior nasal nerve radiofrequency ablation, the treatment reduces excessive nerve signals that contribute to persistent nasal drainage while preserving the normal function of the nose.

Watch Dr. Meier’s interview below, or view the original feature on KTVN Channel 2.

If medications haven’t provided lasting relief from your chronic runny nose, Dr. Meier and the team at Reno Tahoe Sinus Center can evaluate your symptoms and determine whether this minimally invasive treatment may be an option for you.
