I read about ida and pingala. Should both feel equal before sitting? What if one is always blocked?

Equal nostrils are ideal, not mandatory. Do 3ΓÇô5 minutes of gentle nadi shodhana, then sit. Chronic one-sided blockage may need medical check (deviated septum, allergy) plus soft yoga ΓÇö do not force breath through a closed side violently.
