Small bump on the nose

hi i´m getting a septoplasty soon to correct a deviated septum and i was wondering if the doctor could just remove the bump on my nose I don´t want to change the change of my nose i just want a straight bridge that´s all

A: Correcting a small bump during a septoplasty procedure

If it bothers you I would recommend removing the small bump during the septoplasty procedure as you would only have one recovery. From the one photo you sent, it should be a relatively straightforward procedure to do at the same time but my entail additional costs to you.

Septoplasty Caused Ulcer on my Palate - Is That Normal?

Inmediately when I woke up from the septoplasty surgery I noticed I had an ulcer in my palate that I didnt have before. Have trouble eating and its uncomfortable. After 3 weeks it hasnt reduced the inflammation in its size, its actually growing, i'm starting to get sores in my palate too and my gums hurt. I went back to the Otolaryngologist that operated me, he prescribed "Deflazacort" but I dont feel comfortable taking it cause its an immunosuppressant. What can I take to elimininate the ulcer?

A: Ulcers in mouth after septoplasty

I would follow the instructions of your ENT surgeon. It is possible that you developed them during the healing process and they could be from when you underwent anesthesia. They should resolve in time. Any surgical procedure that you are put to sleep with a breathing tube can result in oral ulcers.

Bump on Nose After Septoplasty

i underwent septoplasty, 6 days back, indication was lost cartilage after septal abscess 4 years back. nw i see bump on my nose. is it due to filling of more amaunt of cartilage in the septum. what is the corrective measure.

A: Bump after septoplasty

It sounds as if you may have had a rhinoplasty as well. It is not atypical to have some additional ridging or a bump after this procedure and it can last a variable amount of time. I would discuss this with your surgeon to make sure that you are healing well.
