Radiesse: Q&A

Ask a Question

Need a Dr./ Oklahoma (Willing to Drive!)?

Had Radiesse in my tear troughs 6 years ago. Have chronic black mold/pus coming out of my sinuses for 3 years. I think there is an abnormal opening in my nose to my face that chronically drains. I can't find anyone who can help me. ENT Dr.'s all think I'm crazy and the abcesss that I am 100% positive that I have does not show up on CT. I know there must be someone to listen and want to help me. Don't wanna live like this. My ENT says I'm fine (NO). Seen Dr.s/ multiple specialties. Please help me.

Need a Dr./ Oklahoma (Willing to Drive!)?

I would suggest that you start by contacting the ENT/Facial Plastic/Plastic Surgery departments at some medical centers near you and see if you can get someone to discuss your case or, at least, to be willing to meet you in person. You should have copies of the tests that have been done (CT Scans, etc). Sorry, but I hope that this has helped, Dr. E

Radiesse - sinusitis

You may want to get another opinion from a plastic surgeon or better yet, head and neck specialist at the Mayo Clinic or Cleveland Clinic. Good Luck. Sometimes it is best to get a 'fresh look' into your problem for reassurance.

Thank you so much. I am not doing well. There is a lot of pus coming out of my nose from my face. I can feel where it's coming from and exactly where it ate into my sinuses, but no one wants to help me. If you only knew how much money I've spent so far and how many doctors I've seen, how many CT scans and MRI's. I just want someone to cut my face open and treat me. It's hard to believe that in this century a person cannot get medical help. Surely ultrasound or something could help diagnose this problem. When I use the Neil Med sinus irrigator, I am sure that it goes up into my face where pus and black mold also comes out, so you would think that contrast could be used in some way to figure this out, or...just cut my face open and let me live a normal life again.
Thank you so much, but I think the Great Physician helped me out. I said a prayer yesterday. I threw up some "rocks". I know that sounds crazy, but I think they came down the back of my throat. I having been getting white hard rocks out of my sinuses since July. I am saving the pieces. The force of throwing up disloged some fairly large rocks and now I can smell for the first time in 3 years. I also could literally press on the left side of my nose and the left side of my mouth would draw up. Wherever these "rocks" were, they were putting tremendous pressure on a nerve. I prayed for some mercy right before all this happended yesterday, and now I am hoping this could be a turning point. The left side of my face feels almost normal. Fingers crossed. Why did these "rocks" not show up on xray or CT scans if dermal filler is supposed to show up. I had this stuff injected 6 long years ago.
