I have always had a crooked nose, not due to injury. I have been told I have a deviated septum, and due to issues caused by it (mouth breathing/snoring, frequent nosebleeds) Im looking into septoplasty. With my nose being so crooked, whats the likelihood of it being straightened as part of the procedure and/or insurance covering any part of a rhinoplasty?
I need a septoplasty procedure but I'm a claustrophobic person and also suffer from anxiety. Is Reltok Clear Flo airway effective on septoplasty procedures? Does it really work on patients with their breathing while healing? And has it helped people who are claustrophobic?
I had a really bad fall over a year ago and got a septoplasty done the same week I broke my nose. Ive waited a little bit over a year to make sure I was fully healed and now I cant breathe out of my nose and I feel constant pressure and pain in my eyes and head when I went to the doctor he said I had swollen polyps and that it had nothing to do with the surgery even though the pain hasnt gone away since and my snoring got worse and my septum is still deviated did the surgery fail?
Hello there! I have had a deviated septum for as long as I can remember. Now, at 25, it's became a big issue. My nose feels like it is literally clogged up everyday unless I use a nasal spray. I am wondering if plastic surgeons perform this surgery? Also, how could I remove the bump on the front of my nose? It's like extra cartilage on ONE side. I don't want to change the entire nose shape (even tho I don't really love it) but mostly that bump which makes it look crooked & maybe sides. Thanks!
Hello! I am a white 45 year old woman and have had a crooked nose with an asymmetrical bifid tip. Lately I am having more trouble breathing out of one nostril and Ive noticed that the septum looks more S-shaped and that the very tip seems twisted as much as 30 degrees. What procedure should I be looking into to fix this? Thanks very much for your advice.
For 2 years the inside of my nose has been swelling almost completely up Had septoplasty and had my turbinates shaved down and was told that would solve the problem. Months later after surgery and my nose is still swelling up and still getting severely congested. Any suggestions on what it could be or what could help?
I had a septoplasty just gone 2 years ago. Around a year ago I started to notice a bump on the left side of my nose. Its on the bridge of my nose where its fairly straight and then theres what feels like a slight dip on the left side of the nose followed by a big bump. Is this normal? Should I be worried? Its making me concerned of the strength of my nose although my breathing is absolutely fine
In December of 2023 I had a septorhinoplasty to resolve a deviated septum. I was told rhinoplasty would also have to be involved because my nose had another deformity that would have to be fixed along with the deviated septum in order to fix my breathing. Its 1 year post op and there are still bands of stiff, lumpy tissue on the bridge of my nose, and the skin is red and thin over the area making these lumps obvious.
