20 years ago, I decided to get rhino when I was young, I ended up getting a pinched nose, and although the nose was ugly- I could breath from it. MOving forward 20 years later, decided to fix the nose cosmetically
worst decision EVER. I have been unable to properly breathe from my nose for 13 months.
The first 12 months were excruciating until the doctor decided to do a revision for breathing. Nothing
changed drastically, I still have a block in my right now, namely because of a "dip" created by the original pinch... I need HELP opening up a internal depression in a nose... can anyone help??????? I professional NOT A CHARLATAN!!!!

the doctor tried his best to fix it cosmetically, and the nose looked beautiful, but I am stuck with a breathing issue now.

4 months and I STILL don't have my breathing back, I have been struggling every day with dead air, and one of my nostrils looks slightly narrow...
Doctors can't figure it out, I have a CT scan set up in the next 6 weeks. I may have to go to Mayo clinic for answers. I am suffering everyday.

Hi veronica, I am sorry about what happen to you! I have them too, dry nose, eyes, mouth, ears and head aches after 5 1/2 months of rhinoplasty. It's driving me crazy! How are you now? Did you find cure? God bless

I don't feel my head. After my second revision with Dr.Torgerson, I don't think I took well to the anesthetic, plus I was already anxious because of the tissue scarring from the first revision, I have been admitted to hospital and being treated for PTSD and anxiety, my head is completely numb and my breathing is very asymmetrical can someone please tell me if they have experienced this situation before? I can't breathe from my nostrils at all at this point and and my head feels numb?

I am fighting for my life everyday for the past 4 months. I think everyone should read about the dangers of anesthetics, immune disorders etc before proceeding with a rhinoplasty. I was predisposed to an auto immune disorder and was not advised against doing the procedure, had I have known, I would have never done it, my body head is very numb, I am not sure if my nervous system shut down, and I can't breathe from the left side of my nostril at all.
