I have a perforation of the septum that is about 1cm large.. What can I do?

Asked By:voxsola in Calgary, AB

My main problem that I have trouble finding information on, is the vast amount of mucus produced because of it. I choke on it, it just about makes eating impossible as everything going past the thing irritates it and brings on huge amounts of mucus. As a result my entire system suffers from exhaustion and weakness, other unpleasant effects. That's about all I want to say in public... suffice to say this problem is greatly interfering with the quality of my life and so far there seems to be no help.
