Why is the failure rate for nasal surgery so high?
rosiecon12Sep 5, 2016
I've heard up to 50% of procedures on the nose DO NOT leave the patient more satisfied with the nose breathing or appearance. I have breathing problems and I am depressed now as that failure rate is too high for me to be considering the surgery...thus at 20 I am stuck with breathing issues for life:( Ever since I broke my nose I have been reluctant to do activities I used to enjoy, and nasal obstruction really makes me sad, is this normal?
