Why does my nose have such a horrible smell after turbinate reduction and septum repair?
bribradnewyorkAug 13, 2016
I had nose surgery about a month ago. My nasal passages are extremely small, so they had to shrink my turbinates and also repair my septum. I am following all of the DRs orders. I still even sleep with my head elevated. However, the past week or so, my nose has an incredibly horrid smell. It's so bad that my husband can smell it when he kisses me. (This is super embarrassing.) I am just not sure what to do.
