Does the inside color of my nose look normal? (Photo)

Question

I feel my nose irritated when I blow my nose, does this look normal or this irritation of my nose?

Afshin Parhiscar, MD · Answer

Dear loriboedersIt is difficult to see the inside well. what symptoms are you having? It does take 6 months or so for your nasal mucosa to return to baseline function after septoplasty. In this photo there is no obvious evidence of irritation.

Michael Elam, MD (retired) · Answer

Dear Loriborders, A consultation with direct examination would be needed to determine if your mucosa is irritated. If you have had surgery I would suggest seeking a follow up appointment with your surgeon if not then schedule a consultation and examination with an expert in the field. Best regards, Michael V. Elam, M.D.

Difficult to give advice from a photo.  You need an evaluation by a surgeon to determine if you have mucosa changes,   Good luck.  Donald R. Nunn MD  Atlanta Plastic Surgeon
