I Had Two Surgeries on my Deviated Septum and my Breathing is Worse. What Should I Do?

December 22, 2010
Asked By:surgery101 in Los Angeles

I am only 17 years old and so now I'm worried that I got it done at too young of an age, although I guess that doesn't change anything. My septum caused me to have some breathing trouble from the beginning, but it wasn't as bad as it is now, after the surgery. I also had the hump removed, which is why I originally went in, but I thought if they could do two things at once, might as well. I never thought it would get worse. : [ It's kind of upsetting and I don't know what to think about it now.
