Asked By:Considerate390623 in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada

I had a revision rhinoplasty done a month ago and i discovered i have a perforated septum im the back part of the septum. Would a septoplasty help fix this problem? I heard whistling 48 hrs after having the splints removed but thought it was just from the swelling or nasal obstruction but i had a big booger come out the other day and saw some blood clots in it and did a some investgating with a light and saw the light through the other nostril
