Hi there! I had a septorhinoplasty in 2022 and by and large, I'm very happy with the results. One thing I've noticed, however, is this somewhat persistent and mildly irritating itching sensation on the left side, near the supratip break. Sometimes it feels like it's deeper in my sinuses and radiating towards my eye. It is not painful, just annoying. Could this be nerve damage? Is it likely permanent at this point?
Ive never had acne as an adult and im 30 but i recently had a breakout which I suspect is fungal acne as its very itchy on my cheeks, over the counter treatment helps but it doesnt eliminate it. Im trying to figure out the cause at the time I broke out my hormones where fine I had tests, no change in diet or lifestyle. The only thing I had that was different was a steroid injection in my nose due to post surgery swelling. Could there be a correlation?
Considering a rhinoplasty this year. I understand that surgeons recommend using saline post op. My issue is when I use a saline I become very sneezy and nose becomes itchy on tthe inside (almost allergy type feeling). What can I do to minimize discomfort caused by saline post op? Are there specific types of saline that are better?
Its been 2.5 post open rhinoplasty and about a week ago my nostrils & columella started developing redness, itchiness and irritated. I saw my surgeon 3 days ago and he prescribed me clindamycin antibiotic along with triamcinolone cream. I was just wondering if anyone has ever seen or experienced this post rhinoplasty? Is this an allergy? Could this be an infection? Im highly concerned and worried that this will effect my overall results... Thankyou
I had gore-tex implanted on the bridge of my nose about a month ago. My skin is been peeling and itchy. My bridge is red as you can see. I dont feel any pain or tenderness on the area. Is it just sensitive new skin or is it an infection?
I had open septoplasty surgery done 8 days ago and I still have my cast on, I cant get an appt with my surgeon till December, can I take the cast off myself? I had to go to my doctors to have my stitches removed today, I have no swelling as I can see or feel, Im still bruised a little & have blood shot eyes! My nose isnt hurting but the cast is becoming very uncomfortable, itching & feels very sweaty under there!
I started getting an itchy skin around the corner of my nose around 13 days post my rhinoplasty. I think it may be due to the glue left by the tape but i am afraid that it may be something else? is applying fuicidin on the region helpful in such cases? (I wouldve asked my surgeon about this but I traveled few days post my operation and it is difficult to contact him)
Hey doctors. I keep overthinking a lot and this has been stressing me out and giving me a lot of anxiety. I know that I only have an L strut left and am just concerned how well connected it is without becoming loose. If it is so easy to harvest cartilage maybe it can become loose easily especially because there in only a very small amount at the caudal area. Sometimes I have to itch my nose inside with my finer gently and am nervous the septum will become loose...It really concerns me?
post op and my nose is EXTREMELY itchy inside. I always catch myself subconciously 'scrunching' my nose side to side, up and down to relieve the itch. I never thought anything about it until now but i feel like it may be ruining my result. please help. thanks in advance.
