When I was younger I fell into a cupboard which left my nose crooked, I was only 4 and as a result wasn't able to have surgery to correct it. I had a CT scan a few years ago which confirmed I have chronic sinusitis, bone spurs and a deviated septum. I've had mild to severe eye pain since the incident, which has caused me numerous problems and both school and now work.
i have minimal deviated nose.. i dont want to cut my nose ..the reason for going laser septoplaty is im undergoing for mastoid surgery (cholesteatoma) so in future due to deviated nose i dont want to go for another surgery again (Eustachian may leads to cholesteatoma)... just for safety side i would like go for laser to remove my nasal wall with minimal risk...
I had a septorhinoplasty just under 3 weeks ago with the cast removed after 7 days. With every day that goes by I can see a bump forming on my bridge which is hard as bone. The rhinoplasty was to straighten my profile (before picture also attached). Im really nervous that the hard bone on my bridge will remain and my profile will no longer be straight. Im really hoping that it reduces (and I know I have to be patient) but it just seems to be getting more pronounced with each day.
I have a little bit of white bone sticking out of my cartilage inside my nose. It's not painful and it's not affecting my breathing (because it is very small) but I've had it for a couple of years and it's starting to annoy me now. I've been to my GP and he seems clueless about it and without his approval I am unable to see an ear nose and throat doctor to determine the cause.
I had septoplasty and radio frequency of my turbinates done 2 months ago. I am now being told I have exposed bone in my inferior turbinate where the mucosa was ablated too much. Will the mucosa tissue re grow to cover the exposed bone or will I have to have the bone removed?
HELP!!!! Right nostril collapsed so I had surgery to fix it and they shaved bone down also. While under they noticed these things in left nostril which required burning them off. Which was never something discussed till after which is to late. My issue and concerns is how crooket it looks now on the left. Is it swollen or something needs to be fixed on left to Make look better. It never was like this before and now I am so upset.
I am just recovering from a bad sinus infection. Once the infection cleared I have been experiencing facial pain and pressure which eminates my left nostril to my cheek, molars, and lower eye. My ENT examined me and took a CT scan and says I have a deviated septum with a septal bone spur on the side of the pain. He recommends a septoplasty as a cure for the contact point headache symptoms. Just curious if anyone else has seen patients with these types of symptom and the recommendation.
In the last 6 months, a hard, protruding bump has formed on my nose tip . An ENT examined it and said the tissue had shifted because of a septoplasty from 5+ years ago. However, he did not actually touch it, and I am somewhat skeptical of this diagnosis because the bump is nearly as hard as bone, and the tissue in that area did not used to be hard at all . Furthermore, other than the bump itself, the rest of my nose is exactly the same as it was before. What else could this bump be? Thank you!
