Hi, I need some advice whether I should get septoplasty or not, whether it is worth it, what benefits can I experience. I'm 28 year old male, height: 5'11, weight: 78kg, Indian. I feel I have a deviated septum, most of the time I have difficulty breathing from the left nostril, right nostril breathing is fine. During summers sometime I experience nose bleeds especially when my nose get dry, I think all of my nose bleeds came from the left nostril.
Hi, I recently got a kenalog shot to the right side of my nose as the wall kept falling and made it hard to breath ( felt like sucking out of a stray every time I breath through that nostril. After the shot my nose seems to have opened and there is more space to breath, however it feels cold when I take in breaths and nose is dry, seems like I'm getting air but no air similar to ENS. Is dryness and cold air breathing normal after a kenalog injection? Thank you
I had a septoplasty with inferior turbinate submucous resection oo(oabout 50%) about 8 months ago. I also had a rhinoplasty. Since then the air I breathe in feels cold (it used to feel colder) and my nose gets very dry at night time. I have no problems breathing via my nose. Since the surgery the roof of my mouth feels dry and cold. My tongue is really dry. The surgery was a complex one as my turbinates were very enlarged. My doctor says its all healing well. When/will this stop?
I had a Septoplasty in April this year, all went well and I now can breathe a lot better through my right nostril, since this surgery and has got worse as the time gone on. My throat is extremely dry all the time, I cannot produce any mucus on the right hand side and to be fair I have very little on the left which makes my throat extremely dry that it feels like I have an obstruction/narrowed? Is this normal or is there anything I can do to help? Thank you Im advance. Craig
I recently had a septoplasty about a month ago. My nose was very dry and extremely clotted, the doctor removed these clots about 4 times since my surgery but I guess I have developed a septal perforation because of the surgery. My nose continues to clot severely and it is very very dry, I know that the perforation was developed due to removing the clots, I could feel it ripping away at my septum, but I am just wondering if my nose will stop clotting and moisten up, thanks
I want to start off saying that I had an deviated septum surgery about 4 years ago. I have a septal perforation on the right side of my nose. It has become big to the point that my right cheek looks a bit flat and the tip of my nose has changed shape. I am having difficulty breathing, dry nose, congestion, pain from time to time, and numbness mostly head area. I am not sure what to do at this point.
I find my throat very dry causing me to have trouble swallowing almost everything except for fluids. This also causes loss of appetite and sleepless nights. Could something have happened during surgery that injured my throat as this wasn't an issue before.
I broke my nose and needed to have the deviated septum fixed. The surgeon wanted to also do a turbinate reduction. So now, 2 1/2 years later, every time I breath in the air is too cold and dry. It is uncomfortable to say the least and bothers me all day every day. The only good day is when it is very warm and raining. Spraying salt water in my nose makes it worse. Any ideas for how to improve this would be greatly appreciated.
I had a septoplasty and bilateral turbinate reduction and cyst removal from maxillary right sinus 2 days ago. I still have heavy brownish drainage with bright red streaks. My post op care said to keep dressing clean and dry. No packing. My nose is so uncomfortable and I also feel like I can taste it in my throat. And I'm spitting large wads of mucus and blood. Pain mild and the most bothersome issue is the congestion. When will the drainage stop and when can I expect the congestion to subside?
