I had a septoplasty done 6 days ago and got the stitches out today. Ive had a horrible odor in my nose for the past 3 days and it seems to be getting worse. I thought when he took the stitches and packers out it would smell better but its way worse now. Is this bad? When will the smell go away?
Is this normal to have a foul stale odor from a perforation? Smells musty or cheesy and people comment. I previously had sinus surgery and discovered the hole post surgery. I then had a silicone button inserted and now that has been removed it wasnt helping. I do saline rinses daily but the odor still persist. Will surgery mitigate this odor.? When I bend down or lay down its prominent. What are my options for a successful closure and odor remedy? Help please.
I had a Septoplasty & Turbinate reduction 3 weeks ago. I'm having night sweats, cold hands, fatigue, and crusting (slight foul odor). I'm rinsing with saline, and am not taking any medication. I saw my ENT & GP Doctor of which a thorough exam was performed, including urinalysis, blood / hormone workup, of which only minor inflammation was found. They do not feel I have an infection. Why am I getting the night sweats and is this anything to be concerned with?
I had septoplasty one month ago due to repeated sinus infections cold symptoms muscles aches and extream fatigue. After surgery I can see very slow improvement. Less dizziness nd fatigue but frequent sore throat, ear tightness all the time. No more blood and crust now but when I blow my nose some green thick mucus with dark bloody crust come. I HV dirty foul smell, still feel lightheadness sometimes. Asked my surgeon he said f9. My Improvement is OK? How much time it will take fully recovered.
I had endoscopic sinus surgery, septoplasty and turbinate reduction. . extreme headache, dizziness, blurry vision, clear nonsmelly discharge from my vagina,i also have stomach pain. When i take antibiotics the last 10 years i get a yeast infection never this bad though. Went on Augmentin, didnt help at all. Now i have another antibiotic. The thing that has me worried is the new med, he has me taking says side effects are the same as what i already am experiencing! Doc took cultures today
I had a septoplasty, tonsillectomy, and tissue removed from my inner nasal cavity and sinuses about 2 months ago. All of a sudden, I'm starting to notice a severely disgusting smell that's located inside my nose and frequently, when mucus seeps down to my throat, I can smell it coming from there as well. That smell is the only thing I can smell. What can be the cause of this? I called my doctor and he just prescribed antibiotics over the phone. What else can it be? Why does it smell so bad?
Hi, I had a Septoplasty about a year ago to correct a deviated septum and have been coughing up little brown pieces which I have really no idea what the are. They smell quite pungent and are small and brownish grey in colour. Could this be loose cartilliage? Can someone please help as this is very strange to me. Thanks
