I have a small white piece of what looks like bone sticking out of my septum on one side of my nose (the originally deviated side), this side of my nose is also more sensitive and if i lightly touch that side, I can feel it in my whole septum. I have been very careful not to bump my nose and have been sleeping elevated since the surgery, I use q tips soaked in saline to clean the nose and apply antibiotic treatment. Could my septum have shifted on its own and caused the cartilage to expose itself?
Im about 6 weeks post opp, I got a turbinate reduction, septoplasty, with little of rhino too but my nose was not broken during the surgery. I was bumped in the nose and I feel like Im constantly getting punched in the face. Ive been freaking out since yesterday. My nose was really sensitive and in pain already I honestly cant tell how hard the bump was because it felt like a big punch. The person who hit my nose said it wasnt that hard but I feel like it has shifted looks uneven
I got a turbinectomy and septoplasty to fix a slight deviated septum blocking my left nostril. After removing the splints on week later I could breath fine from both nostrils, but now, 3 days after, my left nostril is completely shut and feels worse than before. Did my septum shift back?
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!
