I had (failed) revision rhinoplasty 6 months ago and had a smell almost straight away after. The smell is now so strong and gets worse if i move the nose eg wrinkling the nose or moving when washing my face. Recently its been super strong at night and even waking me up. Its a really really horrible, foul smell, particularly in one side. Had 2 courses of antibiotics and its still here. Im desperate for a solution.
I had a Septoplasty/Rhinoplasty and turbinate reduction in Nov of 2020. I still had a bad smell in my nose at my 6 month post op appointment, it was treated with an antibiotic but the odor persisted. My surgeon didnt think it was a big issue so I didnt let him know it never went away. One year post-op, I told them again that the odor never subsided. He said everything looked good and chalked it up to allergies. Treated with a steroid, but smell still persists now sadly. At a loss.
7 months ago i got a rhinoplasty/septoplasty. About a month after my surgery i noticed a bad smell but only in my left nostril. I figured it was due to me just having surgery. I am still having that strange smell. I have gone to my surgeon and they looked inside with a camera, and no infection. They also had me do a CT scan for sinitis, that came back clear also. I have no answers and the smell is terrible.
Hi, I underwent Rhinoplasty & Sepoplasty as one operation in August 2020 and there are a lot of issues that I am facing today since post surgery. Firstly since a week after the procedure I have not been able to smell anything and I thought it was covid related but it has been nearly two years now and has had affected my life so much I dont know why I havent been able to smell anything for this long Im really worried.
I had Rhinoplasty done a year ago. Nov 2020. I have had a strange smell in my nose on one side since surgery. The smell is foul but not like death. Its almost like wet dog smell? It doesnt leak bad but it is a small leak from time to time and it definitely smells everyday all day. I am hoping this isnt a CSF leak. What can I do? Ive seen two different plastic surgeons about a revision and I spaced asking them about the scent/leak. They have looked and felt my nose.
I had my surgery in march and I found out after my surgery From my ENT when I came in that I did not need any sort of turbinate surgery., I needed allergy shots before anything g. My PS told me different .I had to if I wanted my nose done. My taste & smell are awful. I can't smell and I can't taste much. I can taste very sweet , very salty and my love for hot sauce has gone away. Everything's to hot. How long does this take to go away?. I have lost 10lbs since surgery .
I am on day 11 post up and I had an open rhinoplasty. My columella is healing fine however just inside my nostril the incisions on both sides seems to be scabbing over and it smells odd. Is it infected? What do I do if that's infected ? Can I use Neosporin? I admit that I did use it before but I don't think it's helping.. :(
