Every winter I suffer with chronic sinusitis and each year it is getting worse. At the moment I experience 2-3 attacks a day, mostly in the evening and through the night which I am sure is related to the electric heating. The pain is so bad it wakes me up each night. I am currently taking steroids as advised by my GP. I have a very deviated septum which makes breathing and talking almost impossible. Will a Septoplasty help reduce the sinusitis, headaches and feeling of constant pressure?
I had my surgery over a year ago. 1 month post op I started getting some really bad headaches. The ent assured me it was not related to surgery. Fast forward to two weeks ago, They are so unbearable and last for days. My mri came back I have an obstructed nasal cavity. When I looked at the scans myself I also noticed there is some kind of label on my bone. If I get this corrected will these headaches go away? Is this bone label a foreign object?? Im freaking out.
Since childhood Ive had a few accidents involving nasal trauma. It hadnt bothered me until the last time I injured it during an altercation. Since I've had issues breathing, feeling as though my passageways are blocked and I get facial pain around the upper portion of my nose that leads to headaches. When I rub the sides of my nose together I feel crackling. I don't think it will help but I attached a photo
Hi, My Septoplasty and Turbinate reduction took place 10 days ago. Since then it feels like its been complication after complication. So far there's been: Perforated Septum during surgery (sutured at the time), Hematoma a week later, Headaches and sore throat from cold dry air. Partial collapse of right nostril yesterday. Should I be concerned that so much seems to be going wrong? Thanks in advance!
Had a septoplasy and turbinate reduction 6 days ago. Visit my ENT 2 days ago to have the splints removed and said everything looked good for 4 days. I am now have bad headaches that go from my temple to the middle of my forehead and random throbbing under my eye. Is this normal or should I contact the ENT again tomorrow?
Surgery done on Monday, packing removed Wednesday. Thursday and Friday have a stuffed nose that comes and goes, mucus build up that lined with red blood, and spit that often has red blood balls or lining. Is it normal to have nasal congestion that comes and goes, a runny nose of blood lined mucus, and pressure and fatigue around the sinus area? How long does this generally last? Obviously just breathe through the mouth when congested? Thank you!
It has been 4 weeks since I had sinus surgery and a septoplasty. I have been doing nasal rinses with neilmed 4 times a day and am still on flixonase nasule drops. In the past few days I have been getting bad headaches behind eyes and pain when bending over along with yellow discharge down back of my throat. I dont think its infected as have no other symptoms such as bad smell or fever. Is this normal? Is it likely to be infection? Should I still be getting sinus headaches now? Thanks
I had my surgery 10 days ago and had my nose cleaned 3 days ago at my post op appointment however I'm still really congested to the point of getting really bad headaches that last all day even when I take tylenol for them and today 1 sneezed out part of my stitch. The doctor said it looked good at my appointment and the stitches would dissolve but I'm still concerned
