deviated-septum

Avatar n tn Now the inside of my nose has been eaten away. I have been told by my ENT that I have a deviated septum now and acute chronic sinunitus. He gave me a great receipe for a nasal solution that helps but not enough. In the mornings, my nose is so dry and stopped up that it hurts. When I try to blow all the muscus out, it is dry and hard so it hurts terribly. I have used tweesers to help pull some out but it is getting annoying. It seems to be so far up my nose that I can't get to it easily.
Avatar f tn My nose felt stuffy and I had a whistle that would never go away so when I look within otoscope I noticed I have a hole through and through my nasal septum and I have never done cocaine in my life I was using a ton of Nasal sprays and every over-the-counter medications to feel better.It's about the size of an eraser of a pencil. I know the cartilage will never grow back but will the skin regrow and cover the whole.
Avatar f tn my hubby did not have a deviated septum, if so he would have needed surgery this is gross, and actual chunk of his nose feel out when we was younger as a result of snorting and his nose is fine now i have to get off here soon, but i will check in tommorow if you stick your finger up your nose can you feel a hole? scabs? or is it just really flexible?
Avatar n tn Is it possible to get a deviated septum after only 2 months of cocaine use? When i blow my nose, it hurts and then a piece of skin will come out. What should i do about this? (Yes, i realize stop doing cocaine is the best thing. Spare me those comments.
Avatar m tn cocaine. it could be a hole in septum , or irritated sinus cavity. i would bet at that amount it is the sinus cavity. it will probably heal if you stop using now, but it wouldnt hurt to see your doctor. i had a busted blood vessel in my sinus, and i suffered from spontaneous nose bleeds , till the burnt both ends shut. snorting cocaine will slowly "peel" the skin away in the nose and sinus a layer at a time. not sure about the saline spray, i would say let it heal on its own.
Avatar f tn It seemed to be bigger on one side and Easley touchable on the right more than the left. But belive this might be due to the fact i think i have a slightly deviated septum. Because i couldnt stop touxhing and pushing proding around in my nose i made it bleed and infected a bad infection and sinus one too.
Avatar n tn Im pretty sure i dont have a deviated septum because i dont think i have been using long enough or often enough (6 months a couple times a week). But my left septum is inflamed and red and gets sore and bleeds when i use that side. I know everyone is gonna tell me to stop especially that nostril. Please no lectures or advice on kickin the habbit just wonder if anyone else ever experienced this, the outcome, or any insight would be helpful. Thank you...

Avatar f tn is it because my deviated septum is visibly crooked there? (you can see my septum on the inside of my left nostril) and the hole to breathe in is smaller? or is it the allergies/small sinus infection? or could it even be really bad Anxiety making me feel this way? Any response is greatly appreciated. Or if somebody else has had this as well that would be great.
Avatar f tn It can always be something else....some worse...some not - - if you do have a hole in your septum its not a big thing...withdrawing the offending agent is the standard answer...so your already doing that - - Even if you are whistling, you are the one that notices it - not generally like a fire truck or anything. Use a saline nose rinse (walgreens has a good one) and keep an extra sharp eye for infections...sensitive nose, redness, elevated temp....you know the drill.
Avatar f tn Hi, I have a severely deviated septum on the left side and was getting a Covid swab by an overzealous nurse. She poked me all the way up the left side where my septum was deviated, felt resistance and kept going. I felt a sudden bout of pain and she finally retracted the swab. Two days later I wake up with clear salty liquid dripping down my throat. I also have a massive daily headache, eye pressure and sensitivity to light.

Avatar m tn I have a deviated septum. I've been searching on google for a while now and I think my case is one of the most deviated septum ever seen :| And I would like to know if that would be easy to fix it and what would it cost in Canada! And I just uploaded pics on my profile! Thanks!
Avatar f tn Deviated septum cause low oxygen in the body and it may leads to digits clubbing due to low oxygen in the body are this both related deviated septum and low oxygen
Avatar m tn i was diagnosed year 2007 with severe deviated septum prior to this i have been experiencing some weird feelings about my health throughout my childhood , teenage and adolescent years. Let me share you my experiences about my health so you could enlighten me if those weird feelings are related to sinusitis/deviated septum as what i am thinking of or you might have experience the same thing.
Avatar f tn Hello, I wanted to know the risksof having a deviated septum fixed. I had this problem for over 10 years and it seems to keep coming back. I had it fix twice before. I am noticing that the cartilage in my nose seems less so I am concerned. I don't want to have to keep getting surgery to correct my deviated septum. Is there any other options (besides nose sprays)?
4556201 tn?1356445652 Any help or thoughts would be greatly appreciated. In Elementary school, I fractured my nose pretty bad. Then in my early teens, I realized I had a 'bump' on the bridge, & a deviated septum. The 'bump' is caused by 2 super sharp bones sticking out. (It's so extreme/sharp that family & friends I let touch it were *all* really shocked by it, & assured me it was*not* normal.
1329703 tn?1275158081 I have a deviated septum that was found when my allergy shots started working but I still couldn't breathe through my nose. I also have mild sinus issues with them clogging and a mild infection (normally my immune system gets it under control within a week or so). I have the surgery in a couple of weeks so I can't comment on the long term affects yet but I'm hopeful it will help!
538090 tn?1213808112 I was diagnosed with a deviated septum and was told by my ENT specialist that i need a surgery ( September 8th, 2008) along with turbinate reduction. I was doing alright until I had a bout of flu four weeks ago and this made my life miserable. Then came along bronchitis which made my breathing through the mouth impossible. I am still having a little wheezing on my left chest and took an x-ray yesterday. I will have an answer within two days to see what the actual diagnosis will be.
Avatar f tn I got in to see the ENT dr a week ahead of schedule. I have chronic sinusitis, scars on both ears from past infections, and "fairly severe deviated septum,". He had trouble getting the scope up my nose, had to go to a smaller one. He put me on a "push" of prednisone, antibiotics, and Nasonex. Also scheduled a CT scan of sinus's in a month to see if infection is gone. Then he said we would decide what to do. My sx were a constant drippy nose, pressure in ears, headaches.
Avatar m tn Can you get a deviated septum if you snort pain pills? Like hydrocodiene, percs, norcos.?
Avatar m tn I have been having chronic problems with post nasal drip and pressure on the bridge of my nose. It's not terribly bothersome, rather annoying. Let me explain what I mean by post nasal drip. I feel like there is constantly mucus stuck in the back of my nose. It isn't really dripping down my throat, rather just sitting in the back of my nose. It feels thick and I often have to snort in order to get it out. It is not discolored, just clear/milky white.
