i was told in a routine exam by ENT dr that i have a deviated septum(left nostril blocked-air comes out but not in!!)

like i've heard from other people. i have problems when i have a cold though and when i close my right nostril

I saw my ENT doctor this morning and she showed the result of CT scan. Indeed I have Deviated Septum and she suggests me to be operated. This Deviated Septum explains excessive mucus in my throat. However, I am still wandering if it causes some bloody mucus in my throat in the morning. For that I worry about my lungs.
m going?). Once the septum is straight, the mucus should drain properly out of the front of your nose and hopefully won't bother your lungs.
Second, an allergist would be able to determine whether you have any allergies that may affect your lungs. If you are not allergy to the mold spores present, then no the lung symptoms are not from the wet year.
I have a deviated septum in my nose. i am not able to breathe very well out of the left nostril. I am not sure if that has been affecting my breathing, but i feel it may be possible.
About a week ago, i slipped and feel in the car, and my left side below my rib cage slammed into the steering wheel. Ever since, when i have been having problems breathing (usually at night), i get a sharp pain in the area when i take deep breaths.
If the nurse swabbed you up to your deviated septum, then it could be either two things. It could be a CSF leak or an infection of your deviated septum. Most likely it is an infection caused by the nurse shoving that swab deep up in there, going into your deviated septum, and ripped open a blood vessel. All you can do is take some antibiotics, or see a ENT doctor for further analysis.

It's very hard to say, as each person is different, as is our healing processes.
I too have a deviated septum, and was told by my ENT that surgery was not an option for me.
I have had sinus troubles my entire life...adenoids were removed when I was 6, broke my nose at 7 and 12...I've had issues ever since.
year 2001 When i started working, i had my physical/medical exam everything went OK. since medical exams doesnt include xrays/ctscan of the head the deviated septum was not detected, so i was unaware that something in me was wrong. year 2004 when i visited a dentist to extract my tooth, the dentist notice that my jaw is locking and my 2 front upper teeth is not align in the midline of my nose, so i was advised to have dental braces, due to finances i didnt bother to have it.
s of sinus infection. But it souns like the severe deviated septum is the cause of this, not primarily bacterial. Will this probably mean surgery? Websites make it sound simple, out-pt treatment. Would like to have the real scoop from real people who have had this done. I'm not looking to beautify my nose, just be able to breath thru it, not snore, and not constantly blowing it. I would appreciate any input. Thank you for your help.
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.

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)?
Well he did make it easier to breathe out of the clogged side, but he moved the septum too far and now I cannot breathe out of what was my "good" side. My headaches are worse than they were before the surgery. The bone in my nose feels wierd and the top it off the doctor said this is all "normal." Well it's definitely NOT normal. It has been 7 months since the surgery and I still cannot breathe.
