I finally saw an ENT and he saw I have a deviated septum and enlarged turbinates and concha bellus. My ENT wants to correct the septum and reduce turbinates and remove concha belluse sinuses.. I chose to only have my turbinates reduces with local anesthetic, I think it still puts me to sleep and he's going to reduce turbinates using heated catherisation.. I'm a little nervous to have this down because I've heard of empty nose syndrome and also potential sideffects..
ive been having sinus problems for months now i finally got results of my can scan and i dont know exactly what was said by heart..but i have a deviated septum,enlarged turbinates,puse is my left maxillary sinus,and i think she said an air pocket also..so im suppose to get surgery done in april..the 3 listed are septoplasty,endoscopic sinus,and turbinectomy..i have no problem with any of these except what i read about the turbinectomy when it comes to empty nose syndrome..
ve read up on many medical forums and websites and I seriously think I have enlarged turbinates and/or a deviated septum. If I put my finger up one nostril, I can't go up more than about a 1/4 inch because the turbinates on the side are sticking out so far against the septum. The inside of my nose has always been very red and at times looks swollen. This nasal congestion has completely taken over my life. All I think about during the day is "Will I be able to breathe normally?
In July 2018 I was diagnosed at the ER with anxiety due to a panic attack I had. I had existing obstructed breathing issues prior due to enlarged turbinates and a supposed deviated septum, in which I had a surgery done 4 years back. Fast forward now I have had a multitude of symptoms due to the anxiety but now im thinking my obstructed breathing is possibly due to a nasal problem and not so much having to do with anxiety.
when i was 17 i had the hottest girlfriend you could possibly dream of and then i swear to god as soon as i turned 18 my nose actually got bigger. i got in a fight and i broke my nose and i had a deviated septum. the doctor told me he recommends surgery and i was soo happy cuz i thought my nose would be beautiful again, but actually after the surgery it looks pretty much the same.
Do you have allergies, a deviated septum, or enlarged turbinates? These are issues that your your doctor can address. Dr. Mehregan's comment is also right on the mark. Most people who are chronic mouth breathers have jaw structures that aggravates tongue collapse, especially when you're on your back, and especially if you're in deep sleep, due to muscle relaxation.
I finally visited a ENT for my allergies and he noticed I have a deviated septum and large turbinates. Is it normal to breath from one nostril at a time with the other cometly blocked or is that an indication of imflamation in the sinuses. I do get alot of nasle poping everymorning and its like good relief when they pop. I can never have both nostriles cometley open. My symptoms are dizzyness, sneezing the minute I walk outdoors and hedachs in the temples. and top part of the head.

Problem of congested nose - I saw a doctor for my nose blocking problem. He told it as Rhinosis. Fluzep and Ibuprofen tablets were given.
After few days I saw an ENT. He has done Endoscopic Rhinoscopy. He told the problem is - Hypertrophic Turbinates & Deviated Nasal Septum. He asked me to stop other medicine and gave me Aerius Tablet and Avamys Spray.
Hi, the most common cause for nasal obstruction is Deviated nasal septum (DNS). This condition leads to obstruction and breathing difficulty. This can lead to sinus infection, ear infection and headaches.
Other possibilities are laryngeal web, asthma, any structural abnormalities in the nasal passage such as nasal polyps, hypertrophied turbinates etc.
You need to undergo detailed examination of nose and radiography of the sinuses to rule out existing sinusitis.

m sure you could imagine the awful smells there! I even had a deviated septum and enlarged turbinates and was stuffy most of the time, but I could still smell every scent as though my face was right in it. Anyway, 2 weeks ago I had surgery to repair my septum and reduce my turbinates so I could breathe through my nose again, and since then I haven't been able to smell much.

I had a deviated septum and reduction of turbinates 11 days ago. Yesterday I went out to run some errands, I live in California and the sun was quite hot. At night I noticed a semi round tan spot on my nose. Is this something that appeared as a result of the sun exposure to the tender skin? or will it go away soon? Please help, I am concern.
Hi guys.. so my heart goes out to everyone who'se dealing with these symptoms.. because they are enough to really disable someone.. this has been going on for over 3 years now and it's just gotten severely worse this past year.. I just saw an ENT because of the constant pressure/fullness with both ears, nose is constantly clogged.. and sometimes it switches.. ENT only told me I had a deviated septum and that he didn't beleive in surgery..
What is more, I went to an ENT just weeks ago in 2018, had a CT scan of the sinuses done, and the ENT tells me that the result is that I have a deviated septum, AGAIN, and will need a repeat surgery for that and to shave down the turbinates. This is ridiculous. I cannot have a septoplasty every 10 years, and furthermore, it accomplished nothing and relieved none of my symptoms the first time! I feel like these forums are pretty useless as well.
Hi, welcome to the forum, the important causes needed to be ruled out are Deviated nasal septum (DNS) and allergic rhinitis. These conditions can lead to sinus infection, ear infection and headaches.
Other possibilities are laryngeal web, asthma, any structural abnormalities in the nasal passage such as nasal polyps, hypertrophied turbinates etc.
Recurrent infection is sign of low immunity. You need to increase immunity by proper nutritious food, regular exercise, mental fitness etc.
I've been diagnost with a deviated septum and excercised induced astma and was wondering if any one had septum fixed? Would it help with sinus infections and breathing for asthma? Any deviated septum repair stories out there?
It obviously gets enlarged during the attacks of common cold and appears red because of the congestion. During normal days the turbinates shrink and they are not very much visible.
But there is something you need to clarify, does your cousin have any recurrent sneezing, running nose, nasal block and headache, if so there are chances that she might develop allergic nasal polyposis (which appears as pearly white swellings), rarely do they get infected and appear red.
I was a chronic sinus sufferer and had severe sinus headaches and pressure and trouble breathing through my nose. Had an MRI and was told by ENT I had enlarged turbinates. So I had Turbinate Reduction Surgery about 7 weeks ago, went with the Coblation method, because it was less invasive. The procedure was a snap had very little problems until about 2 weeks after the procedure. My lymph nodes in my neck and under my chin started swelling.
