deviated septum surgery how long to heal

Also, I discovered that I have a very deviated septum. My doctor says that if I have a surgery to correct my septum and breath properly while sleeping, the PLMD could also go away. Is this true? If a mild apnea like mine (actually is hypoapnea) is cured, could I also heal the limb movement? Please help. Please. Thank you.

Truth be told, laaz, I am not too sure how serious my condition is - whether I have swollen turbinates from vasomotor rhinitis or not. All I can tell you is I was diagnosed with deviated septum and needs surgery to correct them along with turbinate reduction. I definitely know that I don't have any allergies or sinuses that I am aware of nor do I take medications for any sickness.

while im on the subject, how much bleeding post surgery. and how long is recovery. everyone is different. but maybe just an idea how long.

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!

When I was 15, I broke my nose in a sports accident. The doctor said that it was going to heal by itself and that he wouldn't recommend doing surgery. It did heal rather well but not perfectly, the left side of my nose is slightly thicker now and my septum deviated. I can still breathe well and from outside it is barely noticeable. With that being said, it is clearly visible that my septum is deviated on xrays I did recently concerning my wisdom teeth.

t know if you had surgery yet... but if you did how long till your dizzy, and lightheartedness went away..

I have had this surgery done twice. My last one was 10 years ago. It was an out-pt. I think I was there a total of 12 hours. So, it is a long day. But, most of it you won't remember because you will be asleep. Not sure if they had changed the procedure much. But, I will tell you that when I came out it look like I had 2 tampons sticking out of my nose. They weren't in there long. Oh I wish I could remember how long but, I don't think it was a week.

I know surgery is an option for the deviated septum. But will my nose ever not hurt again??? It also causes so much pressure in my ears that it has aggravated my TMJ. Sure wish I knew then what I know now...

The only reasons to fix your deviated septum would be 1) you are finding it difficult to breathe through your nose 2) you have sleep apnea and fixing your septum may help with CPAP compliance 3) you are having severe, difficult to treat nosebleeds 4) you are looking for cosmetic rhinoplasty (of which a septoplasty may be a part). It is shameful if anyone is trying to frighten you into having this surgery.

But, I just wanted to know if this can lead to pulmonary hypertension if I waited some months for my nasal surgery due to this covid situation.

I'm not sure I'm posting in the right forum, but I thought it was worth a try. I'm going to make this as brief as possible. I went to a doctor complaining about headaches and not being able to breathe on the left side of my nose. The headaches were also on the left side due to pressure from the clogged nostril. He told me I had a deviated septum. I scheduled surgery that day because he said he could fix my problem and make it easier to breathe.

So I went to the ENT today and had them stick that scope up my nose and apparently I have a pretty bad deviated septum ... he gave me a script for a nasal spray and an antibiotic but I'm not sure what the antibiotic is for, I don't like taking antibiotics if I don't have to so I'm hesitant to take that. He mentioned surgery but for the possible future ... I'm hoping the nasal spray will help the allergies and the post nasal drip ...

I have heard of a perforated septum and deviated septum- Can these things lead to a feeling of your eye starting to sink in (it totally is not noticable to look at) its just a slight feeling. What is that all about? AND from there can it cause more damage to your ear drums? Like having a popping or clicking sound when blowing by nose. I would appreciate any advise- insurance issues, surgerys, natural healing, but please dont say to me to stop doing cocaine.

Hi, a deviated nasal septum can cause an obstruction to breathing and correction will ensure that your symptoms will improve. But this may not help correct the post nasal drip. Post nasal drip could be due to a sinus infection, a cold or a chronic allergy. These can lead to a post nasal drip and lead to an irritation in the throat. It could be sinusitis, if it is accompanied by nasal stuffiness and facial pain or pressure. Post nasal drip could also be due to allergens.

I had my deviated septum fix but didnt fix it 100% as they informed me that it may take 2 operation to entirely fix it as it was completely deviated to the left and its all crooked up to the back of my nose. i still experience excessive sweating, sinusitis, tinutis but tonsilitis i havent experience it so far, and its been a year and 1/2 since my surgery. what bothers me now is that everytime my nose gets stuffy i notice that I sweat alot is this related?

Starting last fall I was short of breath. I had a complete cardiac workup with no problems found. I had a brain MRI with and w/o contrast. Along with a small lesion, they found I had sinus issues. I was sent to an ENT Specialist, who put me on prednisone and an antibiotic for 30days. I still had the chronic runny nose, dripping, so was sent for a CT of my sinus'. my sinus are almost shut down, and I have a severe deviated septum. I will have surgery in August.

I'am planning to have sinus surgery (septopasty) to correct a deviated septum and deciding between surgeons. One of the surgeons attaches splints with breathing tubes to each side of the repaired septum, the other surgeon just stitches the 2 sides of the septum together in a procedure called "quilting".

i was on several courses of antibioitcs didnt help at all...

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.

surgery for deviated septum; and eyelid surgery to tighten my eyelids – but they only fixed the problem by about 75%. One oculoplastic doctor that I saw suggested getting Botox shots near my eyes to see if that might help with the problem(she sais that the shots help people about 20% of the time). The other oculoplastic doctor suggested that I have a surgery to get Jones tubes put in. The Botox shots cost $100 to try. Also I don't know how visible the Jones tubes would be.

t see a reason to repair it, so im going to start a field hockey season with a deviated septum. and breathing problems. and lack of sleep due to breathing problems. THANKS DOC The pain from my rib is getting better. i really think it might just have been bruised.

Will it heal if stopped completely. Does the saline spray really help it to heal and is there really a sreay Neosporin in the US? Only heard of oinment? Will these and/or anything correct that issue. Right now, i am not sure if I have a hole, but lots, lots, lots of mucuous and mucuousy bloody as well as occasionaly nose bleeds not caused by anything - not drug; not nothing just spotenous.

My husband had deviated septum surgery several years ago to help aleviate his severe headaches which are connected to his sinuses. It didn't help AT ALL. He still suffers terrible headaches and sinus pressure. We paid a lot of money only for him to be in a lot of pain for a few days and he also had a nasal hemmorage afterward which was pretty scary.
