#NasalSeptoplasty #DeviatedSeptum #Breathing
MEDICAL ANIMATION TRANSCRIPT: Your nasal septum is a thin wall that divides the inside of your nose into right and left sides. It's made of soft, flexible cartilage in the front and bone in the back. A thin layer of tissue called the nasal mucosa covers the septum. If you have a deviated septum, your septum is bent instead of straight. A deviated septum can block air flow through your nose. The procedure to fix problems with your nasal septum is called a nasal septoplasty. To begin the procedure, the surgeon will make an incision in the mucosa inside one of your nostrils. Then, the mucosa will be lifted away from the septum so the surgeon can see it. To straighten the septum, the surgeon may make a few cuts in the cartilage to relax it. Sometimes, the bent part of the septum may need to be removed. Your surgeon will leave behind enough cartilage to support your nose. After the procedure, the incision will be closed with stitches. In some cases where your septum isn't removed, more stitches will be passed through your septum to keep it straight. Your surgeon may put splints in your nose to support the septum while it heals. The splints will be removed after a few days. If you want to find out more about nasal septoplasty, talk to your healthcare provider.

Got this surgery done today. Didn’t feel and currently don’t feel any pain at all. Only discomfort is not being able to sneeze/blow your nose afterwards. Surgery was about 30min and I napped like a baby. Good luck to anyone having this surgery!
Hey, did they put nose packings after the operation and if so how did you manage to only breathe through the mouth?
Hiii great to hear from u n wish u a speedy recovery . Where did u get it done and can u plz tell me the procedure u r doctor followed as they would have explained u upfront the surgery. Even I need to get it done too my Dr was telling me they will block both sides of the nostrils for a day or 2 it seems then how will I breathe I was thinking and when sleeping we can't keep out mouth open all the time I don't know my doctor's procedure is like this. If u can let me the details so that if possible will get it done from where u got it done and distance doesn't matter as I need proper procedure and care 😊
@@miodragvujosevic9748 oh god same question here . They will stuff both the nostrils then how do we breathe while sleeping
Can you breath from your nose after the operation?
@@miodragvujosevic9748 sorry for late reply but they did put two nose packings about 5 inches long each for two nights. Defiantly was the hardest part lol. You just feel super congested and yes you have to sleep breathing through your mouth.
just got this done 5 days ago, i don’t think i’m taking enough pain meds because DANG it’s sore but the splints are coming out tomorrow, yay! hoping it fixed my breathing issue
edit: splints are out and dude it feels like i have a third lung i can breathe so much better
What was the total amount you paid brother?
@@SHOOLIN07half of his kidney and half of a apendix
I just had a septoplasty yesterday. Hoping it's all worth it!
@@SHOOLIN07 don’t remember the exacts but it was 4 figures 😬 insurance covered most of it tho
@@T-rick so far it mostly is! was told by my dad(who’s had his septum done himself) the swelling might last 4-6 months and my breathing will fluctuate, which ended up being very true. i will warn ya, it may get worse before it gets better, i’m having to wear nasal strips to bed every now and then when i used to only wear them when i was sick
also if you’re unlucky like me you might catch a sinus infection right after getting splints out 😭 hoping that doesn't happen to you tho! wash yo hands broski
I had this surgery to fix my loud snoring. It didn't bother me but girlfriends always complained. Before I got married I had the surgery. My nose and throat were painful for a week but it was worth it.
How much it cost ?
@@sooyasbomjan2 I have no idea how much it cost, I am in the UK and it was an NHS hospital.
I was in hospital for three nights following the surgery.
@@richardwheelerrw 15 mins*
did your nose look very different?
@@diyaroy3475 No, there was no visible alteration, the changes were all internal.
I had this surgery done 3 days ago, along with a tonsillectomy(the removal of tonsils) all at the same time. My nose isn’t in pain like my throat is and I heard that the removal of the splints is the best feeling ever, so definitely looking forwards to that. My nose does feel stuffed up and I was bleeding quite a bit after the surgery for like a whole day. I’m just glad I finally did it and can’t wait to breathe normally.
So hows the condition now?
does it help your nose look less crooked?
@@Medwin88 the nose pain hasn’t gotten worse, it’s actually way better now and even the swelling has gone down. No bleeding or anything anymore, just waiting for the splints to come out this Thursday
@@jeymapereira2800 yeah in certain people yes but I can’t tell on mine yet, it’s still slightly swollen.
My nose looks crooked externally too so does it will be fixed?
You guys are really something else. Your videos are the top of the league.
Writing this comment from the hospital bed, just had the surgery a few hours ago. I haven’t been able to breath properly in years due to my deviated septum. The surgery lasted for almost 2 hours and I was asleep the whole time so I didn’t felt anything. My nose bleeds and it kinda hurts if i touch it, but the worst part is that you can’t breath. I heard from many people that this surgery is LIFE CHANGING for those with nose problems. Can’t wait to leave the hospital.
Y’all stay safe and take care of your health.
Edit: Oh yeah, and you are not allowed to smoke for like 4-6 weeks for a properly recovery, maybe this is a good time to quit smoking..
Edit2: today it’s sunday, I had the surgery on monday 6 days ago. I have good news, I CAN BREATH ! I left the hospital on wednesday, and I found out that I had a deviated septum surgery AND a ethmoid sinusitis surgery.
My nose gets better everyday, it still bleeds a little but everything seems fine. I highly recommend to do the surgery if you need to do it. I’m gonna be straight, it’s a painfully experience, I barely slept 5-6 hours in 2 nights, and the waiting time before I got those pads off my nose was killing me. Totally worth it.
I wish you speed recovery dude!
I'm planning to run this surgery soon but my nasal bone is also deviated after I had a painful car accident which gonna be a tough case. but really looking forward to doing it.
I just had a surgery 4 weeks ago in my face to remove screws and plates that were placed earlier after the accident and I used to smoke cigarettes befor the surgery, it's been 4 weeks now and I used this chance to quit smoking and I really recommend you to do the same!
@@zeyad2i thank you! 🙏🏻 I’m sorry for your accident, wish you luck with your next surgery, be brave, everything will be ok ! Wish you health and speed recovery!
@@singhaman1036 thank you! 🙏🏻 I highly recommend you to go to a specialist doctor, maybe you also have a deviated septum. I used to be addicted to nasal decongestant but it has terrible side effects for your nose.
If you need to do the surgery, be brave and do it, don’t post pone it, wish you health!
Reading y'alls stories really help...I'm scheduled to have surgery in a week. I have a deviated septum due to a bad car accident when I was 11...I am now 60. I look forward to breathing naturally, not snoring and hopefully no more bad sinus infections!
How long before you can breathe through your nose afterwards ?
I am due my op soon but I am worried because I have asthma and suffer with anxiety and the thought of not being able to breathe through my nose at all of I struggle with my mouth aswell is scary and I don't know what to do ?
I am a bit over 1-week post-op. My surgery was a bit complicated a required a cartilage graph.
The process took 5 hours under general anesthesia. The Dr gave me enough pain medication the only thing I felt was discomfort.
The first 3 days were awful. The sleeping position and breathing through your mouth. As well I felt kinda sick from the anesthesia. I had a head ace and my gums were sore. I didn't sleep at all in 2 days..maybe 15 minutes. So it made my headache much worse. I basically stayed in my room with the lights off.
After 4 days. I stopped taking all pain meds, including Tylenol. Breathing through your mouth is downright uncomfortable. My mout was always dry. I bought some dry mout spay, it helped a bit. I had to sleep elevated so it added to my discomfort.
I just had the stints removed. And GUYS. That feeling when they are removed. After having an obstructed nostril my whole life has no words. Simply the happiest day of my life. That first breath of fresh air.
Of course, the first few days are hard. But don't let this discourage you from having literally a new breath of fresh air.
I did lose my sense of smell and taste. My Dr said it should return in a few weeks or up to 3 months. Very likely it will. The most painful part. Was removing the stitches. It stung a bit. Nothing to take medication for. And it was quickly shadowed by that first breath of fresh air.
I won't do nose surgery for cosmetics. But to enhance my quality of life. Absolutely! It's a life-changing miracle. I would forever be grateful to the doctors and staff that made this life-changing surgery possible for me.
I have just had a scan and hoping that I require the same surgery! .. I’ve had to breathe through my mouth my whole life and recently in the last 6 months have lost 90% of taste and smell. I hope the surgery fixes my problem!
How are you now? Can you smell and taste again? I have an obstructed nostril I think, and I can't smell very well.
@fruffers , my taste and smell started coming back after a month. 2 months, it was fully back to normal. I had my last post-op with my surgeon about a month ago. She told me everything was still healing. She said my nose was still swollen. But I honestly can't tell. And if I ever have any issues, to come back. She still advised me not to do anything. That would risk me hitting my nose for at least one year. I bumped my nose a couple of of times. But it doesn't hurt.
If anyone thinks they have something wrong with their nose. Ans it's affecting their life. It doesn't hurt to see a Dr. Sure, the first couple of weeks sucked. That's a given. But I'm not truamized by it. And it wasn't the worst thing I ever experienced.
I honestly wish I done it sooner. But I got scared off by watching these reality TV show surgery nose jobs. I think they over dramatize the uncomfort.s
I was super emotional. Like things like the smallest thing would make me cry. But the Dr said that's common for any surgery. Your very sleep deperived because of the new sleeping posture. You have a low appetite and not eating. You are not leaving your bed or going out. So what do you really expect? But I'm good now. :)
How do you know your sense of smell returned to normal? Do you have a standard? Like, are you aware of how much of your room you can smell? If you can't smell it the same, you'd know it returned to a lesser degree? I think people are clueless about their breadth and depth of smell, particularly if they are busy. They don't have a standard based on any one setting with which they can measure it.
my doctor didn't put in splints. but my gosh I had a septoplasty and turbinoplasty. my nose used to be so BLOCKED! it was so annoying not being able to breathe. This was so worth it! i'm so glad I can breathe clearly!
How did you find the surgery?
My septum is bent much more adversely than any other people on this planet but it keeps one nostril clear enough so that I can breathe clearly.
@@OlgaPlaysMatch-3Game This was me too. and for a long time I didn't realize it was because my septum was crooked. my nose was constantly runny on one side. it was horrible.
@@richardwheelerrw I went through Kaiser Permanente. they found a great Dr. for me.
was it painful? my doctor recommended me to do both of those too but i’m scared
I had a nasal septoplasty done about 20 years ago. This video helped me understand the anatomy much better!
The best septoplasty animation i’ve seen 👍🏻
I was just reading about it in the book and now this procedure is being seen in a practical form. Thanks nucleus media 🙏
Can you tell how much it's cost ??
@@Shakir-ng2my between Rs. 40,000 and Rs. 60,000.
I had this surgery done maybe 4 years ago. Took about 30 minutes and the doctor told me he was doing 13 of them that day! The toughest part is right after your surgery, because your nostril is constantly stuff and you are not allowed to blow your nose. After about a week and the doctor gives you the ok to blow your nose, you will likely blow out the dried crusty scab that was left from the surgery. Sounds scary but it definately fixed my issue.
Was it painful?im scared to do mine😅
@@abdulfariz69 not painful at all. In fact 0 pain. But the worst part is not being able to breathe out of one of your nostrils for a week.
@@kermit1 only not breathe out 1 nostril or both ?
I am due to have mine done soon but I haven't been able to breathe out my nostrils for some time now
@@richardgallagher121 well I only had a problem with one nostril, not both. So for a week I was only able to breathe out of one. After about a week I was able to breathe out of both.
@@abdulfariz69 its not at all..... I've just done mine today and the only problem is it feels like you have so many stuff inside ur nose the first day
I'm so happy to have discovered this channel ❤️ it helps me a lot and also gives me general knowledge which I use to look more smart in front of my teachers 🤣🤣
don't use this technique to get likes and heart
@@Jakesullyy i didn't do anything wrong ??? 🥱🥱 If ur jealous then tha door is that way 👉🏻🚪
⁰⁰
I will be going through Septoplasty in 2 days. Wish me luck and speedy recovery.
Hope you have a very successful outcome!
How did it go?
Update?
I had this surgery about a month ago and it has been the best decision ever! I had a deviated septum, chronic rhinitis, sleep apnea and everything else that comes with nose issues. I was literally not breathing right at all, constantly spraying my nose with Vicks severe nasal spray and that wasn’t enough. I couldn’t even sleep a normal sleep because my nose would close up on me. I even had the Vivaer Procedure done previously and that did not work either and that ENT Dr. refused to continue to help me. I thank God I found this other doctor that actually recommended this surgery along with turbinate reduction. The first week is a bit tough because of the bleeding, swelling and pain. But it goes away and the meds do help along with the saline wash and antibiotic ointment. The splints were removed within a week and that was amazing! I am so happy I breath again like a normal healthy person.
hey! how are you and your nose doing? i got mine fixed in october
Hey i have this surgery in like a few days and im scared cus ive seen many people complaint about their nose increasing in size or spreading (if that makes any sense lmao) after the surgery..
@@zainabneedshelp hi no there is really no change in the size or shape of your nose. In my experience I have seen no change in appearance if thats what you mean.
@@vic7but doesn’t it make your bone straighter?
Hi, could you please tell me if it helped with your snoring?
ty
for the clarity
Very informative - GREAT video!
I love this channel so much! I am a science teacher !
Thanks for the sharing these types of video
I love this channel.
I am lucky to have discovered this channel. It’s very useful
Just had my septoplasty surgery done yesterday due to a deviated septum. Was released late last night but on the road to recovery. Cant wait to start to finally breath properly through both nostrils 😊. They put you to sleep which was the bit i was dreading, you just get dizzy and knock off. Next minute i was awake and it's all done. Anyone thinking about going for it, just do it !!
How are you now?
Is their any pain in your nose and any sign of surgery there?
@ClashGamer_K Yh it's fine, no pain, no sign of surgery either. I'm back to doing my normal activities. Just when I'm cleaning I'm still rinsing with warm water and salt. Also avoid blowing nose hard but do it lightly after a week or 2 after surgery.
@@sabzm3287damn that’s fast. I just had my surgery one week ago. Had my splints removed today. She said I won’t be 100% and able to do strenuous activities for another 4/5 weeks and it’s literally a 6-12 month recovery because of the swelling afterwards and how everything heals.
@Greenthumb6a wishing you a speedy recovery. I'm 4 weeks in now and have managed to resume with pretty much all activities lol. Take care and stay safe.
Had this surgery FESS-SEPTOPLASTY-MAIT.
The first night was seriously rough with my nose fully packed and I had to breathe with my mouth. The effect of anesthesia and lack of sleep due to mouth breathing made the first night really hard but I believe I will get better soon and am hoping for an optimistic recovery.
Done in local or general anaesthesia?
@@RoLeX95448general anesthesia
oh same here, the first few nights after surgery i slept with a wedge pillow to keep my head elevated, and with the addition of pain meds i had some seriously weird dreams 😭 i also learned that oxycodone apparently makes me sleep talk
Just had this done yesterday. So far, no pain what so ever. I haven’t even needed to take any of the pain meds the doc gave me. My throat was abit dry and swore after the anaesthetic but that’s better today!
has your breathing improved?
@@RAHUL31_ 200% improvement in breathing, would recommend for deviated septum

@@scottlee7993hello what were your symptoms before surgery?
Muito obrigado por me fazer entender a cirurgia pela qual passei
Thank you for the informative video. I just had a septoplasty surgery and reduction of fractures of bones 3 days ago due to an accident I had. Nose feeling blocked and there is some discomfort.
3 days since I've had the surgery. Bled a lot on the first day and a bit swollen but other than that there's been nothing else. No pain (except when I touch it ofc) Its not swollen anymore and getting better each cleaning session since day 1 after surgery. Already can breathe more than before its amazing
Do you need to breath through mouth ?
@@dragoljubdjordjevic4762 If u need this surgery chances are you already breathe through ur mouth. But yes you need to breathe through ur mouth for a week or two after the surgery. I took the plates out yesterday from my nose and I've never smelled and breathe so much ever, I also had the best sleep ever in my life. I don't regret this surgery one bit. And no it doesn't leave any scarring either.
My left nostril is blocked, right side is ok. I am scared of mouth breathing and dry mouth. I think i breath on mouth during sleep but not sure.
@@dragoljubdjordjevic4762 if you have trouble breathing you should get the surgery done i recommend it
hey! how’s your nose nowadays?
Man idk how yall are so strong got the surgery done on my birthday on Wednesday it was the worst pain I’ve ever felt on the first day but my doctor said my septum was really bad
Thanks
Just got this surgery done yesterday, today is my second day of recovery, technically, due to the early time my surgery took place. Personally the first day was the worst so far, second day had increased swelling but the pain is bearable. Throughout my whole life I’ve had a deviated septum and it was never a topic of concern until I finally went to see a specialist and discussed all my options. The best decision for me was to advance with the procedure, I’m now hoping for an improvement in life now that recovery will bring breathing with more ease 😁
just had it done a few hours ago but havent felt any pain and havent needed painkillers, its a pain in the ass though because my nose is clogged with blood and less appealing extras and its causing my ears to pop with the pressure when i swallow but no pain so ill survive
Edit - had my splints removed a couple days ago and have been able to breath properly for the first time in over 10 years, first night i slept for over 12 hours and it was completely worth it
Perfect timing as my last video of the night
A video of genioplasty of reduction please 🙏🙏🙏🤩 awesome channel
I hope someday I can get this done with a really good surgeon as I didn’t even realized this existed and what I really needed to end my breathing suffering . When I’m younger I thought I can tolerates it and not a biggie but till the last 3 years where my allergies was taking over and it just pushing me to breathe harder . I barely can sleeps bc it just harder for me to feels comfortable bc the breathing issues . When my allergies take over it even worse as I can’t control myself n pushed myself into breathing with my mouth too . I knew it a problematic for me and something I need to take care of it before I get older . Glad I run into the last few days to raised awareness. Im sure there so many peoples out there who had this without knowing like me as we always think nose surgery is for cosmetics not health reasons in this
Thanks sir i like this video
I believe I need this. I can feel it in my nose and if I go to sleep on my left shoulder my right nostril gets plugged if I'm in my left I breath normally....so frustrating
I just had mine on Friday I go Thursday to get the splints out I can already tell how I’m gonna breath I’m so happy my nose bleed about 3 days off and on you use a bunch saline spray for your nose to keep it flowing you spit up a bunch of back blood I’m your throat overall I have pain meds I can wait you want regret it at all don’t let anyone scare you I can now lay on my back and get clear full breaths
I just got this done two days ago... I don't see any stitching or changes on appearance and very little pain except a bit harder to breath. That's why i search this up lol, I feel like i have recovered now in the fourth day after surgery. Having covid was way worse than this as far as i can remember
Just had this surgery + turbinate reduction + polyp removal. I would say the first 2 days when you have that nasal pack are the worst as your whole face like pains af. After pack removal I am feeling less painful but I still can't breathe through my nose as it's congested. In my case I have to visit doctor after every week for cleaning purpose. And secondly dont worry if you cant speak because of throat pain.
After getting those pads out (it was so painful) I still have silicone things inside my nostrils stitched to my septum and idk why no one mentions smth like that. I'm afraid when it's time to remove those how painful it will. I just got septoplasty and turbinates reduction and I can't breathe still after a week, only through mouth which makes me chock.
@@chryssagian so after silicone splits removal, were you able to breathe ?
@@TheMemeCat1 I'm almost 40 days post op and still have issues with infections, sore throat and breath is getting better at least. The silicone thingies were like a skeleton around my nostril so my insides heal nice without any issues. Like u put cast for ur broken bones. If u have the chance for a doctor to attend to u through this then u gonna be fine.
did you notice improvement in energy levels less fatigue motivation anything?
This great channel ❤️❣️👍🏻
I had this and a turbinate reduction yesterday. Today I’ve been on the verge of a complete mental collapse. The pain and burning is unreal. The septum was severely deviated to the right and pretty far back so they had to do what’s shown at 1:29 in the video … except they had to remove bone far back as well. On top of that the splints and not being able to blow your nose amplifies the pain, burning and discomfort.
Last month I had a fistula repair which I am just about healed up from … I’d rather have 10 of those back to back than this. If you know you know that fistula repairs are just brutal … nasal/sinus surgery is just worst. I had my tonsils out 25 years ago and I’d rather experience that again than what they had to do to my nose.
I know it’s subjective and just my experience so take it as that but if you’re getting this done be as mentally prepared as you can and try to have someone around to do the bulk of help/taking care of you at least for the first few days.
What happens if you need to sneeze and how are you doing now? Does it look and feel better now? Can you breathe and smell properly?
@@Anw4rr10r open mouth sneezes only, I have proper smell and can breathe well out of my left nostril. Pretty much no pain anymore but still lots of mucus production.
I had a problem though. The day after the stints were removed the front of the septum popped and bowed into the right nostril which has prevented almost all breathing through that nostril. I’ll need a revision and might need a full rhinoplasty because of this. I can feel it pressing on the inner right nostril which is not painful but pretty uncomfortable and you can see on the outside where it’s pushing into the nostril flare.
man i hope you’re doing better, that’s gotta suck, i wonder why your septum popped back out of place so soon? wishing a quick recovery and success with any further surgeries 🤞
The video just fixed my stuffed up nose
Very good 😍
Sir please make a video on exzima, why it happen, how it happen, how to cure exzima. I have been suffering from exzima from atleast 5years and i am not getting well from this. Please it would be grateful 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
I had this surgery with turbinate reduction done 18 months ago here in the UK. I had NO pain after surgery. Some discomfort, but NO pain. You can't blow your nose for a week, and you won't be able to lie completely flat for about 4 weeks because you will feel everything pulling in your nose. I had no splints, and no packing (they don't use it here anymore) I had to wear a pad underneath my nose for about a week to mop up the goo. I was passing a lot of scabs through my nose for about a month (they don't warn you about this, and some are pretty big) but after 4 weeks it suddenly stopped and that was it. Even 18 months on, I still can't believe I can breathe so well through my nose. My sleep has improved, and the hayfever season was a LOT more tolerable. I wish I'd had this done 20 years ago, rather than waiting until my 40s. I have a low pain threshold and was amazed I was in no pain. I took zero painkillers after the operation as they were not needed.
How much did it cost you?
Might be 3000
Is it covered by NHS?
@@Ryo42526 yes
Dose ur nose swelling?
I had this procedure done 2x’s about 15 years apart and neither time did it help me with my stuffy nose or help reduce snoring.
Many years of particular same side sleeping on heighten pillow causes for devieted septum , needs to sleep opposite side sleeping for some years ,try to straight it , first need to nose x-ray for notice the bend position .. turbines are position changes according to septum position..
ahhh the splint removal was the best feeling ever!
يعطيك العافية يا دكتور 0:49
Very much useful
Please do a video too of surgery for crooked nose to one side🙏
I actually need this. I almost always bleed from one side of my nose when the weather is dry.
You need the veins cauterized with silver nitrate
@@gIozell1 I have already tried that twice. But due the the curved septum the air friction is high when breathing so the problem keeps coming back in my case.
I highly advise you not to go with septoplasty, rather go with ballon procedure. May 2021 I had septoplasty surgery…. Main reason I went through the surgery was one side of my nose was always runny and I was not able to breath through two nostrils properly at times. After surgery I waited patiently 3 months hoping it will take longer to see results. Truth is it’s May 2022 …. Last one year has been the most horrible time I have ever experienced in my entire life. After disucting the tribunate it drys up nose and you will never feel normal. I struggle every second! The only way I can feel little better is by consuming one meal a day, I don’t know why that works but it does. That doesn’t mean I am able to breath normally… it just doesn’t kill me completely. No one should go through this
@@vandanadeereddy3196 thanks for the advice. I'm keep applying some ointment to prevent it from drying. I hope you get better over time that sounds really troublesome.
I have dark circles, can dns be the reason behind it
Just had this surgery done less then a week ago, super painful the first couple days but it’s subsiding now, stints in both my nostrils are slightly annoying but not too bad. Lots of leakage from both nostrils. Nose feels super stuffed up , top teeth very sore.
any updates???
Nose is great! Can breathe the best of my life. Although the first few weeks after surgery were painful it was worth it.
@@robynrichard2000 Does your doctor advise you to use nasal spray for Life time after this surgery?
I love it
I'm having my septoplasty done next Tuesday, along with removing a large retention cyst from my right maxiliary sinus sack!
How was it?
@@richardwheelerrw Long story, basically had to be cancelled due to antibiotics I was given for what they thought was a UTI/enlarged prostate!
In the past when had antibiotics for that was fine. I was given Ciprofloxacin and whinin a week got bad then really bad side effects with swelling/heart palpatations etc
so my op had to be cancelled due to it when I turned up for it they said they would sort out another date.
I was going to cancel anyway-as thought this isn't a very good idea while dealing with this and going under general-so now going to get it done with local anesthetic with maybe sedation so that is being sorted out!
But I'm goign to get the Endoscopic Sinus Sugery done first then next year sort my devaited septum out!
Where you from??
I am in the UK
They won’t do FESS with Septoplasty under Sedation here
Don’t like the idea of GA mind you I base that on my experience back in the 1980’s
Guess GA is more advanced now
@@richardwheelerrw Hey Richard, had my Balloon Sinuplasty and turbinate reduction yesterday on Local with some sedation!
So now been taking my saline rinse and nasal spray, have to take them for 2 weeks then got a follow up appointment with Vik Veer 👍🏻
It will take 6 weeks for the infection to fully go out my system though.
@@richardwheelerrw Yea went well, yea sedation was effective-only felt a couple of tight pinches a few times and that was it and him moving around doing stuff.
was in there for like 40 mins but felt like 10 mins-times goes fast with sedation lol
I am having this surgery tomorrow. Will keep everyone posted. Update : Surgery went perfect. Discomfort for few days but worth it. I Feel like why did I waste my time not doing it? Haven't had any headache or cold since I did surgery.
How did it go??
How did it goo sir
Should go for it. Haven't had any issue since surgery.
Sir can you tell me if you can breathe 100% good without problems after surgery?
@@khamardhavalCan you break normally through both nostrils?
I wish my nasal septum was the only thing crooked, my case is very complicated because my nasal bone is harshly deviated too! :(
I just had this surgery like 6 hours ago and I’m home doing well. I’m a big baby so for me to say the surgery wasn’t as bad as I thought take my word you can handle it. I’m still drowsy but I’m doing good. My only complaint is I have a massive headache and some stuffiness but my doctor gave me some nasal spray to only use for 7 days twice a day. I still haven’t used it and I’m going to try not to use it. Other than that if you’re on the fence about this surgery please do it 😊 2:13.
Did it pain you?
I'm so afraid to do it.
Its probably an antibiotic steroid spray which will prevent any kinds of infection to get in your nose
Honestly might be getting this done too and I'm so scared. I heard it takes 3 or 4 months to recover. How's it going?
Does insurance cover this procedure?
Will this change nose shape? I love my hubbies nose but I want him to get his breathing checked. He snores and seems to never be able to breath normally from his nose. He’s a mouth breather. He’s also nervous about pursuing answers because of the healing time and pain. He can take pain but gets freaked out easily with needles and blood.
Just got this done recently, man oh man I cannot WAIT to get the splints removed. Constant congestion
Update? 👀
@@ClassyNasty removing the splints was heaven on earth. Breathing again with complete functionality in my repaired nostril and nasal passage. Been almost 2 months since the procedure and have never breathed as effortlessly as I am since having it done!
@@nichel7576 hi was your septom extremely deviated ? Also did you always have a congested nostril trough out the day if so did the surgery fix it?
@@kichki777 my doctor said that "it was one of the worst deviations he's ever seen in his 20+ year career" as a nose surgeon so I would definitely say it was severe. The surgery definitely fixed any and all congestion. The only congestion I get now is from pollen or if I have a common cold. One thing I do notice is that I do get a lot more boogers, but that may be from pollen season. Anyways, the surgery has been a huge beneficial impact on my life, sleeping and breathing in general.
Just had this done 2 days ago.. the recovery is not what they made it to seem. I can't wait for this week to pass so I can get to breathing normal again.. I also developed a low fever which my nurse said it's because I'm not hydrating. So please please drink water..
Hello,Pls do a video on thick uterus lining affecting pregnancy the causes and treatment plsss,Thank you.
If they remove part of the septum, would this create a similar situation to a septal perforation?
Does it affect the shape of the nose?
So, I have a deviated septum and can usually only breath out of one nostril at a time. When I'm lying down on one side, I can literally feel gravity close one nostril while the other opens up. Would this procedure correct this and allow me to breath out of both nostrils all the time? This one nostril breathing has been my normal my entire life. I can't imagine what it would be like to breath out of both nostrils simultaneously. SO much more oxygen to the brain! :D
I have the same exact problem it’s so annoying
I just went to the nose Dr and had a CT scan. My septum has a crazy bend in it which is part of the problem but the gravity thing is from some glands you have in your nose and the fluid switches from one side to the other I believe. When I get my operation they’re gonna take care of both though I’m not sure exactly what they do about the glands
Fam..... Exactly me. It's 12am can't sleep and had to start checking the surgery procedure.... Never knew what it's like to breath normally my whole life..... I just pary this wold help me. I will and am so thankful to God
@@vinced6165 update?
@@sevelenth3748 sucked for the first few days, after a week they take the tubes out and I was able to breathe so good it was overwhelming. Sooooo worth it
Why my septum deviating in the first place like bro get with the program we NEED you straight dawg
My problem with me is that one of my nostrils is always blocked at random. Deviated septum should only block one specific nostril, but for me, one gets blocked and then the other at random.
Did you find anything out about this cuz i got the same problem😭😭😊
@@rehansyed7467 It's most likely a deviated septum. Surgery is required.
After my cold, my nose has literally been killing me. I contacted my doctor few months ago and she did a check up and all but didnt find anything. i believe i have deviated nose but i dont. My right nostril is always closed of and my left side is barely open so i breath thorugh my mouth. i know this sounds disgusting but when i feel up in my nose it feels really off? like something big is on one side. should i contact a new doctor?
I can’t breath out of my nose properly/ quietly without feeling the sensation of being slightly blocked/uncomfortable in one ear, it hasn’t got any mucus inside of my nose but it’s always stuffy. If I don’t have a shower in the mornings (I always do regardless) but if I don’t the day is completely ruined not that I’m dirty but because I feel extra congested. I’ve been told I sound like dearth Vader sometimes, only when I breath from my nose though as I don’t wanna stand around breathing from my mouth!
Any idea what’s going on with me, I will book. A Appoinement with the gp but I always feel nervous so I don’t book it. I don’t want it to get any worse so i just carry on but thought I’d ask for some advice on here too from others!
I have this surgery next week. Will give an update afterwards when its completed!
yo, how’d it go?
@@itsdragoninawagon Oh man, its so blessed. Got the surgery done under an hour, was under anesthesia. First couple weeks my nose was in pain and did bleed abit here n there as well, completely normal. Once I got the stents removed, ahhh man felt like I was breathing pure air. Now I dont get any bleeding and I do nasal rinsing everyday (doctor recommended) and I breathe well from my nose!
@@saplingtrack nice!! same here with the splints, as soon as they were out i took a deep breath and it felt like i had a third lung LOL
@@itsdragoninawagonbro i can't wait for that , just here 13 hrs after the op , and i can't sleep its 3 am ⚰️, hope it get well soon
@@itsdragoninawagonhello what were your symptoms before the surgery?
How long is the recovery time?
thanks a lot.
THANKS THANKS THANKS THANKS THANKS THANKS THANKS THANKS THANKS THANKS THANKS THANKS THANKS THANKS THANKS THANKS THANKS THANKS.
I am a waiter for this video only.....
i liked ur video and subscribe ur channel.
I will be having this surgery in future. Wish me best of luck.
I want my surgery to be successful in first attempt.
I was thinking about doing this because one of my nostrils can't breath but after looking at this I realized I think I can live without it
I had this surgery done last week Glad am able to breathe from both sides If you're confused do it babe i know its painfull but worth it
I have a bump on my right nose ( deviated nasal septum but I think I actually have crooked cartilage) so I haven't been able to breathe properly from my right nose hope to get something done in future about it.
SMT operation video please
I wish I could afford the surgery I'd totally get it
insurance
@@jeremyvarghese6909 insurance doesn't cover personal costs
Insurance might cover it if you really have problems breathing, the insurance won´t consider it as an aesthetical surgery.
No Brasil é chamado de desvio de septo
Does the snoring reduced immediately after surgery?or months after surgery?
Weird how my nose hurts so bad to the touch and you can tell my nose has a deviated septum because ebmven my primary doctor told me because I told her how it hurts and I can't breath from one side and the ent I went to go see said that everyone has a deviated septum and that I need to apply neosporin to the top of my nose and see if it gets better. I've been suffering for 7 years 😫 with daily pain, it hurts when I touch my s
Nose or move it slightly and he wants me to apply neosporin on top of the nose
I can inhale perfectly but when i touched it, i can feel irregularities, should i consult a doctor or an xray for this
I'm also waiting for oppration for divtated septm, because of covid there is such a backlog. Which is very frustrating.
Pls do a vedio on ankylosing spondylitis
You have much more worse grammar than me 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😎😎😎😎😎
Getting the splints removed was wild.
Will it also fix a bent nose from the exterior?
No, I remember asking about this but it won't. That's a different type of surgery, I think it is a Rhynoplasty instead.
I had this surgery just yesterday, i needed it as my breathing problems grew bigger every year and even affected my sleeping habits, so far my nose feels painful but im sure it will be worth it after a week
yo me too! I wish you a fast recovery
@@its8oclock543 thank you! Wishing you a speedy recovery as well 🙏🏼
let me know how it is after some time - I will be getting one in some time
did u have like a curved nose from a side and the other side flat nose?
@@basselbarakat3670 my nose was looking straight on the outside, but wasn't on the inside
Is it a painful process ?
If I have a really deviated septum will it remove the dorsal bump?
Thank you for this. I have a deviated septum as well. Sleep apnea. Sinuses are clogged-Causing my hearing to now be muffled. Im seriously contemplating having this done. I’m Nervous about going through this. I feel like that first day of recovery will get my anxiety going high and I won’t be able to sleep. How long is the bandage on your nose for afterwards? I remember my father getting this done back in the late 70s when I was a little kid, and he had those gauze bandages and medical tape taped To his face for weeks.
Modern Septoplasty is much more controlled and the bandages shouldn't be on more than a few days. If it is just a septoplasty being performed there will be some gauze at the nostrils to stop blood but none higher up the nose.
@@loopydoopi How many days it takes to recover and can I get back to work in 2days after this surgery?
@@loopydoopi was it worth it?
@@loopydoopi do u hv any complaints of headache n allergies after ur surgery....?
Hi, I literally just got it done this morning. I can already breathe out of my two nostrils.
It happens so often a lot on one side of breathing and bending septum
One will move to other (right) side after release of breath
The Septum will move to left to blocked
I was BORN with a deviated septum (seriously). But the septum keeps a nostril wiiide open so that I has no difficulty in breathing even though my septum is bent adversely. I’m ok without a surgery 👍👍
We can solve this problem using exercise
Please tell
Can't believe Namjoon rapped that way with a deviated septum 🥺
Is it possible to narrow the both side nasal bone and how? Plzz tell me because I am only one having this type of problem in whole world
I am going to have this surgery
Me 22
@@zaynab8745 Did you got your septoolasty?
Just had the surgery 3 hours ago, waiting to see how it turns out 🥺
Does its pain?
i wanna do one so bad i dont know why i have a deviated septum i think it went during growing up ... this makes me chills btw. im only sixteen and the price damn.... maybe i will wait until 18
I hope everyone can see this.
I have had a deviated septum since I was 16. I'm 39 now. I have to lay on my left. Whenever my body turns to the right, I wake up to a dry mouth because I couldn't breathe. My body instinctively opens my mouth to breathe. I'm trying to get a CT scan done so the Dr can see how bad it is. I'm hoping to get tje surgery done in September. Its so hard to breathe at times, especially when I catch a cold.
Does it change your nose shape?
What about ENS? Is there a risk for ENS?
