would a surgery on my deviated septum cure my sinus trouble?

Alan — Sun, 02 May 2010 09:44:42 +0000

I constantly have sinus infections and have tried every remedy( netti pot, etc). an ear nose and throat doctor did a scan of my sinuses but found no blockage but said I have a deviated septum. He could not say that it would fix my sinus drainage problem. Does anyone have expertise or advice? I have been struggling with this for years. Thanks

I had surgery for a deviated septum 15 years ago, and I still have debilitating allergies. Any advice?

I have tried using a neti pot to flush my sinuses with saline solution, but all too often the water refuses to flow (even if I have the correct alignment, and wait for 5 minutes there is not budging!). Usually antihistamines will provide some relief, but right now I have no relief with them. Does anyone have any advice for me?

Can my deviated Septum come back or return to the other side of the nose?

Alan — Wed, 31 Mar 2010 12:38:48 +0000

I had surgery 1 year ago (almost to the day) My nose is now plugged again even after the sinus rinse and the sprays. My headache has returned but on the other side. If I go to the doctor, will he think I am crazy…or can this happen. The surgery was worth it for the relief I got on my right side?
Has anyone experienced this?

Might I have a deviated septum or a nasal polyp?

Alan — Sat, 27 Mar 2010 14:12:28 +0000

I am constantly have issues with a post nasal drip cough and sinus headaches. Headaches get worse after exercise and being outdoors for long periods of time. My dr has prescribed Zithromax for my cough, and I have used nasal sprays for the sinus pressure but the results are short term relief at best.

Im wondering if its time to see a specialist of if theres any other treatments I can try.

Sinus Problems, Deviated Septum And Blow To The Nose?

Alan — Wed, 25 Nov 2009 07:39:42 +0000

I’ve been to my doctor about 3 times in the past couple of years with sinus trouble complaint. Something I got off my father. I began having trouble at around the age of 17, and each time i’ve gone he’s given me some sinus relief spray, or a stronger one when i returned with thr same problem. My septum is slightly deviated to the left, but i’ve never thought much of it. On friday I had a fall and my nose received a blow. Since then it’s been in considerable pain and feels constantly heavy. Breathing is difficult. Today I visited my doc again, he had a look at it and told me he didn’t see anything broken, and ended prescribing me tablets for congestion relief! Which isn’t even the issue.
Does anyone have any advice? Should I see someone else?I’ve become sick and tired of being given nasal sprays.
