I am suffering from deviated nasal septum for my whole life. Everyone keeps telling me that septoplasty will solve my problem, but I am too scared to try. Wee, I am scared of any surgery. Have anyone here had septoplasty and would like to share experience?
I had performed Septoplasty to correct a deviated nasal septum when I was 17. I suffered a severe nasal trauma and had had breathing difficulties ever since, but I finally took some time and had a CAT scan performed and it was found that my septum was deviated by 26 degrees. I did the surgery and 10 days later and I could breathe well through both sides of my nose for the first time. No more sinus infections, arrested breathing during sleep or the negative pressure in my ears. My life and health have improved beyond words.
