What Is a Deviated Septum and How Do You Know If You Have One?

A deviated septum occurs when the wall between your nasal passages is off-center, which can lead to symptoms such as:

๐Ÿ”น Difficulty breathing through one or both nostrils
๐Ÿ”น Persistent nasal congestion
๐Ÿ”น Frequent nosebleeds
๐Ÿ”น Snoring or noisy breathing during sleep
๐Ÿ”น Facial pressure or recurring sinus infections

An ENT specialist can examine your nasal passages to determine if a deviated septum is present.

In some cases, treatment may include medications to manage symptoms. When symptoms are more severe, a surgical procedure called septoplasty may be recommended to straighten the septum and improve airflow.

If youโ€™re experiencing any of the following symptoms, it may be time to schedule a visit with an ENT specialist:

๐Ÿ”ด Redness or Swelling โ€“ The ear may appear red, tender, or sensitive to the touch. In more severe cases, bleeding can occur.
๐Ÿ˜ฃ Ear Pain or Popping โ€“ While occasional pressure changes (like during a flight) are normal, ongoing or severe pain should be evaluated.
๐Ÿ”‡ Hearing Loss โ€“ Inflammation or fluid buildup can lead to temporary hearing loss, which may become permanent if left untreated.

Prompt care can help prevent complications and protect your hearing. โš•๏ธ๐ŸŒŸ

Revision sinus surgery is a follow-up procedure for people whoโ€™ve already had sinus surgery but still experience symptoms like congestion, pain, or infections. Its goal? ๐ŸŒŸ
โœ… Improve breathing
โœ… Reduce discomfort
โœ… Prevent future infections

๐Ÿ’ก Why Might You Need Revision Sinus Surgery?

About 10-15% of patients who undergo sinus surgery may eventually need a revision procedure. Common reasons include:
๐Ÿ”น Persistent or recurring sinus infections
๐Ÿ”น Inadequate opening of sinus cavities
๐Ÿ”น Scar tissue formation
๐Ÿ”น Nasal polyps returning
๐Ÿ”น Underlying health issues (like allergies or a deviated septum)
๐Ÿ”น Failure of previous procedures

Revision sinus surgery can offer relief if your previous surgery didnโ€™t fully resolve your symptoms.

Allergies can contribute to a sore throat through several mechanisms:
๐Ÿ”น Postnasal Drip: Allergic reactions stimulate mucus production, which can drip down the back of the throat and cause irritation.
๐Ÿ”น Inflammation: Allergic inflammation in the nasal passages and throat can create a sore or scratchy sensation.
๐Ÿ”น Coughing: Frequent coughing to clear irritants can strain the throat muscles and exacerbate discomfort.

Strategies to Relieve a Sore Throat from Allergies:
๐Ÿ”น Maintain hydration to help thin mucus and soothe throat irritation
๐Ÿ”น Use a humidifier to add moisture to the air, especially during sleep
๐Ÿ”น Gargle with warm salt water for temporary relief
๐Ÿ”น Consider over-the-counter antihistamines or decongestants, as appropriate (consult with your ENT provider)
๐Ÿ”น Minimize exposure to irritants, such as smoke, and keep windows closed during high pollen seasons
