I have DNS and trouble breathing through my nose, no sneezing though. Can you check the CT scan I attached and let me know if I really need septoplasty surgery?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
A deviated septum, causing nasal obstruction and breathing difficulty, may or may not require surgery. A CT scan can help assess the severity of the deviation and guide treatment decisions. If the deviation is significant and causing symptoms like difficulty breathing, chronic sinus infections, or nasal obstruction impacting quality of life, septoplasty surgery might be recommended. However, if the deviation is mild and not causing significant symptoms, surgery might not be necessary. A consultation with an ENT (Ear, Nose, and Throat) specialist is crucial to determine the best course of action based on your specific situation and the CT scan results.

View allI've been dealing with some issues lately. After recovering from a skin infection last week, where I was on antibiotics and painkillers, I've now developed a canker sore on my tonsils and throat. It's making it really hard to eat or drink anything. Do you think this might be related to the medication I was on, or is it something else? What can I do to ease the discomfort?
That could be Tonsillitis, consume warm foods, visit ENT doctor for appropriate treatment.

My 4.5-year-old son is dealing with some breathing issues, and it seems like hes always breathing through his mouth due to enlarged adenoids. The ENT suggested surgery, and now I'm trying to wrap my head around this whole thing. What's this surgery about, particularly using the coblation technique? Is it really different from the normal surgical method? I'm torn between the two options and wonder if there are any side effects with the coblation technique. Any insights would really help!
