Hey there guys! This video deals with a long standing issue that WAS a deviated septum! Primarily that and my enlarged turbinates that often obstructed my airways which was something I just got used to. (I was a total mouth breather!!) I got by but when there was a mold, issue it became unbearable. I couldn’t breathe at all, I got sudden asthma like attacks and needed to use an inhaler! I couldn't get my sinuses to drain AT ALL both bilaterally and on my forehead so I continuously got chronic sinus infections. None of the antibiotics helped me heal and some actually messed me up for a while. I was sent to an ENT and the rest is history. I will talk about my story and then speak about my procedure and recovery. I hope this video can help you if you are thinking about getting some of these procedures. Despite there being risks, I am SO unbelievably grateful that I did go through with it because I can actually BREATHE!! I can smell so much more as well, which I thought was impossible since my smelling wasn’t half bad! At any rate, I wish you well and please see the legend tabs down below if you’re looking of a specific topic. One more mention was that the humidifier helped so much post op as well! BOY what a difference it made.
Thanks so much for watching!
:) - Ale
