What are the symptoms of deviated nasal septum? Deviated nasal septum means that the nasal septum deviates from the midline and bends to one or both sides or forms a local protrusion. A deviated nasal septum can cause nasal dysfunction or cause nasal congestion on one side, headaches and other hazards. So what are the symptoms of deviated nasal septum? Let’s listen to the relevant introduction of Hanhou’s plastic surgery and beauty experts. The severity of symptoms of nasal septum deviation is related to the type and degree of nasal septum deviation. Depending on the direction of the deflection, there are "C"-shaped septal deviations that are biased to one side, and "S"-shaped ones that are biased to both sides. Depending on their shape, there are ridges (semi-circular protrusions) and rectangular protrusions (sharp protrusions). Two kinds. Dislocation of the nasal septal cartilage caused by trauma can sometimes protrude beyond the nasal vestibule. When the septum is highly deviated, the deflected part is often in close contact with the middle turbinate, which can cause middle meatus stenosis. For those with obvious nasal septum deviation, the size of the nasal cavities on both sides is significantly different. If one side of the nasal cavity is significantly narrow, the contralateral turbinate often has "compensatory hypertrophy". Generally speaking, the main symptoms of a deviated nasal septum are as follows: Symptom 1 of a deviated nasal septum: Nasal obstruction is often persistent. If one side is deflected into a "C" shape, it is a unilateral nasal obstruction, and if both sides are deflected into an "S" shape, it is a bilateral nasal obstruction. This is the most common symptom of a deviated nasal septum. Those with severe nasal congestion may have reduced sense of smell. Symptom 2 of a deviated nasal septum: Reflex headache. If the deviated part is located in the middle or inferior turbinate and contacts or even offsets the turbinate, it often causes headache on the same side and can also be one of the causes of nasal neuralgia. After intranasal dripping of vasoconstrictors or surface anesthesia of the nasal mucosa, headaches can be reduced or disappeared. Symptom 3 of deviated nasal septum: Increased nasal secretions. Deviated nasal septum stimulates the glands and increases nasal secretions. If secondary infection occurs, the nasal mucosa will be irritated and secretions will become hyperactive, mostly mucus or mucopurulent secretions. If accompanied by sinus infection , it is purulent. Symptoms of deviated nasal septum 4: Symptoms of adjacent organs copyright dedecms If the deviated part of the septum is located in the middle meatus and the corresponding part of the middle turbinate, it may compress and cause the middle turbinate to move outward or cause the middle turbinate bone to become excessively pneumatized and the mucous membrane to become thickened, which may cause obstruction. Drainage from the sinuses opening into the middle meatus. Over time, sinusitis can be induced and produce various symptoms. If the Eustachian tube ventilation and drainage is affected, tinnitus and hearing loss may occur. Symptom 5 of a deviated nasal septum: Epistaxis The mucosa on the convex surface, ridge or calcarus of the deviated septum is thin and is often stimulated by airflow and dust. The mucosa becomes dry and eroded, which is prone to epistaxis, but sometimes epistaxis can also be seen in deviated septum. Concave. What are the symptoms of deviated nasal septum? Through the above introduction, we understand that a deviated nasal septum can cause nasal congestion, recurring headaches and a series of symptoms that are not beneficial to your health, so a deviated nasal septum must be treated in time. Finally, Hanhou Hanhou plastic surgery experts remind everyone that it is best to go to a regular medical institution to correct a deviated nasal septum, which will be more secure.
