nose surgery
Hello,
I have been here twice for a nasal surgery.
I am feeling better. The problem is that one side of my nose has healed a long time ago. The other side has not fully healed yet, and there are also many fibrin clots formed there. I saw my doctor 3 days ago and he said that the wound is closed but I still have scabs. And it will take a long time to heal. Is that the granulation tissue? Does he mean that the epithelialization is not yet complete?
What does that mean exactly? I still have some pain on that side and I feel like the side is different or empty compared to the other side. The doctor said that it will take a bit longer for the functions of the nose on the left side to return. I am very uncertain at the moment... I have difficulty breathing at night. I breathe poorly because my nostrils are asymmetrical. It is a very uncomfortable feeling. Does fibrin delay wound healing? I can't blow my nose. Nothing comes out. How long does it take for everything to normalize? Some say 6 to 12 months. I feel like I have an "empty nose". I had a sinus surgery with maxillary concha bullosa and mucotomy of the turbinates. Does the turbinate grow back after the mucotomy? He removed a bit of the lower mucosa, not the bones. Thank you very much for your response. Thank you for your answer.
