Nasal Polyp History :: Nasal Dryness And Pain In Left Eye


Jan 19, 2016

Two weeks ago, I woke up with pain in my left nostril.  I thought it was a pimple and would go away, but the pain is shooting into my left eye and temple area off and on.  Is this nasal dryness I am experiencing or could it be something more serious?  It is strange that I suddenly felt it overnight.  I have history of polyp in this area but wasn't big enough to cause a concern 2 years ago.  I am trying to keep area moist with argan and almond sweet/vitamin e oil but hear that I shouldn't keep doing that, lipoid pneumonia may result in repeat use.  Saline spray makes it worse.  I will go in eventually to check it out, but this ENT Dr. I have usually blows me off.  He is not the compassionate type and to see another specialist is an hour away.

Deviated Septum Operation? Nasal Obstruction (breathing Difficulties) And Nasal Drip

I have suffered with Nasal obstruction(breathing difficulties)and Nasal Drip(continuous mucus draining down the back of throat)for over 8years and have been prescribed all the usual sprays,anxiety pills,breathing strips, etc.

My latest consultant advises I need an operation to treat a deviated septum(restricted airway on one side of nose).

I was also told by one consultant that I had collapsed airways due to my age(70) and nothing could be done.

Has anyone had this operation,and if so, did you have relief from nasal drip and improved breathing through the airways.

My quality of life is poor,with low energy during the day and nighttime breathing problems that cause me to be awake most of the time.

I am looking to make contact with someone that has had surgery or experiencing the same symptoms as mine.

Cancer :: Hard (bone-like) Lump On The Left Side Of My Nasal Bridge?

I developed a hard (bone-like) lump on the left side of my nasal bridge 3 weeks ago after falling asleep on my couch. It's very painful and aches all the time, even without touching it. It's grown a bit bigger as the weeks have gone by.

Now, I have developed symptoms of a sinus infection and chest infection, that won't go away.

I'm constantly tired and my immune system is the lowest it's ever been, seeing as in the last few months, I've needed an operation to remove a pilonidal sinus, my appendix and some ovarian cysts (that were haemorrhaging), and straight after, this!

Other symptoms include -
A loss of appetite
Weight loss
Just feeling blue all the time
Headaches
Fever
Pain under my left eye
Very large lymph nodes in my neck

Is it cancer? Especially if I did nothing to aggravate the bump??

I'm a 19 year old girl, who doesn't smoke or drink.

I would love to know if other people are experiencing this, or if anyone can help me figure out what this is, because I'm sick of being sick and of being in hospital, and would like to get on with life.

How Often Can You Take Nasal Decongestants?

I suffer from nasal polyps and a lot of pain/inflammation, especially in my upper sinuses/around sides of my head/behind my ear. Over the last couple of months I have particularly been congested, unusually to the point where it was affecting my breathing through my nose. Last week I decided to try an oxymetazoline nasal spray (Vicks), and whilst it doesn't completely alleviate my symptoms, it has significantly opened up my nasal passages and I can breathe easily again. I also feel that it may be allowing my fluticasone propionate steroid nasal drops (Flixonase nasules) to get further into my sinuses. I am going to stop taking it today, as the instructions say not more than 7 days, but I was wondering when I would be able to start taking it again safely without risk of rebound? ie. can I have a schedule of eg. 1 week on, 1 week off, or 1 week a month when I take it?

Also, is it safe to switch between that and oral decongestants such as pseudoephedrine, or if I go from one to the other then that is effectively the same problem as taking it for longer from the point of view of rebound?

Exercise After Nasal Cauterization?

I had my nose cauterized not even 3 hours ago, it was the left side and I have the right side due in two weeks. Since I got home I've been researching what I can expect etc and I've read a few articles that suggest avoiding exercise for the next week or two? Is this necessary? I go to the gym 6 days a week and do a mixture of long runs, short and intense interval runs, weights and core work. When can this be resumed? I also train in boxing however I was fully expecting to have to put this on hold for however long it takes for my nose to heal but when will I be able to carry on with this and get hit without risking undoing what the doctor has done to my nose? On a separate note, my nose is quite sore, its extremely runny and I feel like I have a cold, when can I expect to feel like my normal self?

My Nasal Polyps Experience

The nasal polyps were very unpleasant, causing continual blocked nose together with the sensation of the polyp moving as I breathed. I had them removed by surgery and it was completely pain free throughout, although the anaesthetic injection was a bit sharp. I had no postoperative pain at all and only a trace of bleeding.

ENT :: Nasal Passage Is Gradually Getting Narrower

I have had a breathing for about two years now, and every year it gets worst. My nasal passage is gradually getting narrower (i think) because i have realised that my fitness is getting affected this. I used to be able to run all game (soccer) but now after about 30 mins, i'm out of breath. i have not changed my diet or anything else. Most of the time i'm picking my nose just to try and open it and it very uncomfortable especially when i'm going to sleep. I can not breath at all. I don't know what kind of problem i have but in need answers really quick before it ruins my future!

Allergies :: Removal Of Nasal Concha, Disadvantages?

I have some problems with allergies (mites, etc.). In addition to some other nasal ailments.

I shall therefore be cut away my the nasal concha, but what is the disadvantage of removing those? I do not think the actual surgery, but the nasal concha must surely have a function? Perhaps it’s a function that I'm going to miss when they are removed.

My native language is not English, am I not quite sure if nasal concha is the correct English word to use. The latin word is concha nasalis.

Nasal Basal Cell Carcinoma Removal

I have recently undergone 12 weeks of trauma, including 4 operations under general anaesthetic for a basal cell carcinoma on the side of my nose.  It is a legacy from one I had removed 10 years ago, which wasn't totally removed.  I went to my GP last year about this lump and she said it was just scar tissue.  In February I felt uneasy about this and went back and she referred me to the Maxillofacial Department at our local hospital.  I saw the Consultant on 12th May, 5 days after I buried my Dad and my feet never hit the ground until my final op. on 27th July.  I had a paramedian skin flap op. where they take a vein from your forehead attached to the skin graft and attach it to your nose for 5 weeks then snip the bit outside and and put the vein back in with a couple of stitches.  I am still in a bit of shock at the speed this was all done and I was wondering if anyone out there has had this done this way.

Nasal Polyps - Nasonex Spray, Melrose Oil And Lozenges?

I have nasal polyps and what a life-ruining condition. I can't breathe. I can't sleep. I have trouble eating & breathing, drinking & breathing. Sometimes it's difficult to speak clearly. Kissing & humming are difficult. I go through oodles of kleenex. I take antihistamines, use Nasonex spray, take Melrose oil internally, enjoy "Halls" lozenges. I've tried Prednisone, but the side effects are too dangerous for me. I wish I could get some relief. AND it is different every day. Some days my nose is totally plugged and thumping and the next day my nose is dripping, running and I can't stop blowing. It's never normal. Again, I wish I could get rest & relief.
