Septoplasty is a surgical procedure performed to correct a deviated nasal septum, which is the displacement of the wall between the nostrils that can cause breathing difficulties, nasal congestion, and recurrent sinus infections.
A deviated septum occurs when the nasal septum, the thin wall of bone and cartilage that separates the two nostrils, is crooked or misaligned. This condition is common, with some degree of deviation affecting up to 80% of people. While many individuals with a deviated septum may not experience any noticeable symptoms, others suffer from significant nasal obstruction that impairs their breathing.
Although rare, infections can occur at the surgical site. Antibiotics may be prescribed to prevent or treat infections.
Some patients may experience nosebleeds during the recovery period, but these usually subside as the nose heals.
While septoplasty is performed internally, minor scarring inside the nose may occur, though it typically does not cause any noticeable issues.
At TAH Global Healthcare, we take every precaution to minimise these risks by employing the latest surgical techniques and providing personalised care for each patient.
Discuss nasal congestion, sinus issues, and breathing difficulties.
Assess the septum and nasal passages for deviations.
Use of a small camera to examine nasal structures.
CT scans or X-rays for detailed views of the nose.
Medications or sprays tried before considering surgery.
After septoplasty, it is essential to maintain the results and ensure long-term nasal health. Patients are advised to protect the nose from injury, especially in the weeks following surgery, and to use saline nasal sprays regularly to keep the passages moist and reduce dryness or irritation. Following up with an ENT specialist is important to ensure the septum remains properly aligned and to monitor for any potential complications.
For many patients, the improvements in breathing, reduced sinus issues, and enhanced quality of life following the procedure are long-lasting.
