Anyone have small bones removed under Inferior Turbinate
Anyone have the short op procedure where the underlying bone i removed. This small bone is under the sub-mucosa of the inferior turbinate. My EENT said that this may help provide a little wider nasal passage for me. I have had 2 Radio Frequency reductions of the turbinates over the past 4 years and a 3rd one cannot be performed-will do no good. I simply have a narrow passage i my nostrils. Tried various steroidal and NS nasal sprays to little avail.
There will not be a resection or removal of the existing turbinates.
Love to hear from anyone who has gone through this: the pain, post-op bleeding, the recovery and results in terms of percentage better breathing, complications, etc..
Sincerely
Peter
