I was in a car wreck when I was 16 - no seatbelt, hit the windshield with my face. They said I had a slight crack in my nose but didn't need to do anything about it. I'm 48 now.
Over the years my breathing has gotten worse and I wake up most nights with one side of my nose stopped up. And I snore now too.
The dr. said that due to the wreck my septum is shifted over and the only way to fix it is a septoplasty. They put the septum back in place and correct the turbinates.
I've never talked to anyone who has had this kind of surgery so I am just wondering if anyone on here has had it done and what their experience was with it. Thanks in advance.
