Recently, Liang, a 21-year-old student from Foshan, Guangdong, began to have repeated nasal congestion 5 years ago without obvious triggers, showing bilateral alternation, intermittent runny nose, sneezing, accompanied by sleep snoring and mouth breathing. Sometimes nasal congestion seriously affects sleep, and this time I came to Dr. Zheng Ligang for ENT in the hope of completely solving this problem.
After endoscopy and CT scan, it was found that the nasal septum was severely deviated and bilateral inferior turbinate hypertrophy was found, and the effect of general drug treatment was not good, and thorough treatment required nasal endoscopic minimally invasive surgery. After consideration, surgical treatment is decided.
After admission, endoscopic nasal septum correction and bilateral inferior turbinate radiofrequency ablation were arranged, and the deviated nasal septum was corrected endoscopically through the anterior nostrils after intubation under general anesthesia. Endoscopically low-temperature plasma was used to reduce the bilateral inferior turbinates, and the whole operation process was very smooth. There was no obvious discomfort and no surgery-related complications in the postoperative rounds.
After the operation, I was re-examined three times in the outpatient clinic, and the symptoms of nasal congestion have been solved, and there is no special discomfort, so it is recommended to exercise more and sleep well.
If you have any questions about nasal congestion, please leave a message and communicate with Dr. Zheng Ligang for further communication.
