Deviation can be explained as the partition separating the two nostrils is not in the middle. In other words, it is not visible from the outside and means the curvature of the nose inside the nose.
When deviation occurs, there is a difference between the air flow through one nostril and the air flow through the other nostril. For this reason, flesh growth develops on the opposite side of the deviation. As a result, obstruction occurs in both nostrils.
When viewed from the outside, it means deformation, not deviation.
Nasal bone curvature or deviation describes a condition in which the nasal septum is curved or curved in an uneven manner. This condition is usually congenital or can occur as a result of nasal trauma. Nasal bone curvature can make it difficult for a person to breathe and cause various symptoms over time. Here is detailed information about nasal bone curvature:
Symptoms of nasal bone curvature may include the following conditions:
– Difficult breathing
– Frequent headaches
– Snoring
– Nasal congestion, especially when breathing through one nostril
– Chronic sinusitis (sinusitis)
– Nosebleeds
Nasal bone curvature is usually caused by abnormal growth or trauma to the bone or cartilage structure in the nose. Congenital factors can increase the risk of nasal bone curvature. In addition, blows to the nose or falls on the nose can also trigger deviation.
A health professional diagnoses nasal bone curvature by physical examination and imaging tests (usually endoscopy or computed tomography). Treatment options may include medications, nasal sprays or surgical intervention. Surgical correction is usually considered depending on the severity of symptoms and the patient’s general health.
After surgery, patients can usually return to their normal activities within a few days. However, the full recovery process can vary from person to person and it is important to follow certain guidelines in the post-surgical period. Regular follow-up visits are important to aid recovery as recommended by the doctor.
If you are experiencing symptoms of nasal bone curvature or are concerned about it, it is important to see a health professional. A professional assessment is key to proper diagnosis and treatment.
Nasal bone curvature is a condition that often affects quality of life. However, it can be managed with the correct diagnosis and appropriate treatment. If you have any concerns about nasal bone curvature, you can get more information and help by contacting a healthcare professional. Remember, giving due importance to your health can improve your quality of life.
