Thank you for the upload! I just got mine done, I'm on day 3 of post-op. I was VERY nervous for the surgery because I have severe obstructive sleep apnea and I was worried I would choke or have even worse breathing issues during recovery. I'm getting this surgery before I get fitted for my cpap, which I will 99% chance still need.

A few things for those looking to get the surgery. I didnt have any nausea post surgery, I didnt have a sore throat from the breathing tube. My 2 front teeth were sore post surgery but by the next day thsy were fine, it felt like have braces tightened, not bad at all pain wise. I already could breathe better after surgery. Day 1 had tons of drainage! Have lots of gauze, do the nose rinses, having a humidifier is handy, drink tons of fluid, DO NOT bend over. By day 3 I have almost no drainage, the congestion get bad day 2 and 3. Ears pop, cant breathe through your nose ,it feels like a bad head cold. But so far totally worth it so far. I mostly did this so I dont mouth breath while awake, my throat is so obstructed(i have a genetically narrow throat and "fat" tongue I was told by the ENT lol) I know I will still need a cpap to get actual restful sleep. Also having a clear nasal passage I can stop using the nose sprays, nose strips and not having a sore dry throat. Another thing that helped me was sleeping in a recliner, I have an electric one so it doesnt jolt forward or backwards. Even now recovering during surgery I slept 5hrs straight last night, I never do that! My wife said I wasnt snoring and during my sleep study they said I had an apnea attack every 30ish seconds. I can already tell this surgery will greatly help me and probably most with a deviated septum and inflammed turbinates.

Good to see you're doing better than a lot of other people. I'll be getting NON-desolvable stents (held in place by a stitch) that will be removed in 7 days.
I am getting this surgery tomorrow or next thursday. Waiting on insurance approval today. I am so scared!
3 QUESTIONS: I get fluid build up in my lungs, which may be from constant sinus infection, not sure. Hoping this will clear that up. (1)Could you cough or clear your lungs out right after surgery?  I just got to be able to clear my lungs out but I hope the surgery will stop the drainage into my lungs.
2) I live by myself. Any suggestions for me? Food, wise too?
3) is your nose still sore as of Aug 6th 2026?

Hello Lexi how is your eye is it better and how long was it before you can get some good sleep I'm having same surgery coming up soon 💯

Hi! I want to also get the same surgery you had this next year, did you notice any appearance changes do your nose? Like as straightening of the nose? My deviated septum and swollen turbinates makes my nose look a little different on my left vs right side, and I’m hoping that this surgery could make it even.

Hello! Do u know what method did they use on the turbinate surgery? Thank u very much!

Hello, your video is very informative and helpful. I'm post Op so just wanted to know did you use the saline spray in the beginning of your post Op journey and then the saline rinse?

October 13th is my surgery,  same as yours also a removal of a fungal ball, which must come out. Concerned about pain AND general anesthetic.  I get so sick, horrible vomiting from general anesthesia.  No matter what they give me, doesn't work to keep me from getting sick.

Its my 10th day post surgery i can breathe 50% from both my nostril. I now ant to know do you all sleep poor when you guys have use OXY nasal spray which is use to unblock your nose. i did lot of this srpay and because of this i got turbinate swollen and i think it also reduces sleep quality and gets hard to go in sleep.

Not much information! Just superficial ! How about length of surgery ? How about what they did ? How about if they put stents in your nose ? So many questions and no answers! Waste of time watching you , boring ! 👎
