Septoplasty is a surgical procedure to correct a deviated septum, which is when the nasal wall is crooked and blocks airflow. It helps improve breathing, reduce nasal congestion, and prevent frequent sinus infections.
Turbinoplasty reduces the size of swollen nasal turbinates that block airflow. When done with septoplasty, it provides better long-term relief from nasal blockage and helps patients breathe comfortably.
FESS is a minimally invasive nose surgery that uses an endoscope to clear blocked sinuses. It is commonly performed for chronic sinusitis, nasal polyps, or repeated sinus infections to improve breathing and sinus drainage.
If you have repeated nosebleeds that don’t stop easily or occur without a clear cause, you should consult an ENT specialist. Persistent nose bleeding may require cauterization or minor nasal surgery for permanent relief.
Modern nose surgeries are safe and minimally invasive, especially when performed by experienced ENT surgeons. They are usually day-care procedures with quick recovery and minimal discomfort.
Most patients return to normal activities within 1–2 weeks after septoplasty or FESS. Mild nasal congestion and swelling may occur initially but improve gradually with proper care and follow-up.
