Septoplasty at ISWARYA HOSPITAL
A deviated septum can cause significant breathing problems, chronic sinus infections, and discomfort. Septoplasty is a surgical procedure designed to correct a deviated septum, improving airflow through the nose and relieving associated symptoms. At ISWARYA HOSPITAL, located in OMR, Chennai, our skilled ENT specialists perform septoplasty using advanced, minimally invasive techniques to provide safe and effective relief for patients with nasal obstruction.
What is a Deviated Septum?
The nasal septum is the thin wall made of cartilage and bone that separates the two nostrils. When this septum is off-center or crooked, it’s called a deviated septum. A deviated septum can block airflow through one or both nostrils, leading to breathing difficulties, snoring, sleep apnea, and chronic sinus infections.
Common Symptoms of a Deviated Septum:
- Difficulty breathing through one or both nostrils
- Frequent nasal congestion
- Recurrent sinus infections
- Snoring or sleep disturbances
- Nosebleeds
- Facial pain or pressure
When is Septoplasty Recommended?
Septoplasty is typically recommended when a deviated septum causes significant symptoms that impact your quality of life, and conservative treatments like medications do not provide relief. At ISWARYA HOSPITAL, our ENT specialists will evaluate your symptoms and medical history to determine if septoplasty is the right solution for you.
Septoplasty Procedure at ISWARYA HOSPITAL
Septoplasty is a straightforward and effective surgical procedure designed to straighten the nasal septum. The procedure is minimally invasive, and our experienced ENT surgeons use advanced techniques to ensure a quick recovery and minimal discomfort.
Procedure Overview:
- Pre-operative Assessment: Before surgery, our ENT specialists will conduct a thorough evaluation, including a nasal exam, imaging tests, and a discussion of your symptoms and treatment goals.
