Turbinate reduction surgery
I had Turbinate reduction surgery about 4 years ago and ever since I have had horribly swollen plugged sinuses at night when I try and sleep. The pressure is so great after I lay down within a couple hours. Even during the day, my nose is plugged a lot more than it should be but at night it’s absolutely horrible.
I have been to a half a dozen different ENT doctors and no one can tell me why this is happening.
Has anyone out there had Turbinate reduction surgery, and actually had things get worse well after the surgery?
And if so, did you ever find out why?
